Our only self-drive option — a RIB for up to 8 guests. €500/day self-drive (boat licence required) or €650/day with a local professional skipper.
Our Turismo 710 RIB is the fastest way to explore Malta from the sea. Rent it privately for up to 8 guests and drive it yourself with a boat licence for €500 a day, or relax and let our local professional skipper take the wheel for €650. One price for the whole boat, never per person.
It's the only self-drive boat in our fleet: a 150 HP RIB that gets you to Comino's Blue Lagoon, the Crystal Lagoon and Gozo in a fraction of the time. Group bigger than 8? See our catamarans and yacht for up to 55 guests, or compare all 9 boats on our boat rental Malta page.
Check dates & book
Board at Roland Marina, Pontoon D, Ta' Xbiex, or at our Sliema base, both at no extra cost. The RIB doesn't do pickups elsewhere: we meet you at one of the two bases to check your licence and show you the boat. Book online with a €200 deposit and pay the balance on the day by card, cash or Revolut. If the wind reaches Force 5 or above and we cancel, your deposit is refunded in full.
To drive a motor boat yourself in Malta you need a recognised boat licence, such as an ICC, an RYA Day Skipper or a Transport Malta licence. We accept recognised licences from any country: just bring yours on the day.
No licence in your group? Book the RIB with a skipper. You still get the speed and freedom of a RIB, with someone local at the helm. All our other boats always come with a skipper. For the full rules, read our guide: Do You Need a Licence to Rent a Boat in Malta?

About 22 km up the coast. Swim in the Blue Lagoon and the quieter Crystal Lagoon, our most popular RIB trip.

Cross to Gozo's cliffs and quiet bays and stop there for lunch. Easy in a day on a fast RIB.

Explore caves and coves along Malta's coast that bigger boats can't reach, and stop wherever you like for a swim.
For more than 8 guests, or for a slower day with more shade and space, choose our sailing yacht or one of our catamarans. All come with a skipper included, and prices are for the whole boat, never per person.




Our Turismo 710 RIB costs €500 a day self-drive (boat licence required) or €650 a day with a skipper, for the whole boat and up to 8 guests, from 10:00 to 18:00. Fuel is extra.
