Skiathos Rent Boat - Skiathos Boat Trips, based in Skiathos town, offers boats with or without a licence and private outings with a professional crew and experienced skippers; the operator names Lalaria, Tsougria and quieter beaches as places to visit.

Questions to ask

Do I need a licence to rent a boat in Skiathos?

Some boats are offered without a licence, as stated by Skiathos Rent Boat - Skiathos Boat Trips. For other operators, ask directly whether a licence is required for the boat you want and what documents you need to bring.

What is included in a boat tour?

Inclusions vary. Captain Cook & the Traditional Yacht prepares a freshly cooked Greek meal with chilled drinks, and Nireas Sailing includes Greek food and drinks. For other trips, ask the operator what food, drinks and equipment are provided.

Can I book a private trip rather than a shared one?

Several operators offer private trips, including Skiathos Rent Boat - Skiathos Boat Trips, Captain Cook & the Traditional Yacht, Evdora Catamaran Sailing and Xperiensea Cruises. Ask each business whether a trip can be taken privately and how that affects the plan.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Routes can change with the weather, and the captain chooses the day's itinerary, as stated by Captain Cook & the Traditional Yacht. Ask your operator about their policy for bad weather and any alternative arrangements.
