Yacht Charter Sweden & Boat Rental

Rent a boat with or without skipper in Sweden

The best way to describe Sweden is to say that it is a wonderful country with thousands of rivers, lakes and islands. With countless stunning places to explore, Sweden offers some of the best views to appreciate while sailing across the country. Hiring a boat is definitely one of the best ways to fully enjoy an adventure of exploration in Sweden. On sunny summer days, you could go island hopping, finding hidden spots and navigate freely. If you want to, you could go for a swim, or simply relax and enjoy the wild scenery.

Best time to hire a boat in Sweden

The weather conditions will be extremely different depending on what time you visit Sweden. The country stretches vertically on the map, and reaches the Arctic circle in the very north, just like in Norway.

This means that the winters are brutal. With heavy snow and glacial temperatures, it can be quite a painful experience. This is also without even taking into account the endless nights. If you are courageous enough, maybe you’ll be lucky to see the northern lights.

Summer is a completely different story. With warm weather and endless days, the midnight sun will guide you through the night. Yes, the days never end and it makes it a perfect time to sail in Sweden.

Pricing and information for boat rental in Sweden

It can be a little bit pricey to charter a yacht in Swede,. It’s not the cheapest country. Thankfully SamBoat offers relatively cheap deals,. With good prices and availability for all kinds of vessels, you will be able to find a boat that suits your needs and budget. 

For a starting price of 85€ per day you will be able to rent a sailboat. For a motorboat you can expect the prices to be a little bit higher, starting at around 150€ per day. 

If you plan on visiting during the high season, make sure you book your adventure well in advance as the prices increase with the higher demand of the summer.

Do you need a licence to charter a yacht in Sweden?

Licence requirements really depend on the type and size of the boat you wish to operate. For sailboats you usually don’t need a licence, but if the boat has a powerful engine it could be required:

A boating certificate is mandatory if the boat is bigger than 10 metres in length and faster than 15 knots. It’s also needed if it is a motorboat with an engine capable of 30 knots or more.

What to do in Sweden

For a day trip, rent a boat in Stockholm and discover the capital with its colourful streets and its archipelago.

On the longest days of the year during summer, watch as the sun doesn’t completely disappear and swans above the horizon.
