Overview

Watching dolphins swim free alongside the sailboat is a moment few
experiences on land can match — an encounter many of our passengers
describe as magical and unforgettable, one that fills you with awe and
respect for these creatures.

From the sea, the view of Marbella is unlike any other: the Golden Mile,
the La Concha mountains, and on the clearest days, even the northern
coast of Africa can be made out on the horizon, surrounded by that
silvery blue so characteristic of summer in this area.

All of this is experienced in a small group of no more than 9 people,
which makes every trip feel personal and relaxed — never like a mass
tour.

When the sea allows, we stop for a swim in crystal-clear waters, and
back on board, we toast with a glass of cava as the sailboat continues
on its course.

It's an afternoon that combines nature, scenery, and a moment of calm
out at sea.

What To Expect

Personal sailing, with a captain by your side the whole way

This is a real sailing trip — under sail — with a licensed captain who
takes the time to walk you through the route and answer any questions
before setting off.

We sail with a small group of up to 9 people along the Marbella coast,
keeping an eye out for dolphins (never guaranteed, but a frequent sight
in this area). When the sea allows, we stop for a swim in crystal-clear
waters with views of the Golden Mile and La Concha.
