Sailing experience on a 4-hour sailboat in Girona
Overview
The best way to navigate the Mediterranean as they did in ancient times pushed only by the force of the wind and with the only noise of the waves breaking in the hull.
We have the only sailing boat that leaves Platja d'Aro with a capacity of up to 9 people plus the skipper.
Our Havana sailboat built in 2005 is a 35-foot Jeanneau Sun Odyssey. It allows a pleasant sailing thanks to its mainsail and bowsail Genova.
Don’t worry if you come by car, there is a car park next to our facilities. During the summer season parking is available for a fee.

What To Expect
We will meet at the facilities of the sailing school located on the beach next to the port where the skipper of the beautiful sailing boat "Havana" is waiting for you.
Together we will walk to the sailboat and set sail from the Port of Playa de Aro to enjoy sailing for 4 hours, stop in a cove to take a bath, snorkel and row with the paddle surf board.
We will head north or south depending on the weather, always looking for the best corner of the Costa Brava protected from the sea and the wind.
During the navigation you will have the opportunity to introduce yourself to the basic concepts of sailing and collaborate in all the maneuvers.
You can also listen to your favorite music, take a fresh water shower or drink something refreshing since we have a fridge on board where you can put your drinks.
In our 10.5 meter sailboat we have capacity for up to 9 people plus the skipper.
You can choose between 2 schedules, morning or afternoon.

Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use. However, if you feel more comfortable using your own snorkeling equipment, feel free to bring it on the tour. Please note, there is no discount for providing your own equipment and we can’t be responsible for any lost or damaged items.
May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
