Catamaran rental in Athens with Click&Boat
The Greek capital is a boater's paradise due to its proximity to the hundreds of islands of the Aegean Sea and the modern marinas around the city. With a catamaran charter in Athens you can visit the islands of Poros, Hydra or Spetses nearby, or sail to famous yachting destinations such as Mykonos, Santorini and Paros. An island hopping trip is the best way you can benefit from a catamaran charter in Athens.
So why choose a catamaran? Because of a catamaran's dual-hulled design they are much more stable and steady than a motorboat or a sailboat. They are the perfect way to relax and enjoy the view. Especially when you charter a catamaran with a captain, you don't have to worry about the boat and can fully enjoy the experience that surrounds you.
Because of their design they also tend to have more space than a motorboat or sailboat and usually sleep around 12 people. This makes Catamarans perfect for families, groups of friends or couples looking for an extra-romantic getaway with lots of space and privacy.
How does it cost to rent a catamaran in Athens?
The price of your catamaran rental will vary depending on a few factors including the size of the catamaran, the time of year and length of your rental as well as the year the catamaran was constructed.
If you are renting a catamaran during the high season, expect to pay more but benefit from the best weather of the year. On the contrary, chartering a catamaran during the mid or low season- you will experience cooler weather but benefit from lower prices, quieter streets and less tourists.
- The starting price for a catamaran rental is $300/day , however they may cost up to $3,000/day, depending on the factors mentioned above.
