Boat Rentals

If you are adventurous and you love boats there is no better way to explore the island of Comino & Gozo than by a self-driven boat being driven by you!

Take the helm and explore at your own pace.

Our self-drive boats are perfect for those who want the freedom of being out on the water without a licence. No boating licence is required, but previous boating experience is essential to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.

Drivers must be 21 years or older, and all rentals are subject to weather conditions for your safety and comfort. Should you be between the ages of 18 – 21 please feel free to contact us and we will consider your booking all depending on your boating experience.
