What to expect on this private sailing tour
Boat rental in Barcelona with no licence required
You do not need a licence because a professional skipper handles sailing, safety and manoeuvres. The boat is reserved for your group, so you can enjoy the sea without sharing the plan with other passengers.
A fully tailored private trip
Duration is agreed before booking. Tell the team whether you want a short ride, celebration, sunset, several sailing hours or a longer day so they can propose the right boat and schedule.
Skyline, swimming and water activities
The usual route starts at Port Olímpic and follows Barcelona's coast. Depending on duration and sea conditions, it may include swimming, paddleboarding or snorkelling. The skipper decides the final safe route and activities.
Drinks, snacks, towels and music
The proposal may include cava, beer, soft drinks, water and snacks with cheese, Catalan fuet, olives, chips and bread. Towels, Bluetooth and water equipment depend on the assigned boat and must be confirmed.
For families, friends and celebrations
A skippered charter suits couples, families, groups of friends, birthdays, proposals and small company gatherings. If children are joining or you need a special service, mention it before booking so the team can check the right boat.
