RIB rental

What can I do onboard a RIB charter?

Because RIBs are so versatile, there are a number of different activities that you can do onboard when renting a RIB. The size and agility have also made rib boats especially popular when it comes to various water sports such as fishing and diving. When it comes to fishing, you can quickly get out to deeper waters, and new places to fish, as well as go into shallower waters due to its flat bottom. Even when diving, your rented rib boat can quickly get you where you want, and you can often dive directly from the rib boat.

More than anything else, the rib boats are known for being able to reach breathtaking speeds, such as 30 knots and all the way up to 70 knots. This makes them well suited for those who are looking for fast-paced rides among the waves. You can also rent larger rib boats with skippers who take you on fast-paced guided tours with astonishing speed. Something you can rent with friends and family to have a different experience.

A RIB is also a good alternative on the trip or family holiday for those who want to be able to get out during the day and discover more than the beach you are on. Many of the popular destinations also have more hidden beaches where you can go out during the day to discover the more hidden coves and hidden gems.

Day trips onboard a RIB charter

RIBs are best suited for day trips as they are not suitable for sleeping in and don't have the same amenities as other larger boats like motorboats, sailboats, or yachts. Renting a RIB during the day works well for those who want to discover new places quickly like hopping from beach to beach or from marina to marina. Or just as a way to get away from the large crowds on the beaches and enjoy being in the sun and swimming in the sea for a day. RIBs are also popular during specific activities, such as putting an extra special touch on events such as bridal showers and bachelorette parties.

Because we have RIBs available over large parts of the world we have varying prices depending on where in the world you are interested in renting a RIB.

Is a license required?

Whether a driver's license or boat license is required to steer depends on the size of the boat and in which country you are in. In some countries, it is not possible to rent boats without having some kind of driver's license. But through our platform, you can often rent with a skipper, which is a popular choice. By renting a boat with a skipper, you can take advantage of their local expertise to find the best spots you might not otherwise have found.

Some countries do have rules about the power of the engine and so, to be on the safe side, we always recommend that you contact the boat owners directly via our internal messaging system to discuss details and know exactly what it is that applies.
