About chartering in Berlin
Chartering in Berlin offers a unique blend of urban history and serene waterways, letting you glide past iconic landmarks from the comfort of a private boat. The setting is defined by the winding Spree River cutting through the city center, flanked by historic bridges and modern architecture that reflect beautifully on the water. You depart primarily from Treptow Marina in the southeast, which boasts over 300 berths, or from the well-known Marina Lanke in the west.
From these main departure points, a day trip easily reaches the expansive Wannsee Lake and the tranquil Tegeler See for swimming and relaxation. The Havel River connects you to the surrounding countryside, providing endless opportunities to explore hidden gems away from the city hustle. Whether you choose a sleek motorboat or a classic sailboat, the waters around Berlin offer a perfect escape for leisure and adventure.
