Private Boat Rental from Gouves on Valory 480 – No Captain, No License 

Absolutely perfect experience! The contact with George was easy, fast and very friendly. They went out of their way to make sure that we can have a great time. The boat was brand new and in perfect condition – pricing for the half day is more than okay. All in all an excellent experience and at least 5 stars for the customer service!

Absolutely amazing experience with Black Anchor!
I went on a 2-hour boat trip and it was simply perfect. The boat was super clean, and everything was explained to me in detail — I felt completely supported and safe the entire time.

The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and full of understanding. The boat was very secure, and we even had Bluetooth on board to play our own music, which made the ride even more enjoyable.

I’m 100% sure you won’t find an experience like this anywhere else in Crete.
You guys are the best — you clearly deserve 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The best experience we ever had. All the boats were awesome and clean. The instructions were straight forward and easy to follow. Thank you for this amazing experience.

I recently had the pleasure of renting a boat from Black Anchor Boat Rentals, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! George (the owner) was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the rental process smooth and hassle-free. The boat itself was in pristine condition, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary safety features and more, eg mobile phone with Navionics map and necessary phone numbers.

We spent a beautiful day out on the water at Dia’s Island bays, exploring the stunning scenery and enjoying the serene environment. The boat was comfortable and easy to handle, perfect for both experienced boaters and those new to the experience. I was particularly impressed by the detailed briefing we received before setting out, ensuring we felt confident and well-prepared for our adventure.

Black Anchor Boat Rentals also offers excellent value for money, with competitive pricing and a variety of rental options to suit different needs and preferences. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was evident in every interaction, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.

I highly recommend Black Anchor Boat Rentals to anyone looking for a fantastic boating experience. We can’t wait to rent from them again on our next trip!

The best experience we had. Beautiful boats and the service was outstanding. And most important you don’t need a boat license to drive the boat.

Very accommodating and professional boat rental service in Crete. Highly recommended.

Friendly instructor and a very nice boat! We had fun!

Great! The best boat rental service in the area! The boats are new, in perfect condition, clean and comfortable. Every boat comes with onboard GPS navigation, which makes them very easy to drive, even if you are a beginner. The owners are very nice and kind people, they explained everything and were so polite and helpful. Everything went smoothly and we enjoyed it a lot. We highly recommend it!

Perfect equipment and service. George is friendly, helpful and professional. We enjoyed a wonderful boat trip, thanks to excellent preparation. We will be back next year.

Amazing day thanks to George! We rented the combi deal with two boats and we got a good instruction. George puts the safety first which is very important. Thankyou!

I recommend it to you without a second thought!! Unique experience and professionalism!

Super professional service. Manager is always available for any questions.

This was our first experience of booking a boat without a license and it was a success thanks to George! The communication for the booking was very smooth and the on-site instructions were excellent. We had a great time as a family of 4 on the Valory 480. Thank you very much! 🛥️ ️

Simple booking. Absolutely beautiful boats. Perfect instructions. Constant contact with the team on shore is guaranteed. There are tips and routes for the route. This Black Anchor team is highly recommended

Many, many thanks to the whole team.

We had an unforgettable trip with the rented boat.

Everyone in the team was extremely friendly and helpful.

They explained very well what to look out for.

We would love to go again 🙂

Top service, top boat, not a worn out rental boat. Communication with George beforehand was perfect. A completely satisfied trip and a definite recommendation to rent a boat from Black Anchor

My wife and I rented one of the boats for 6 hours. Everything was really great. The instructions about the rules and the boat were very easy to understand and explained in detail. George, who advised us, was very friendly and warm. He was always there for us by phone during the boat tour and always helped us if we had any problems or questions.
Overall 5 stars. Can only be recommended.
Price performance compared to other providers Top!
The contact and service was very warm!

Thank you for the wonderful tour and wonderful memories!

Top experience. Boat in excellent condition, good explanation and communication in good English. Picked up friendly and on time. You will receive a phone for navigation with which you can also call the owner in case of emergency. Free snorkel set available. Sufficient parking in the management area/port area. As far as I am concerned, this owner is highly recommended.
