Lake Como, situated in Northern Italy, is notorious for its breath-taking scenery set against the foothills of the Alps. Lake Como boat rental is a perfect idea for small or large groups of people. This is because there is lots to explore, and you definitely don’t want to miss out on those idyllic shorelines. The shape of the lake resembles an upside-down Y, with three branches that meet together at the resort town of Bellagio. At the bottom of the southwest branch, you will find the city of Como, which is very well known for its architecture and access to the mountain town of Brunate.

The enchanting Lake Como is a boaters’ paradise. If you are wondering how to rent a boat for a week, with or without skipper, and the relative prices, then you are spoilt for choice. Motorboats are popular, favoured by the typical Como jet-set clientele. If you want to be part of the international glamour scene and experience the thrill of jetting around these exclusive and beguiling waters in a snazzy speedboat, then take advantage of Lake Como’s fuss-free rental facilities and book your boat for as long as you like. Most book for a week, and prices vary according to type and size of boat. Flexible date change or cancellation is available up to 15 days before check-in on selected vessels, so be sure to check with the individual boat owners what the conditions are for your chosen boat.

Why should you consider a boat charter in Lake Como?

In order to experience the freedom of the water, a boat charter in Lake Como is imperative. Without a boat, it would be impossible to discover all the magical places around the lake. Sit back, relax and enjoy the views while a skipper guides you to all the best places! Or perhaps you would prefer to captain your own vessel? The choice is absolutely yours, either way, it’s certainly the experience of a lifetime. Who knows, you might even spot George Clooney!

How much does Lake Como boat rental cost?

There are many different factors that can affect the price of Lake Como boat rental. A few of these factors include the size and model of the boat, the season, the duration of your trip and the type of boat. If you want to rent a skippered Lake Como charter, this will also usually cost more as well. Below is a list of prices according to boat type:

What’s included in the cost?

The cost of your boat hire in the Lake Como will be included as a fixed price on our website. Hiring a skipper crew or equipment can sometimes be included in the overall price or added as an extra cost, so it is important to check this with the boat owner prior to your trip.

Fuel is not included and will be calculated at the end of your trip based on the type of boat you have rented and the distance you have travelled.

The average price of a boat rental per day in Lake Como:

Motorboat: From €150 per day

RIB: From €240 per day

Jetski: From €800 per day

Yacht: From €1,899 per day

Sailboat: From €143 per day

The average price of a boat rental in Lake Como for a weekend:

Motorboat: From €865 for a weekend

RIB: From €742 for a weekend

Jetski: From €2,433 for a weekend

Yacht: From €7,464 for a weekend

Sailboat: From €721 for a weekend

The average price of a boat rental in the Lake Como for a week:

Motorboat: From €1,991 for a week

RIB: From €1,709 for a week

Jetski: From €5,639 for a week

Yacht: From €17,364 for a week

What is the weather like in Lake Como?

The weather on Lake Como is subject to great seasonal variation. You will typically see the hottest temperatures for your Lake Como boat rental in July, when the temperature can get as high as 80°F (26.5°C). In contrast, January is the coldest month, with temperatures dipping as low as 29°F (-1.5°C).

May is the wettest month in Lake Como, which usually sees around 4.1 inches (10.4cm) of rain. On the other hand, if you go in January, which usually sees just 1.6 inches (4.1cm), you are guaranteed plenty of sun. April is the windiest month, with wind speeds getting as high as 4.5 mph (7.2 kph). August is usually the calmest month, with wind speeds reaching just 3.6 mph (5.8 kph).

When is the best time for a Lake Como boat charter?

The best time to go boating on Lake Como depends on what sort of holiday you’re looking for. If you want the best temperatures, you should go during the summer months. However, during this time, there will likely be a lot of tourists, and for people who aren’t used to the sticky summer heat in Italy, the temperatures may be a little overwhelming. May is the month when you will probably get the best mixture of slightly fewer tourists and more manageable temperatures, but you should be prepared for a little more rain this month (although this could help to cool you down a little). Generally speaking, we would recommend a Lake Como boat rental in either April or May, to avoid the crowds of tourists and take advantage of temperatures that are warm, but not too much so.

What to do with your Lake Como boat rental?

Exploration

Majestic Alps, lush green vegetation and colourful villages, glorious historic villas like Villa d’Este, castles like Castello di Vezio, and the blue lake dotted with motorboats: this is your daily panorama. There are a wide variety of towns and villages on the shores of the lake, so a Lake Como charter truly is the best way to explore. Renting a boat gives you freedom of movement over the whole lake, and renting for a week will often get you price discounts. The larger towns, such as Lecco, Varenna, Bellagio and Como itself are magnificent lakeside towns, with ports or marinas that are well-equipped for the bustling lake traffic. You can pick up your Lake Como boat hire (with skipper or without) in Lecco or in Porto di Laglio, just north of Como.

Some say that Lake Como is a ‘shopper’s paradise’. It has a full range of services which you would expect to find in a large city centre. If you don’t feel like getting your ‘shop’ on, why not head to the historic centre and have a wander around the cathedral. The pedestrianized piazza has many cafes and restaurants for you to indulge. There are nice views, a faded pink church to visit and lots of walking trails for the more energetic.

Visit Isola Comacina

You will need to book a Lake Como boat rental to visit the lake’s only island. Renting for a week (with or without skipper) gives you plenty of time to visit this small island of ancient woods and gardens. Although practically uninhabited now (there are some tourist facilities including restaurants), it is truly fascinating and well worth a visit. You feel the touch of the island’s rich history here: Comacina has seen Roman legions and the armies of Frederico Barbarossa. It was a strategic centre until the middle-ages when it supported the wrong side in wars between Como and Milan. The people fled and since then it has been this half-wild, yet beautiful green dot in the centre of the lake.

How to get to your Lake Como boat rental?

There are 3 airports in Milan. Malpensa (40 mins), Linate (40 Mins) and Milan Bergamo (60-70 mins). They are all accessible by bus from the airport itself to Milano Centrale station and then by train direct to Como San Giovanni station, where you can pick up a bus to anywhere else on the Lake.

Can you find a Lake Como boat rental with or without a skipper?

Yes, it is possible to go boating on Lake Como either with or without a skipper. However, to book a bareboat charter, you must make sure that you have the appropriate boating licence. If in doubt, check with the boat owner before booking the boat to ensure no nasty surprises when you get there.

A skippered charter on Lake Como is perfect for people who want to relax during their nautical adventure, without having to worry about the technicalities of sailing the boat. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a trip that’s full of adventure and spontaneity, you should book up a bareboat charter and take your Lake Como boat hire wherever you please, stopping off whenever you want.

Lake Como is one of the most impressive and most famous lakes in the world: a jewel of northern Italy, where lavish villas overlook the unique crystal waters.

With a boat rental through this region, you will soon see that its shores have more to offer than purely natural beauty – it possesses a wealth of history and culture dating back to Roman times and is set against some of the most desirable real estate in Northern Italy.

Lake Como offers something for everyone with its water-rich setting: stunning villas, amazing landscape, and a variety of water sports to do. If you are looking to sunbathe during your boat trip, you may choose from a plethora of incredible town beaches with varying amenities such as restaurants and bars.

Aside from its gorgeous lake beaches, you can admire the vibrant, colorful villages of the lake’s coast that you can explore.

Boat rental in Lake Como will prove to be an unforgettable experience; take a short cruise to Bellagio or Menaggio where you can enjoy an onshore lunch at one of the lake view restaurants. It’s definitely one of the best things to do in the region.

After a relaxing post-lunch swim or wake board ride, take a sunset cruise back north, where you can dine aboard your boat or head into one of the small towns and have a typical Italian aperitivo.

As you cruise through Lake Como, head to Lenno. Cruise to the famous Villa Carlotta , Villa del Balbianello , and Villa La Cassinella where you can take in a swim and enjoy the breathtaking sunset before heading back to Menaggio for dinner at Il Ristorante di Paolo where you’ll have some of the freshest local food with a lakefront view.

How to enjoy Lake Como

Explore Lake Como in the most Dolce Vita way . Did you know that Lake Como has been a popular retreat for aristocrats and the wealthy since Roman times? No wonder as it is considered to be one of the most beautiful places in the region of Lombardy.  And it is, until nowadays, that Lake Como is a glamorous and prestigious destination with many artistic and cultural gems. The greatest testimony of this importance are the historic villas that decorate its coasts. Nowadays, thanks to them, it is possible to travel in time and relive the lives of historical and contemporary figures.

The villas .  In Como city you can admire Villa Olmo, an imposing neoclassical villa, dating back to 1782 and which has been the historic mansion of Napoleon. Continuing northwards, you might have a sneak peek of Villa d’Este, one of the most famous 5-star hotels on the lake and today the site of the famous Concours d’Élégance famous for its classic cars. Just before  Tremezzo, in the small town of Lenno, stands Villa Balbianello where some scenes of “Star Wars: Episode II” and “007 Casino Royale” were shot.

The owners and guests of these villas have one thing in common: all of them have been on Lake Como not only to see its natural beauty, but to experience the territory and the so-called Italian Dolce Vita.

Friendly service, nice boats in great location on Lake Como

We twice went boating on boats from Varenna Rent-A-Boat and both times really enjoyed. The rental company is run by a father and his sons, they are friendly, service-minded and always happy to help. In addition, Varenna is a great place to start your tour as it is pretty much perfectly in the middle of the lake, so you can go anywhere you like and get a good view of all that Lake Como has to offer. Great experience!

My husband emailed them in the morning and we were able to hire a boat that afternoon! Very impressed by how quick they replied. Great service, boat was very good and well maintained. It’s an awesome way to see Lake Como, and very fun getting to take the boat ourselves. Recommend this to everyone but especially this company!

- Leeny Thorne

Amazing day!

Great experience! The staff was very friendly and the boats are in a perfect condition. We took a boat for a 2 hours trip which is enough time if you don’t want to stop for a jump into the water.

- Julian Hipp

Wonderful way to explore and view the area - reserve one and arrive early to avoid stress from difficulty parking

We rented a six person boat for an hour and were very satisfied. Staff were super friendly. Boat was immaculate. An hour was plenty but two would have been a little better. This area is just gorgeous. If you don’t have a reservation then better be there early since availability of boats and parking (up at the station) will be a problem. We were lucky. I would recommend making a reservation.

A 1st Class Operation

We have driven all over Lake Como and have visited many wonderful places. Nothing compares to seeing all of the villages by boat. The 1st time we went out for 2 hrs. It was so incredible we went again the following week for 4 hrs. Roberto and Federiko (father and son) have beautiful boats, and give you the instructions you require to take the boat out. They are there to greet you when you return and truly care that you had a nice time. There is a map of the lake on the boat and depending on how long you are going to be out, they can suggest how to best use your time and where to go. I cant say enough about how nice these gentlemen are and what a terrific time we had both times we we out. Don’t miss this opportunity.

Some of our PICTURES

We are Federico and Cristina. In January 2019, we saw our dream boat, an Alpa 38, and decided that it was the right moment to start our new adventure. Shortly after, we created  Bellagio Yacht Experience . After a bit of TLC and a few upgrades, Rafilù was finally ready to set sail.

Sailing is the perfect activity to relax and have fun while enjoying the astonishing beauty of Lake Como. Every tour is uniquely tailored to fit our customers’ needs and desires, making them feel cocooned and part of our family.

Federico has 10 years of experience as a sailing instructor on the lake, besides being a crew member on vintage vessels during historical regattas. He also served as 2nd officer on a tall ship cruising the Mediterranean. He is a proficient mechanic, an expert restorer of vintage boats, a professional diver, and last but not least, the skipper of  Rafilù .

Besides being an expert sailor herself, Cristina is also the creative mind behind  Bellagio Yacht Experience . Thanks to her incredible eye for detail and tasteful touch, she will ensure every aspect of your experience is perfect. When renting our  gozzo , she will tell you the best spots to enjoy the lake as well as some helpful driving advice.

We will do everything possible to make your tour, wedding, birthday, or event unforgettable and to show you the hidden gems of Lake Como.

All our tours are private, personalized, and have no hidden fees.

We just got back from our 3h cruise around Bellagio, Varenna and all the beautiful Villas. It was absolutely perfect! The boat, the Prosecco, the snacks, the knowledgeable and friendly guide/owner and above all the beautiful scenery. I think it’s the best way to view all lake como has to offer. Communication and booking was super easy as well. I highly recommend booking with Federico!

The most wonderful part of our weeks in Italy. Cristina and Frederico were so wonderful and helpful.

Floating in Lake Como at sunset enjoying wine and Fredeico’s joyful personality was fantastic. The peace of sailing, and the beauty of the countryside was so calming.

I cannot recommend this highly enough. We will look back on this with happiness and recall fun filled stories from Frederico.

Grazie mille!

Debbie Mistick

Truly the highlight of our trip/ Federico was a gem – kind, funny, intelligent, articulate and just a wonderful human to spend three glorious hours with while seeing the beautiful Lake Como. Complete with delicious snacks and Prosecco this was worth every penny. By the end of our trip we loved Federico so much we invited him and his wife to dinner! This tour is a must on your trip and make sure to ask for Federico! Thank you for the beautiful day and lifetime memories!

Dana Sabatino

This is the best sail experience from Bellagio on Lake Como! Federico was so kind, and it was great to get destination information from a local during our tour. The lake is absolutely gorgeous, especially from a sailboat. I am a travel agent in the United States and will 100% be recommending Bellagio Yacht Experience to my clients, friends, and family!

Jennifer Hunter

Absolutely fantastic experience. Frederico and his wife who run the company were extremely accommodating and changed our time last minute due to weather concerns, and the tour could not have been better. Frederico was knowledgeable, fun, and nice, as he showed us around the lake and its many villas. The boat was spacious and beautiful, and the provided Prosecco and snacks were a nice touch.

Dennis Vaysburg

Dall’alba al tramonto nel più bel lago del mondo, visitando le splendide ville del lago con Federico che ci ha illustrato tutto con grande piacere e cordialità. Una giornata indimenticabile.

Soak in the stunning views of the villas and mansions sitting on the shore, dip in the sparkling blue water and enjoy the tranquillity of nature.

What are you waiting for? Start planning the sailing holiday of a lifetime with a boat charter in Como with Click&Boat !

How much does it cost to rent a boat in Como?

The price of a boat charter in Como will vary depending on factors such as the location, number of passengers on board, time of year, and make and model of the boat. In addition, extra amenities and services such as a skipper and equipment can be included or added at an extra cost.

Below are the average prices for a Como boat rental by boat type :

What does it include?

Be aware that additional costs might arise, including fuel, skipper fees, food, and drinks. Some rentals offer extras like sports equipment. Confirm any extra fees or included items before booking.

Renting a boat with a skipper usually costs around € 100 per day . The boat will come equipped with all necessary safety and navigation gear. Reach out to the boat owner prior to booking to verify the rental details and what is included.

Rent a boat with or without a skipper

If you're looking for a sailing holiday with an all-inclusive atmosphere and unparalleled security, opt for a skippered boat rental in Como . Indeed, skippered vessels are usually more expensive than bareboat charters, but the extra cost is well worth it for added peace of mind on the water. Skippers are nautical professionals that will dock, anchor and navigate the vessel for you so that you don't have to worry about anything but having the time of your life.

But perhaps the best part of having a skipper on board is the fact that they are locals of the area who can give you recommendations about where to go and what to see , and even show you some hidden spots that only locals would know about!

For renting without a skipper boat licence , choose the type of boat, check licensing requirements , and pick your location. Research reputable rental companies, compare options, and make a reservation, providing necessary documents like a boating licence .

Where to sail in Como?

Como offers some of the best sailing experiences in Italy . Popular spots include the picturesque town of Bellagio, known as the " Pearl of the Lake ", where you can enjoy stunning views and charming streets. Varenna is another excellent destination with its beautiful gardens and historic villas. For a lively atmosphere, sail to Menaggio, which offers a mix of culture and relaxation. The town of Como itself is also a great starting point, with its beautiful waterfront and access to various sailing routes. Each destination along Como provides a unique blend of natural beauty and cultural richness, making it a perfect place for sailing enthusiasts.

What can you see and do with in Como?

Como is a dreamy destination with a perfect combination of natural beauty, history, culture and delicious cuisine. With so much to see and do, you will fall in love with this charming Italian town. Here are some recommendations for doing things while on a Como boat charter :

Sunbathe at the small beach in Lido di Cernobbio , a public park on the western shore of the lake, or head to Villa Olmo on the eastern shore and enjoy the green gardens. S ail to the secluded beach in the small village of Moltrasio . Here, you'll find a tiny stretch of sand nestled between two cliffs, accessible only by boat. This hidden gem offers clear waters and stunning views, making it an excellent spot for a peaceful swim. Practise water sports on the lake! You'll be surrounded by other sports enthusiasts who are windsurfing, kitesurfing, water-skiing and stand-up paddleboarding. Take a day trip and explore other stunning destinations in the Lake Como region . Sail to the stunning Varenna , a picturesque fishing village on Lake Como's eastern shore. With its colourful houses and stunning waterfront, Varenna is a great place to spend a day relaxing and taking in the beauty of the lake. You can also visit to Bellagio , for a day trip, a beautiful village. Here you can experience the vibrant waterfront and charming old town decorated with extravagant villas. Sail to Isola Comacina , the only island near Como, and enjoy panoramic views of the lake and surrounding areas. Learn about the fascinating Roman history of the island and explore the mediaeval architectural and archaeological remains. Visit the gothic Como Cathedral and admire its intricate details and stunning views from the bell tower.

The harbours in Como

Como boasts several excellent harbours that cater to sailors:

Marina di Como

Located near the city centre, this harbour offers easy access to restaurants, shops, and historical sites.

Darsena di Sant'Agostino

Situated close to the Como Cathedral , this harbour is perfect for those who want to explore the city's cultural attractions.

Cernobbio Harbor

Just a short sail from Como, this harbour provides a picturesque setting with beautiful views and access to luxurious villas.

Tavernola Harbor

Ideal for those looking for a quieter spot, this harbour is located on the outskirts of Como and offers a more relaxed atmosphere.

Each harbour in Como provides unique amenities and convenient access to the lake's most beautiful destinations, ensuring a memorable sailing experience.

What is the best time of year to rent a boat in Como?

The best time to rent a yacht in Como is during the summer months between June and September , when the weather is warm and sunny and the water is calm. You can expect average high temperatures of 27°C , perfect for spending time on the lake.

However, it's worth noting that summer is also the busiest time of year as tourists flock to Como. If you prefer a quieter, more budget-friendly experience, consider visiting in the shoulder season , in April , May , and October . This is one of the best times to visit, with cooler but pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

What type of vessel should I choose to rent a boat in Como?

When choosing a vessel for your Como yacht hire, it's essential to consider how much time you'll spend on board. If you only want to cruise around Como for a few days, we'd recommend a half or full day rental on a RIB or a motorboat. These vessels are fast and help you see everything on your travel itinerary in no time!

On the other hand, we'd recommend a weekly charter, such as a sailboat, for a more extended trip. These vessels are best for an authentic and traditional sailing experience, however. They can be tricky to navigate, so it's always best to choose one with a skipper. No matter what you're looking for, Click&Boat offers a variety of boats. There’s no doubt that you will find your ideal boat type for your dream Lake Como yacht charter. Happy sailing!

Dama di Bellagio

Born and raised on the shores of Lake Garda, I was initially fascinated by the world of flying and aviation thanks to my father who was a military pilot. Then, living in this beautiful place, the “call” of water became stronger and stronger so I was able to get in touch with very high-level activities in both the world of regatta and leisure sailing, thus easily ranging from the America’s Cup to the developememt of Maxi Sail Yachts.

All this has made it possible to enormously expand my horizons linked to my passion for water. After the long “international” parenthesis, I was in fact, for some years in command of a historic sailing ship sailing right on Lake Garda.

Now I am happy to start a collaboration in Lake Como with Bellagio Sailing as the skipper of Dama di Bellagio.

I began sailing dinghies when I was 15 on Lake Como , then I eventually cross the Atlantic for the first time in 2006 while I was studying geology at the University, and year after year my passion became a real job, that make me sail across the oceans on boats from Oceanis 36’ to Swan 76’. In around 10 years of time I did 30.000+ NM of deliveries and charter, both as captain and crew in the Med, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. From 2010 to 2018 I worked as skipper and first mate on different kind of sail boats everywhere in the world.

In 2019 Carlo gave me the opportunity to start a collaboration with Bellagio Sailing as skipper of Stai Serena
