Sporades · Greece — 39.17°N, 23.46°E
License-free boat rental in Skiathos
A first helm without a license in Skiathos: engine capped at 6 hp, a marked-out area, the whole family aboard.
What a 6 hp day looks like
With 6 hp you don't cross the sea: you potter around the wooded Sporades, a green Greece of sheltered water, backed by the Alonissos marine national park, picnic on board, swim at anchor. A meltemi clearly softened compared with the Cyclades — the Sporades are more forgiving — the operator adjusts the day's area accordingly.
Booking smart
License-free boats go fast: demand peaks from May to October, pine-backed beaches as the clinching argument, and the port's fleet can often be counted on one hand. The calmer morning slot is also the most pleasant.
