Can you rent a boat in Venice with or without a skipper?
Yes, you can find both bareboat and skippered charters. However, if you want to hire without, you will need to ensure you are in possession of the appropriate licence.
Hiring a boat with a skipper is perfect for those without much sailing experience. However, if you have experience and the correct boating licence, a Venice boat rental without a skipper can be a great opportunity for adventure and exploration, as you will be able to plan your own itinerary.
What weather and sailing conditions are typical during a boat rental in Venice?
The weather you can expect when you sail around Venice is subject to great seasonal variation. However, usually, the hottest months are July and August, when the temperature averages at around 75°F (around 24°C) and the coldest month is January, when the temperature averages at about 38°C (approximately 3.5°C).
Venice’s wettest month is October, which receives around 2.9 inches (7.4 cm) of rain and the driest month is January, which receives just 1.5 inches (3.8 cm). It should be noted that aside from the rainfall, Venice usually experiences severe floods between the months of October and January. Although this wouldn’t necessarily be a problem during a Venetian boating holiday, you may not be able to visit all of the things you want to while there.
When is the best time for a Venice boat rental?
Although you can go boating in Venice throughout the year, we would generally recommend going during April, May or September. During August, the weather will probably be too hot for most tourists and it’s not permitted to swim in most areas so it won’t be that easy to cool down. Even most of the locals leave in August for this reason. In winter, you will avoid the crowds and have more favourable temperatures, but the risk of flooding also increases.
If you want your visit to coincide with Carnival, you should plan your Venice boat rental for the end of February until the beginning of April so that you can really join in with the parties and witness the spectacle from your boat.
What to do during your nautical adventure in Venice?
There are many things that you should make sure you see and do when you rent a boat in Venice, but let’s start with the obvious. St Mark’s Basilica, located inside St Mark’s Square is always a treat to see. You should also take full advantage of a boat hire in Venice by exploring the canals. Depending on the size of your boat, you may be able to sail underneath the Rialto Bridge, but even if this is not possible you will love sailing down the Canale Grande, which passes from one side of Venice to the other. The banks of this iconic canal are lined with spectacular buildings dating back as far as the 13th century.
Venice also has many islands just offshore, which are perfect to visit as a brief escape from the hustle and bustle of the mainland. Venice Lido is especially great for this purpose, with a much calmer, more laid-back atmosphere than central Venice, while still having a full range of services, such as shops and restaurants. Other, quieter islands to visit during your boat hire in Venice include Torcello Island and San Giorgio Maggiore.
Of course, another reason why people go to Venice is to ride through the canals on a gondola. One of the more romantic options for your trip, this is something we would recommend, as it is a truly authentic experience that wouldn’t be the same anywhere else.
