Epic. It’s the Greek Islands. It’s beautiful, but do your research as it can get gusty that could delay a departure. Note that south of Naxos, the wind did drop to allow for smooth sailing.

Often there is no water or electricity or neither at the pier. Although the area is considered family-friendly, we have had strong winds (7 Bft) from the front for the last three days.
Oft gibt es kein Wasser oder keinen Strom oder keins von beiden an der Pier. Obwohl das Revier als famiilenfreundlich git, hatten wir an den letzten drei Tagen heftigen Wind (7Bft) von vorn.

The navigation area, for us: Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos, then up the east coast of Pelion. We sailed very coolly in 15 days. Clear preference for Skopelos. Very nice village of Skiathos but the island is too touristy.
La zone de navigation , pour nous : Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos, puis remonté la côte est du Pelion . Nous avons en 15 jours navigué très cool . Nette préférence pour Skopelos . Bourgade de Skiathos très sympa mais l’île est trop touristique .

Catamaran charter Greece with or without skipper

Charter a catamaran in Greece with or without skipper

Greece is the perfect destination to go island hopping with a catamaran. With several departure points, you'll have access to a wide inventory to hire a catamaran. Hire a catamaran for a day or a week in comfort with flexible cancellation.

Catamaran Hire in Greece

The Greek islands have always been a popular destination for both sailors and tourists alike. With tons of islands, amazing coastal towns and perfect beaches, it is easy to see why. Add in the historic archaeological sites and it becomes a dream destination for a catamaran charter. 

Even though Greece has always been known for the amount of tourists, having a catamaran will allow you to see hidden spots and secluded beaches. With a shallow draft, you’ll be able to get as close as possible to uncrowded coves and beaches to find a sandy spot away from the crowds. Enjoy the comfort and stability of a catamaran as you island hop in Greece. You can also charter a sailboat in Greece.


 

How much does it cost to hire a catamaran in Greece?


 

On average, the standard price of catamarans in Greece is €487 per day with the average size being 12m long. If you are travelling with friends or family, catamarans are the ideal boat as they will offer enough space and comfort that you will need. Depending on where you hire the catamaran, the price will range from €200 to several thousand euros per day. Keep in mind that if you have no experience or qualifications, you will have to add on the cost of a skipper. 


 

Do you need a license to hire a catamaran in Greece?


 

When renting a bareboat catamaran in Greece, you will need to hold a valid license as well as a detailed nautical CV. The nautical CV will detail your previous experience on a catamaran and the waters you have sailed. If you are new to sailing or do not hold a license, you can always hire a skippered catamaran in Greece. Most of the weekly charters have an option to hire with skipper so you can have a stress free vacation. 


 

Areas to Sail in Greece with your catamaran hire 

With the many islands, there are many avenues where you can possibly sail. The first thing to note is that the sailing season is pretty typical running from May to the end of September, sometimes into October if the weather allows it. With that said, this will be the pricier period to hire a boat in Greece with the peak season running from July to August. 

One of the most popular departure points is from the port of Athens. From here, you can cruise your catamaran to the Saronic Gulf and island hop from there. Another beautiful port to start your charter is from Corfu which will allow you to sail in the middle of the Ionian Islands. A catamaran charter in Greece will surely top the holiday list.
