Frequently asked questions
How much does license-free boat rental cost in Ischia?
Expect €100–250 per day — where you land depends on size, the boat's year and the platform. Prices shown here are those actually published at the time of your search. Demand peaks from May to September, spas and anchorages sharing the clientele.
Do I need a license?
Italy is the most permissive country: no license up to 40 hp (30 kW), within 6 nautical miles of the coast. That is why the "senza patente" fleets of Sardinia, Sicily and the Amalfi coast are so large. Still mandatory: safety equipment on board and respect for swimming zones.
Is a license-free boat enough for a family in Ischia?
Yes for most listings: open hulls of 5-6 metres for 4-6 people, on the largest island in the Gulf of Naples, volcanic and thermal, ringed by contrasting bays — daytime cruising at gentle speed.
