What to Bring on a Boat Charter in Malta

A private boat charter in Malta should be relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable. Preparing a few essentials before your trip will help you make the most of your day at sea.

Whether you are booking a full day charter, sunset charter, family trip, catamaran experience or private sailing charter, it is always best to come prepared.

Swimwear and Towels

If your charter includes swimming stops, bring swimwear and a towel. You may also wish to bring a light change of clothes, especially if you are joining a sunset charter or planning to go somewhere after the trip.

Sunscreen and Sun Protection

The Maltese sun can be strong, especially during summer. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat or light cover-up. Even when there is a breeze at sea, it is still easy to get sun exposure.

Comfortable Clothing

Wear light, comfortable clothing and avoid heavy outfits. Flat shoes or boat-friendly footwear are recommended. Some guests prefer to go barefoot on board, depending on the boat rules.

Personal Items

Bring any personal medication you may need, together with a phone charger or power bank. If you are prone to seasickness, you may wish to take precautions before boarding.

It is also useful to keep your belongings in a small bag rather than bringing too many items on board.

Food and Drinks

Some charters include water or drinks, while others offer optional food and beverage packages. If catering is not included, ask in advance what you may bring with you.

For private charters, food and beverage arrangements should always be confirmed before the trip.

Booking Confirmation

Keep your booking confirmation or payment details available in case they are needed before departure.

Enjoy the Experience

The best advice is to keep things simple. Bring what you need, avoid overpacking and enjoy your private boat charter in Malta.
