Boat rentals in Skiathos

Renting a boat in Skiathos: what to ask

Boat rentals in Skiathos are run by local operators based around the island, including the town port, the Old Port, Megali Ammos, Vromolimnos and Kolios. Some rent boats, others offer trips only with a skipper or crew, so the first question is how you want to spend the day on the water.

Evdora Catamaran Sailing runs day sailing trips on a catamaran around the North Sporades and lists fishing trips and wedding trips among its offerings, with prices on request. Megali Ammos Watersports rents boats alongside waterskiing and paddleboarding, and its team briefs customers on safety and places to visit before they set out.
