On an island, there are many activities related to the sea that you can enjoy, and several of them can be done with different types of boats.
Are you trying to decide whether to rent a boat in Ibiza with a skipper? Today we give you 6 reasons to do so.
The 6 benefits we propose
If you would like to enjoy the sea in a different way, but you are not sure whether to hire a skipper to guide you, we give you 6 benefits that will make you decide.
1. Vessel qualifications
Each of the boat qualifications allows you to drive boats of a maximum length.
What happens if you don't have any of them? There are boats that can be driven without a licence, but they are quite small and can be moved in a limited way.
One of the main benefits of renting a boat with a skipper is precisely that you don't have to worry about that: you decide which boat and for how many people.
And all you have to do is enjoy yourself.
2. Safety and liability on board
An experienced skipper knows all the necessary safety measures while sailing, and he will guide you and tell you what to do during the crossing and especially in case of need.
If you contact a charter company in Ibiza, they will make sure that all the boats are kept in good condition and that all the documentation is in order.
A safe trip will always be a happy trip.
3. Free yourself from your worries
The two previous benefits of renting a boat with skipper mean that all you have to do is show up at the agreed time, get on the boat and enjoy the experience.
No qualifications, no documentation, no safe routes for you and the rest of the crew... Just have fun.
4. The magical corners of Ibiza
The most experienced skippers know the most spectacular locations along the coast of Ibiza.
If you have any doubts about where to go, explain to the skipper what you would like to see, and he or she will be able to make your wishes come true.
Whether it's sunbathing, a refreshing swim, a lunch break or some dreamy photos, we're sure they can show you the best spots.
5. Learning about the sea
If you enjoy the sea, but have never taken the step to learn how to sail, doing so with an experienced skipper can be a great first step.
Ask anything you want to know about the operation of the vessel, sea and weather changes, tips or tricks that only come from long periods of sailing...
The sea dogs will be happy to answer all your questions, and will certainly appreciate your interest in their profession.
And for you, it's a good opportunity to learn!
6. Care of the sea during navigation
Do you know about econavigation? These are a series of recommendations for sailing as cleanly as possible.
It is also important to know where to anchor in Ibiza and where to avoid anchoring, as well as waste management on board and correct refuelling.
The skipper of the boat will know all these terms and techniques to ensure a clean and efficient voyage with a low impact on the environment.
