Renting a boat with a skipper

With Océans Evasion, you can easily rent boats with or without a skipper depending on your sailing qualifications and desired vacation style. Having a captain on board is a great way to ensure a relaxing vacation and a hands-off experience. With a local licensed captain, you’ll be able to discover and visit the island like a local.

For some rentals, a captain and crew may come at an additional cost depending on the size of the boat and the number of crew needed. Please contact the boat owner if you have any questions regarding the hiring of a captain.

What boat should I rent?

If you’re wondering what type of boat you should rent and are unsure where to start, you can ask yourself the following questions: how many people with be on the charter? What activities will I want to do? How long is my charter? Do I want a captain and/or crew on board?

Some boats are more optimal for certain activities than others. If you have sailing experience and like the challenge of navigating the water, a sailboat is a great way to get an authentic sailing experience. On the other hand, if you’re interested in a day rental to do water activities, you should rent a motorboat. They are a good choice for people who are short on time because they go fast and are typically hired by the day. Happy sailing!

When is the best time to go?

Cancun has great temperatures all year round! That being said, it does have a monsoon climate, meaning that certain months of the year can be full of rain. The best months to charter a boat in Cancun are from January to September. During this time, you’ll experience warm weather and minimal rain.
