The pros of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico

One of the advantages of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico is that catamarans are equipped with a sail and an engine, meaning that they are well-prepared for all kinds of weather and wind conditions. You can use the sail when the wind picks up or sail with the engine should the wind suddenly stop.

Another advantage of chartering a catamaran in Puerto Rico is the fact that they have a shallow draft. This makes them the perfect boats to explore the Puerto Rican coast with all its secluded bays, beaches and coves. The west area of the island is considered one of the most beautiful parts of Puerto Rico and catamarans are the perfect boats to explore this area.

If you want to rent a catamaran in Puerto Rico, you will be very happy to know that catamarans are generally quite spacious, making you feel less like sleeping in a tiny cabin on a boat, but more like in a hotelroom on water.

The cons of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico

One of the downsides of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico can be their size. While it might seem amazing to sleep in a room with a lot of space while sailing around the Caribbean, it can come with some difficulties. Space in the marinas is limited and finding a space for mooring with a catamaran can be quite difficult. If you are lucky enough to find a spot for mooring, your enthusiasm might not last for long. Often you have to pay extra for extra space as catamarans can take up more space than other types of boats.

How many people can go on a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Depending on the size of the boat, as well as the amount of beds and bathrooms on board, catamarans can host six or more people. However, they are not necessarily meant for bigger groups of people as their cabin sizes tend to be bigger than others, making them feel more like a hotel room on water rather than a cabin on a boat.

When is the best time to sail on a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Puerto Rico and the Caribbean are known to be blessed with tropical climates. This means that it’s warm almost all year round with temperatures averaging at around 26 degrees. However, the best time for a sailing adventure on a catamaran in Puerto Rico is between January and April. Also, keep in mind that the hurricane season in late summer is definitely not a good time to take a catamaran rental out at sea. In fact, it can be life threatening.

How much does it cost to rent a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Puerto Rico is not the most affordable place when it comes to renting a catamaran. In fact, it will cost an average price of 29.606 EUR for a week to charter a catamaran in Puerto Rico. It is definitely an exclusive destination in the Caribbean for anyone who is willing to spend that extra money.

What kind of boat licence do I need when renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

One of the best things about chartering a catamaran in Puerto Rico is the fact that you don’t need a boat licence to do so. At least if you are not a resident of the island. Just ensure that you know how to operate a catamaran and that the charter gives you all the necessary and important information before you head out at sea.

If you don’t want to drive the catamaran yourself, you can always hire a skipper or captain in addition to your bareboat charter. This gives you plenty of time to relax and enjoy the view - far away from your daily struggles.

The best routes for catamarans in Puerto Rico

One of the most scenic sailing routes on a catamaran in Puerto Rico is starting at Puerto del Rey, a big marina where many sailing holidays start in Puerto Rico. Your first stop is Isla Palominos, an island filled with lush green trees and surrounded by turquoise waters. You will be sure that you have arrived in paradise. Palominos is mainly known for its stunning white sandy beaches. Your next stop is Culebra, an island that is particularly popular among snorkellers. Discover the underwater world by diving into the turquoise waters. If you’re lucky you will spot some turtles here. Tamarindo Beach on Culebra is the perfect spot to do that! Bahia del Almodovar is the next stop on your sailing adventure, a stunning bay with interesting landscapes and turquoise waters. Make sure to get up in time to watch a magical sunrise. The island of Vieques is already waiting for you. With all the plam trees and the magical colour of the water it looks like paradise. Be sure to discover the town Esperanza on the island, a town that is known for its pretty wooden houses. Get a bite to eat before heading out at sea again. La Chiva Beach, or the Blue Beach due its impressive colour, is a must see when visiting Puerto Rico on a catamaran. Sailing with a catamaran gives you the advantage of being able to sail and anchor super close to the shore, meaning that you can explore everything from up close rather than from a distance. Another beach that has a nickname related to a colour is Puntas Arenas, also known as the Green Beach. It got its nickname from its wonderful green surroundings. Once you’ve swam here it’s time to go back to Puerto del Rey to bring your sailing adventure on a catamaran in Puerto Rico to a close.
