How much does it cost to hire a boat or yacht in Alicante?

Hiring a boat in Alicante can cost from around €190 for a half-day on a small boat to more than €2,000 per day for certain yachts.

The price depends on the type of boat, the duration, the season and whether you need a skipper.

To help you compare your options, this article gives you an overview of advertised market prices alongside the prices of our private boat experiences at Aguayate.

Boat hire prices in Alicante

Here are some starting prices advertised for different types of boat. These are examples of available offers, not guaranteed average prices. They can vary depending on the season, availability and the conditions of each hire.

Prices are indicative and based on advertised offers. Not all boats include the same services or operate under the same conditions.

Always check whether fuel, the skipper, final cleaning and the security deposit are included before booking.

How much does it cost to hire a yacht in Alicante?

Hiring a yacht generally costs more than hiring a small motorboat, although prices vary considerably depending on the yacht’s size, equipment, capacity and included services.

Boat hire platforms list a wide range of prices, from relatively affordable options to yachts costing several thousand euros per day.

It is therefore worth comparing similar boats and checking exactly what each price includes before making a decision.

With a skippered yacht, the price may include the crew and certain services, while fuel, marina fees, food and drinks may be charged separately.

Two listings with similar prices do not necessarily offer the same experience.

Can you hire a boat by the hour?

Yes, although many boat hire companies offer fixed time slots rather than individual hours. Common options include:

• Half day: approximately 4 hours.
• Full day: approximately 8 hours.
• Sunset trip: a shorter outing, depending on the experience and season.

If you simply want to swim, cruise along the coast or watch the sunset, a shorter trip may be enough.

If you want to cover more distance or visit Tabarca Island, it is worth allowing more time and confirming the route with the provider.

What is included in the boat hire price?

The advertised price does not always include every cost. Before booking, check the following:

At Aguayate, we offer private boat experiences with a skipper and services included according to the trip you choose.

You can check the details on our boat hire in Alicante page.

How much do Aguayate’s private boat experiences cost?

If you would rather book a private experience than compare individual boat listings, here are our set-price packages:

The quoted price has no hidden extra charges. Check the relevant experience page for details of what is included and to confirm availability.

For a group of eight, it can also be useful to work out the cost per person:

The per-person figures are approximate calculations based on eight people sharing the total price. They are not individual booking prices.

Which option is right for you?

The best option depends on what you want to do:

• If you want to spend less: compare smaller boats and check whether you need a boating licence.
• If you don't want to worry about navigation: look for a boat with a skipper included.
• If you want to spend the whole day at sea: compare full-day trips and check for additional charges.
• If you're planning a special occasion: a private experience can make organising your trip easier by bringing the boat, skipper and services together in one booking.
