Setting Sail: What to Expect on Your Yacht Trip
When you book this private yacht experience, you’re reserving a modern, spacious Azimut 46 yacht that departs from Barcelona’s Port Olympic. The yacht comfortably hosts up to 11 guests, making it perfect for a family gathering, a birthday celebration, or a friends’ outing. The boat is crewed by a knowledgeable captain—reviewers often praise the host, Dani, for being friendly and accommodating—who guides you along the coastline, offering insider tips and ensuring a relaxed atmosphere.
The yacht features advanced motion stabilization technology, known as Sea Keeper, which practically eliminates the side-to-side rocking that can sometimes spoil the view. This makes the trip especially appealing for those who might otherwise feel uneasy at sea or for travelers who want maximum comfort. The crew ensures that all guests have towels and plenty of space to sunbathe or lounge.
The Route & Highlights of the Day
Most trips stay within the Barcelona coastline, offering spectacular views of the city’s skyline—think of the glittering Sagrada Familia spire peeking over the horizon, or the towering W Hotel on the beach. During the cruise, you’ll have the chance to stop for a swim in the Mediterranean, which many guests say is the highlight of the day. The water is usually calm, and the crew kindly provides fresh water for rinsing off afterward.
If you’re celebrating a special occasion, this boat’s private setting is ideal. Several reviews mention the experience is perfect for birthdays or romantic outings, especially with the possibility of catching a sunset. According to one reviewer, “It was beautiful to see the sunset and Barcelona from the water,” which truly captures the enchanting vibe of an evening sail.
Food and Drinks: A La Carte & All-Inclusive
One of the main perks of this experience is the premium drinks service included in the price. You can expect a selection of Catalan cava, local wines, beers, soft drinks, and snacks served onboard, making it a very relaxed and indulgent experience. Guests have raved about the quality of the drinks and the tasty snacks, which add to the overall value.
While the tour doesn’t include food as a standard, the variety of drinks and snacks available make it feel like a brunch or afternoon party on the water. If you’re craving a full meal, you might need to bring your own or inquire about catering options beforehand.
