Rental Period Guidelines:
- For most boat and speedboat rentals, the designated rental period spans from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm (18:30h). However, exceptions to these hours may be accommodated upon request, subject to availability, and may incur an additional surcharge.
- For car and scooter rentals, the rental period extends until midnight (12:00 am) on the same day or for a full 24-hour duration.
- Please note that any exceptions to the standard rental periods should be arranged in advance and may be subject to additional fees. Our team will be happy to assist you with any special requests you may have.
Hourly Rental Rate?
Hourly rentals are not typically available due to the high maintenance costs involved. As a result, the hourly rental rate is equivalent to one-third of the standard daily price. If you are interested in an hourly rental, please contact us directly to discuss the availability and pricing options.
What Affects the Rental Price?
The rental price depends on the season, current demand, availability, and the duration of the rental. Prices are usually lowest at the end of September, in October, and at the beginning of May. During the high season of July and August, prices tend to be higher due to increased demand.
