    SAM was the most amazing charter from start to finish. He was a pure gentleman helping us on the boat, he was chilled and relaxed even though we were slightly behind schedule leaving the port. Himself and his sister in law were absolutely amazing on board. They served all our drinks, helped with keeping the amenities clean and tidy. They went above and beyond to make sure our experience was as good as we hoped for. The boat was so clean and tidy. There was lots of room to walk about and a nice kitchen area. As a group, we had the most amazing day, anchoring in 2 different locations where we got out to swim and enjoy the beautiful views. It truly was the best day of the bachelorette weekend and we are so grateful that we picked SAM!! If I am lucky enough to get back to Cannes, I will definitely be going on a boat trip with Sam again. I cannot recommend sam , his team and the beautiful boat any more. 10/10

Yacht Charter without license France


If you don't have a boat license, renting a boat on the Click&Boat platform is no problem. With so many yacht charters to choose from in France, it is no surprise that it is possible to rent a boat without a license here. You are sure to find an option suitable for you even without a boat license. Depending on the size and type of the boat, you may not require a license to drive it - you should always check this with the boat owner via the Click&Boat platform's messaging system. In most cases, it is a popular choice to charter a yacht with a skipper or captain. Not only is your captain able to drive the boat for you and keep you safe but they also come in handy as a local expert. Your skipper will know all of the best spots. If you want to go snorkeling, your skipper will know the place to go. They will also be able to recommend you the best local restaurants, the most beautiful secluded beaches and be able to answer any other questions you may have about the boat, sailing, or the local area of France.
