Should you sail with a skipper in Malta?
Many of our boat rentals in Malta come with the option of renting a skipper, which can truly enrich your trip. There are many advantages of renting a boat with a skipper, for example, you will not need to have a boating licence in order to set sail. Your skipper will also be a local, and therefore will be able to navigate your vessel through the Maltese archipelago with ease, whilst showing you hidden spots that normally go unnoticed by tourists.
With a skipper on board, you will be able to sit back, relax, and revel in Malta’s natural beauty.
