Your boat. Your route. Your day on the Ionian — no licence required.

There is something uniquely freeing about setting out on the water with nobody telling you where to go or when to turn back. This is your chance to take the helm, explore one of the most protected and beautiful stretches of coastline in Greece, and discover the highlights of the National Marine Park of Zakynthos entirely on your own terms.

No boating licence is required. Just a sense of adventure, a willingness to explore, and a group ready to make the most of the most powerful and spacious boat in our fleet.

The Pro Boat is a single-engine vessel of 30 to 60 HP, offering maximum power and confidence on the water, and perfectly suited for groups of two to nine guests. It is well-maintained, comfortable, and comes fully equipped with everything you need for a safe and enjoyable time on the water.

From your departure point in the south of the island, the National Marine Park is right on your doorstep. Head out to Marathonisi — the protected bay where loggerhead sea turtles surface quietly in the shallows — explore the dramatic sea caves at Keri, or make your way to the Mizithres Rock Formations, where great white rocks rise straight out of the sea and hidden coves wait between them. Drop anchor somewhere beautiful and swim. The water here is some of the clearest in the Mediterranean. Take your time with it.

All boats are permitted to operate within the National Marine Park of Zakynthos, provided that park regulations are strictly followed. Your briefing before departure will cover everything you need to know.

The boat is available for a minimum of 2 hours at €190, a 3 hour rental at €210, and a 4 hour rental at €260. When booking, please let us know how long you would like the boat for so we can have everything ready for your departure.


What’s on board: Life jackets · Ladder · Canopy · First-aid kit · 20 litres of fuel included


Insurance: All boats come with basic third party insurance as standard, which covers collision with another vessel, injury of a third party swimmer not belonging to your group, and sea pollution resulting from an accident. Personal injury of anyone on board and damage to the boat caused by misuse or negligent handling are not covered. In the event of damage, an independent boat registrar will assess the extent and guests will be liable for the cost of repairs. No security deposit is required. We strongly recommend that all guests take out personal travel insurance that includes water sports and boat rental cover before their trip.

No licence is required for this boat. It is easy and safe to operate and our team will walk you through everything you need to know before you set off.

How many people can the boat accommodate?

How long can I rent the boat for?

Yes — 20 litres of fuel are included in the price. This is sufficient for a comfortable exploration of the area. Should you require additional fuel, this is available at an extra cost.

What equipment is provided on board?

The boat comes fully equipped with life jackets, a ladder, a canopy, and a first-aid kit. A pre-departure safety briefing is also included.

Where does the boat depart from?

The boat departs from the south of the island. Transfers to and from the departure point are not included but can be arranged at an extra cost — please contact us for a quote.

Where can we go?

The boat is permitted to operate within the National Marine Park of Zakynthos. Popular destinations include Marathonisi, the Keri Caves, and the Mizithres Rock Formations. During your briefing we will provide you with a map and guidance on the best routes and park regulations to follow.

Will we see sea turtles?

Sea turtles are wild animals and sightings cannot be guaranteed. However the waters around Marathonisi are one of the most important loggerhead nesting sites in the Mediterranean and turtle sightings are common. Please follow park regulations and keep a respectful distance at all times.

What are the park regulations we need to follow?

The National Marine Park of Zakynthos has specific rules in place to protect the marine environment and the loggerhead sea turtle population. These include speed limits, restricted areas, and guidelines on anchoring. Everything will be covered in your pre-departure briefing.

What should we bring?

Bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat — the sun on the water is stronger than you think. A small cooler with drinks and snacks is a good idea as nothing is provided on board. Bring a towel and swimwear for the swim stops, and a waterproof bag or case to protect your phone and camera. Comfortable, non-slip footwear suitable for a boat is recommended.

Can children come on board?

Yes, children are welcome on board accompanied by an adult. Please ensure all passengers including children wear a life jacket at all times on the water.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Safety always comes first. If sea conditions are unsuitable for the rental, we will reschedule you on the next available day at no extra cost, or offer a full refund if you are unable to return before your departure from Zakynthos.

Am I insured?

All boats come with basic third party insurance. For full details of what is and is not covered, please refer to the insurance section in the description.
