Hiring a boat in A Coruña
A Coruña has its harbour in the middle of the city, with Marina Coruña and the dock below the glass galleries, and a small but varied rental fleet: 5 companies, with a no-licence motorboat, jet skis (the top-rated, with more than 160 reviews), a sailing boat, a motor yacht and a water taxi round the ría. From the harbour you sail the Ría de A Coruña to Oleiros and Mera, in sheltered water, or round the Tower of Hercules to Riazor and the Sisargas islands, only in good weather. Sada, 11 km away on the Ría de Ares e Betanzos, has 6 companies and Marina Sada.
The season runs from June to September. The ría is sheltered; beyond the Tower, open Atlantic with swell and a tide of more than three metres. Scheduled cruises run round the ría from the dock.
