    The best boat hire in Santorini!

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. The husband-and-wife team who run the business are genuinely lovely, friendly, and couldn’t have been more helpful. Their passion for what they do really shines through. The boats are immaculate, modern, and clearly very well looked after. Everything felt fresh, clean, and comfortable. One of our favourite little touches was the Bluetooth speaker, which made it even more enjoyable to relax on the water with our own music. If you’re looking for a friendly, professional company with beautiful, well-maintained boats and exceptional customer service, I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. We’ll definitely be back!

    Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your wonderful review! It truly means a lot to us. We're so happy you enjoyed your time on the boat and appreciated all the little details, especially the Bluetooth speaker! It was a pleasure meeting you, and we're grateful for your kind words. We can't wait to welcome you back to Santorini for another unforgettable day on the water. Safe travels and see you again soon!

    It was perfect.

    We had a great time. SantiMaris staff was helpful. When we get back to Santorini, we'll prefer them.

    Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.

    How much does Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed cost?

    +

    Prices start at $200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santorini usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santorini is not rushed.

    Is Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Santorini, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santorini can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santorini and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Santorini Boat Rental - No License Needed start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santorini within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Santorini?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Santorini experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Premium Catamaran Cruise in Santorini including Oia, Private Santorini Tailor Made - Choice of the Guest!, Private Classic Santorini Panorama: Visit Top Destinations. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Santorini?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Santorini?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
