Do I need a boat licence to rent an inflatable boat?

No. Our boats up to 40 HP can be driven without a licence. Before departure we walk you through everything: controls, safety and the best routes along the Capoliveri coast.

Where exactly are you located?

We are right on Margidore Beach, in Lacona (municipality of Capoliveri), on the Stella Gulf. Just 5 km from Portoferraio, inside the Tuscan Archipelago National Park. Convenient parking just steps from the beach.

You can book via WhatsApp, by phone or with the contact form. In high season (July and August) we recommend booking a few days in advance.

What is included in the rental?

Full safety equipment, life jackets, an initial briefing and assistance for the whole rental. Inflatable boats also include a sun awning and swim ladder.

Is it suitable for children?

Absolutely! Pedal boats, canoes and SUPs are perfect for families, and we have life jackets in every size, including for the little ones.

What happens in case of bad weather?

Safety comes first: if sea conditions don't allow it, we move your booking to another day or refund it in full.
