Description

If you like to be independent, you can hire your own boat in Lanzarote and go sailing without a licence. In Playa Blanca, you can hire 15hp motorboats to get you around the island's coastal waters. You can sail along the south coast of Lanzarote on set routes, for example to the beautiful Playa Papagayo, where you can anchor, swim and snorkel. The boat hire in Playa Blanca is also a good place for beginners, with thorough instruction. The Remus boats for hire here are easy to handle and manoeuvre. In Playa Blanca you can hire a boat for 4 hours and let the crew suggest some routes that can be covered in that time with a 15hp engine. Wherever you want to go, hiring a boat in Lanzarote and manoeuvring it around the coast with up to 5 passengers is a great adventure. Fuel is included in the price for your trip in the south. The boat is also insured and equipped with all safety features. There is also a sun awning on board. If you would like to enjoy a picnic on the water.

Superb afternoon at sea with the family

Superb experience, the family loved it. We took some food and drinks on board and spent 4 hours at sea.

Better than impossible 100% recommended

10/10 experience, service couldn't be better. First of all, they warned us that on the day we had the reservation there were rough seas and they offered to modify the reservation, which was already a very positive first impression, and then, on the day of the activity, it couldn't have been better. Everything very well explained, very good boat and very good service. If you are in Lanzarote, I recommend it 100% as an experience and without a doubt I would choose this company, very professional and friendly service.

A nice family outing

Information and communication with the rental company were very clear. Clean boat, good explanations during the handover, masks and cooler provided, easy to drive, pretty beaches to see, and nice snorkeling. We had a great time as a family.

Worst experience ever

Would not recommend. We hired a boat 2 1/2 hours in to a 4hour charter the sea became choppy and the boat capsized. They demanded 5000 euros off us and threatened us with the police. Do not use

Relaxing few hours.

Good directions given for meeting point. Safety brief covered everything. Good quality, clean boat. Plenty of time to drop anchor and swim. Would highly recommend Smileboat.

Excellent afternoon on the water.

Booked at the last minute and within seconds we had received a welcome WhatsApp with details. Arrived at the Marina and the assistant was extremely helpful in breaking down all the information and tips. Spent 2 hrs on the water driving the boat (never done before) and was very straight forward. Navigated our way to Papagayo beaches and spent time swimming and feeding the clown fish!!! Bring some bread! Excellent, good value and would definitely recommend. Bravo guys!!!

Great fun!

It was a great trip, easy to book, easy to drive and was a great experience. It was well organised and we were fully briefed before we headed out. Great views from the boat, be prepared to get wet if the sea is a little choppy.

Two-hour excursion on a boat without a captain

A wonderful, different, and fun experience. Hanzaadan was waiting for us on the boat, explained everything very well, prepared the cooler, and explained where we could navigate and the safety measures, including GPS. If there was any problem, he would arrive quickly; there were life jackets and snorkel goggles. He was very kind, and the quality-price ratio was excellent; I would definitely do it again.

Excellent experience

A lovely way to spend a couple of hours on the sea. Well organised and we had excellent communication with the operator. They had GPS on the boat so it was reassuring to know that we could get hold of them immediately if required
