Boat hire in Egypt with Click&Boat
The land of pyramids, pharaohs and great cruises; Egypt is a popular holiday destination. It is valued by those seeking relaxation in the sun, those who appreciate history tours and diving enthusiasts alike. Egypt boasts some of the best dive sites. During a holiday aboard a sailboat, a motorboat or even a RIB, you can jump into the water with a snorkel and marvel at this amazing underwater world. Egypt's big advantage is its location, on the territory of North Africa and the Sinai Peninsula in Asia, in a tropical climate. Temperatures all year round encourage holidaying here. Summers are particularly hot and temperatures often exceed 50 degrees. A trip to Egypt in the winter months, on the other hand, is a chance to bask in the sun and escape the winter at home.

When is the best time for a boat hire in Egypt?
The best time for a boat trip to Egypt is between October/November and April. During this period the weather is warm (but not scorching hot like in the summer months) and the water is excellent for sailing. This period is perfect for making the most of your yacht charter in Egypt and visiting the different sights and monuments.
Can I hire a boat with or without a skipper in Egypt?
You have the option to book a bareboat rental in Egypt or a skippered yacht. For your sailing trip, we highly recommend hiring a skipper onboard. Although this may involve an additional cost, there is no doubt that it will make your experience even more enjoyable.
If you charter with a skipper, they will certainly know the area very well and will give you the opportunity to discover secret beaches or lesser-known attractions. Whether you book a Red Sea yacht charter in Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada or visit the monumental shores of the Nile, your trip will be one to remember! A skipper can also adapt the sailing itinerary to best suit your wishes and those of your family and friends.
If you decide to have a skipper on your boat in Egypt, your experience will certainly be more relaxed. The skipper will take care of the navigation, as well as the docking and mooring, which means you can enjoy the beauty of the surroundings while cruising on your yacht charter in Egypt without any worries.
