Our opinion

Acquasport 17.5 Open in Porto Ercole, heading for the coast

From Porto Ercole, the Acquasport 17.5 Open lets you take to the sea independently and explore the bays near the Argentario coastline. Without a boating license, you enjoy an outing at your own pace, provided you stay within the designated area: the islands are not accessible with this boat.

A small open boat, equipped for the day

Launched in 2010, this Acquasport 17 is a 5.5-meter motorboat with a 40-horsepower engine. It accommodates up to four passengers and is rented without a skipper: you take the helm yourself, without a nautical license. Its open format suits a coastal outing in a small group, rather than a crossing to the open sea or the islands.

On board, the sun awning provides a shaded spot, while the front sunbathing area and outdoor cushions offer a place to settle during breaks. A swim ladder makes it easy to climb back aboard after a swim, and a USB port is also available. The listed rate starts at €220 per day; fuel is not included and remains the renter's responsibility. Remember to factor this cost into your budget before booking.

A day at sea along the Argentario

Departing from Porto Ercole, I recommend favoring the coves and bays accessible along the coast, keeping navigation close to shore. The Argentario peninsula offers a beautiful setting for alternating between cruising and swimming, but the listing specifies that this boat cannot reach the islands: so don't plan on Giglio or Giannutri. The rental is self-service, without a skipper and without a license; follow the instructions given at departure and adapt your outing to the weather and your experience.

This model is best suited to a small group that wants to discover the coastline without organizing a long crossing. To make the most of the day, check the booking conditions and the fuel cost, then book early enough if you're targeting a very popular period. It's a simple way to set out to sea from Porto Ercole, while keeping the coves of the Argentario within easy reach.
