Get a quoteThe boats leave from three marinas in Barcelona, all on the metro: Port Olímpic (the sailboats and the 26- and 126-seat catamarans, ten minutes from the Barceloneta), Marina Vela (the luxury sailboat, next to the W Hotel) and Port Vell (the Bali catamarans, opposite the Columbus monument). The usual route is the same for all of them: out past the breakwater, along the skyline to the Fòrum or until Tibidabo comes into view, a swim off the beaches and back with the sunset if it is the last departure. For guests staying in the Garraf, we also have boats in Sitges, from Port d’Aiguadolç, and for groups flying into Spain every marina is under 20 minutes from Barcelona airport by taxi.
The best season to go sailing in Barcelona runs from May to October; July and August are high season, and June and September weekends sell out 3–4 weeks ahead. From November to March the Mediterranean is usually calm, most days are sunny and the charter companies give a 10 % discount: the best value for proposals, anniversaries and corporate events. In genuinely bad weather (strong wind or rain) the skipper moves the date at no cost. If you want a boat in Barcelona just to enjoy the coast, without a celebration, we do that too: a private 2-hour sailing trip along the city with a swim included, and motorboat options on request.

Boat rental marketplaces in Barcelona list hundreds of boats from private owners, often without a licence check on the renter, without a fixed skipper and with deposits that appear at checkout. We work with five professional yacht charter companies in Barcelona that we know boat by boat, with agreed all-inclusive rates, and we know which one fits your group: the sailboat for a proposal, the 26-seat catamaran for a loud hen do, the party boat for a corporate day out with a DJ. We also organise what happens on board (cocktail class, tapas, cake, photographer, decoration) and what happens afterwards (dinner and the night out in Barcelona), and we answer in English, Spanish, Catalan and Russian. If you only want the boat, that works too: the same rate as at the charter company, with no commission for you.
Boat party, birthday, hen or stag do, marriage proposal or sunset sailing in Barcelona: each occasion has its own page with the boat rental that works best and what each guest pays.

We rented the 26-seat catamaran in Barcelona for my sister’s birthday: €810 for 2 hours, bar included, 20 people. They sent three options within half an hour and there were no surprise extras.

Luxury yacht from Marina Vela for the proposal, with a bouquet and a photographer on board. The whole rate in writing before booking. She said yes.

Corporate day out for 80 on the party boat with a DJ, with colleagues flying into Barcelona from all over Spain. Compared with the marketplaces, here we knew exactly what was included and who our skipper was. Booking again for Christmas.
