Renting a boat in Schisma Eloundas: what to ask

Boat rentals in Schisma Eloundas put you on the water in a town where the coast is the main attraction. Several local operators run trips and hire boats from the small port and the waterfront, so the choice comes down to the kind of day you want. YIANNIS.K Sea Sports Center & SAILING CRUISES, based at the Tui Sensimar Elounda Village Resort & Spa by Aquila, offers self-drive boats, speed boat tours and sailing cruises, and is open daily from 9AM to 7PM. Poseidon Cruises runs private charters, including half-day and full-day cruises around the Mirabello gulf with a stop at Spinalonga and time for swimming, plus sunset cruises and onboard parties for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays and honeymoons. Kounalis Cruises uses traditional wooden boats for trips to Spinalonga and Barbarossa Cave, departing from Elounda. For something smaller, Elounda Rofos Boat runs private and public trips around the Elounda bay area, to the sunken city, Plaka and Spinalonga Island, and also offers fishing boat rental. Boat Trip Elounda, a family company established in 2019, operates from the small port by the windmill. Details such as routes, timetables and prices are not listed here, so ask each operator directly.

Questions to ask

Do I need a licence to rent a boat?

Licence rules depend on the boat and the operator. YIANNIS.K Sea Sports Center & SAILING CRUISES lists self-drive boats, but does not state licence requirements here. Ask the business directly about the licence needed for the boat you want to hire.

Can I book a boat for a private party or special event?

Poseidon Cruises arranges onboard parties and special events such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays and honeymoons, and also tailor-made cruises. Apollon Boat Cruises states its 14-metre boat, with capacity for up to 49 passengers, is suitable for special events and has room for mingling and dancing. Confirm dates and terms with the operator.

Are there boat trips to Spinalonga from Schisma Eloundas?

Yes. Poseidon Cruises includes a stop at Spinalonga on its Mirabello gulf cruises. Kounalis Cruises runs trips to Spinalonga and Barbarossa Cave on traditional wooden boats. Elounda Rofos Boat offers private and public trips to Spinalonga Island, the sunken city and Plaka. Check routes and timings with each operator.

What should I ask before booking a boat rental?

Ask what type of boat is available, whether it is self-drive or comes with a skipper or crew, and what the price includes. Confirm the route, departure point and duration. For groups, ask about capacity and any special-event arrangements. Prices are not listed here, so request a quote directly from the operator.
