Motorboat rental in Mielno — locations, prices and everything worth knowing before the first sail on Lake Jamno.
A motorboat on Lake Jamno is one of the best ways for an active holiday in Mielno — fast, private and available without licences. We check where to rent one, how much it costs and what to pay attention to before setting off.
Motorboat rental in Mielno comes down to one place, one lake and several boat variants. Below — licence, prices, available models and what the whole procedure from entry to setting off looks like.
Do you need a licence to rent a motorboat in Mielno?
For motorboats with an engine up to 10 HP — no. The completed 18th year of life and an ID card are enough. Stronger units require a licence, but the offer also includes cruises with a captain — you go on board, sit down and sail, the staff takes care of the rest. It is a much more expensive option, but it allows you to experience higher speed and greater comfort. The current price list can be found on the page mielno-water-fun.pl.
Most tourists set off on Jamno without any water documents. The briefing is given on the spot, as below. It is a water sport that has to be approached with respect, but the staff of the main rental in Mielno, Water Fun, will take care of the greatest safety on the water.
What motorboat rentals are in Mielno?
The only motorboat rental in Mielno is Water Fun. The company operates at three points: ul. Chrobrego 23, ul. Chrobrego 30C and ul. Pontonierów 20 — all open in the summer season.
Despite the high tourist traffic, there are rather no queues — there is so much equipment that rotation works efficiently. Water Fun also offers jet skis in Mielno and pedal boats, so you can combine several things in one day at the lake.
What motorboats can be rented in Mielno?
Three variants to choose from, depending on how many of you there are and what you are looking for.
Classic open motorboats take up to 5 people — this is the most common choice, both for couples and families with children. An electric catamaran takes up to 8 people and is quiet — the lack of a combustion engine makes a difference if you care about peace. Covered motorboats are useful in worse weather or when you want some privacy on the water.
Everything takes place on Lake Jamno (there is no possibility of going out to sea) — a calm body of water without sea waves. More about what this place offers in the article about the attractions on Lake Jamno.
How much does motorboat rental cost in Mielno?
200 PLN for 30 minutes, 350 PLN for an hour. Included in the price are fuel, life vests and a briefing — no additional charges. You pay in advance at reception, right after choosing the option from the price list. Remember, you must be of legal age and sober; under Art. 178a of the Penal Code if you sail under the influence of alcohol, you lose your licence for everything. The reservation is most conveniently handled online via the Water Fun website.
What does motorboat rental look like step by step?
After entering, you pass the reception and the zone with life vests. You choose a variant from the price list, pay, get life vests and go to the assigned boat. The staff is young and concrete — they do not waste time.
You board one by one, with life vests already on. Before setting off, you get a briefing in two parts. First — the rules on the water: slow setting off and entering the marina, the ban on approaching other units, watch out for boats and seaplanes, and on return you wait for the staff’s signal to enter. The second part — operating the motorboat itself: throttle, steering, behaviour on the water.
The whole takes a few minutes. You do not need any technical knowledge.
