How much does a catamaran charter in Sicily cost?

The price of a catamaran rental in Sicily depends on multiple factors. Things like the time of year, how many people are on board and the size and type of catamaran that you choose will all have an effect on the final cost. On average, the cost of a Sicily catamaran charter is about €12,500/week in the high season and €4,490/week in the low season for 10 people.

What is the best time of year for a catamaran charter in Sicily?

The best time to embark on a catamaran charter in Sicily would be between May and October. You’ll have scorching hot temperatures in the summer months, as well as dense crowds of tourists. In order to avoid this, we recommend visiting at the tail ends of the high season in either May, June or October. The weather will still be warm and pleasant but there will be fewer tourists and you’re likely to get better deals on Sicily catamaran rentals!

Should I rent a catamaran in Sicily with or without a skipper?

You might be wondering whether it’s worth it to have a skipper on board if you already have a sailing licence, and the answer is yes!

What are some things to consider before getting a catamaran rental in Sicily?

There are many different types of boats that you can rent in Sicily including RIBs, motorboats and sailboats. Catamarans are vessels that are usually rented per week since they typically include amenities on board such as cabins, a kitchen and a bathroom. They are great vessels for a longer charter and because of their unique, double-hulled structure, they are suited for people who are prone to seasickness.
