Important Rental Rules & Navigation Policies

• Route Restrictions: Without a professional captain on board, your route is strictly dedicated to visiting the Shipwreck Cove (Navagio) and the surrounding caves. For safety reasons, it is not allowed to go further than the shipwreck or navigate all the way around the island.
• Fuel Policy: The fixed price includes fuel specifically for the standard trip to the wreck and back (a distance of around 30 miles). If you exceed this standard distance, an extra charge of 2.10 Euros per liter/mile will apply.
• Driver Requirements: The renter/driver must be over 18 years old and present a valid passport or ID card.
• Safety Check: Every driver must complete a 30-minute safety and handling lesson before departure. If our company considers that you do not have the confidence to safely steer the vessel, we reserve the right to deny the rental for your safety, or alternatively offer you a professional skipper for an extra charge.
• Schedule: Standard trips start between 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM and return between 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM. If you wish to return earlier, you can easily do so by giving us advance notice.
• Booking & Payments: Reservations are secured with a deposit. The remaining balance is paid directly at the port in cash before departure.
• Cancellation & Weather Policy: Your safety is our top priority. In case of bad weather conditions, we offer a 100% full refund or rescheduling to another day. Please note that due to weather conditions, trip times or days may change for safety reasons; we will provide this information to you as soon as possible.
