Question 1

Do I need a boating licence to rent a dinghy in Palau?

Accepted Answer

No. Our self-drive dinghies start at 5.70m with a 40hp engine, which stays within the limits that don't require a licence in Italy. We give you a full briefing before you leave, so even first-timers can drive with confidence.

Question 2

Where can I go with the boat from Palau?

Accepted Answer

Most guests spend the day in the La Maddalena archipelago — La Maddalena, Caprera, Santo Stefano, Spargi, Budelli, Santa Maria and Razzoli — all within easy reach of Palau. Longer excursions cross toward the Lavezzi islands and southern Corsica.

Question 3

What's the difference between renting with and without a skipper?

Accepted Answer

Without a skipper you drive the boat yourself and plan your own day. With a skipper, a local captain takes the helm, chooses the best route for the conditions, and finds the quietest coves — ideal if you'd rather just relax and swim.

Question 4

How do I book a boat or excursion?

Accepted Answer

The fastest way is WhatsApp or a call. Send us your dates, group size and whether you'd like a self-drive dinghy, a boat with a skipper, or a daily excursion, and we'll confirm availability and the best option for you.

Question 5

What is included when I rent a boat?

Accepted Answer

Rentals include the safety equipment required on board, a pre-departure briefing on the boat and the area, and guidance on fuel and the best anchorages. Fuel is charged on use. Excursions include the skipper and swim stops.

Question 6

Is there parking and where do I meet you in Palau?

Accepted Answer

We're based at Via Fonte Vecchia, 14, 07020 Palau SS, a short walk from the waterfront. Send us a WhatsApp or give us a call when you book and we'll share the exact meeting point and parking information for the day of your rental or excursion.
