If your dream trip to Europe includes spending plenty of time out on the water, you’re probably going to need a boat. While you could book a one-day boating excursion or a small-ship cruise, why not hire a boat and its captain to ferry you around instead? This is what Getmyboat, a.k.a. the Airbnb of boats, can do for you, allowing you to book captained yacht charters and boat rentals worldwide.
But where should you go? If you haven’t quite figured out that part of your trip yet, Getmyboat has some suggestions. The platform analyzed booking and demand data to identify the top boating cities in Europe based on factors such as number of completed rentals, local boating culture, pricing and more.
As such, Getmyboat found the leading boating destination in Europe is Istanbul, Türkiye, where you can find a plethora of yachts for rent, with trip prices starting at less than $500 and hourly rates starting at just more than $150.
Other favorites in the top 10 best boating destinations in Europe included Lake Como, Italy; Sorrento, Italy; Ibiza, Spain; Positano, Italy; Mallorca, Spain; Split, Croatia; Mykonos, Greece; Amalfi, Italy; and Lisbon, Portugal.
