Marbella Luxury Coast Tour by Sailboat – Puerto Banús Discovery

Marbella luxury coast tour: sailboat gliding past Puerto Banús marina with yachts and golden coastline.
Teak deck beneath your feet, champagne in hand — the Costa del Sol from its best angle.

Why This Tour Stands Out

  • Intimate experience: Small groups (max 11 guests) on a spacious sailboat — no overcrowded decks.
  • Luxury coast perspective: See Puerto Banús' superyacht harbor, celebrity villas, and Marbella's golden beaches from the water.
  • Swim stops: Anchor in secluded coves with crystal-clear water; snorkeling gear and paddleboards included.
  • Onboard comfort: Drinks (water, soft drinks, beer, wine, cava), snacks, Bluetooth music, and attentive crew.
  • Flexible timing: Morning, midday, or sunset departures — each offers distinct light and energy.

What's Included

  • Professional skipper and crew
  • Drinks: water, soft drinks, beer, white wine, cava
  • Light snacks and fresh fruit
  • Snorkeling equipment
  • Paddleboard (SUP)
  • Bluetooth sound system
  • Safety equipment and insurance

Tour Highlights

  • Puerto Banús harbor: Glide past rows of superyachts and waterfront restaurants as you leave the marina.
  • Coastal views: Sierra Blanca mountain backdrop, white villas cascading down hillsides, and the iconic Marbella skyline.
  • Swimming stops: Drop anchor in quiet bays where the water shifts from turquoise to deep blue; jump in, snorkel, or paddleboard.
  • Sunset magic (evening tours): Watch the sun sink behind the mountains while sipping cava on deck.

Who Is This Tour For?

  • Couples: Romantic sunset sails with champagne and mountain views.
  • Friends & celebrations: Birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or just a luxe afternoon.
  • Families: Safe, spacious boat with swimming and paddleboard fun (children welcome with supervision).
  • First-time sailors: Stable catamaran design; crew handles everything while you relax.

Best Time to Go

  • Sunset departures: Golden light, cooler temperatures, most romantic atmosphere.
  • Midday sails: Warmest water for swimming; vibrant blues and greens.
  • Morning cruises: Calmer seas, fewer boats, peaceful start to the day.
  • Seasonal note: April–October ideal for swimming; year-round departures for scenic cruising.

Insider Tips

  • Book the sunset slot: Most atmospheric and often sells out first in peak season.
  • Arrive 15 minutes early: Parking near Puerto Banús can be tight; walk-in time helps.
  • Ask about dolphins: Crew knows when pods are active nearby — sometimes you'll spot them.
  • Bring a Bluetooth playlist: Connect to the boat's system and set your own vibe.
  • Light meal before: Snacks are provided, but eat something beforehand if you're prone to seasickness.

Combine With

  • Puerto Banús stroll: Explore designer boutiques and waterfront dining before or after your sail.
  • Marbella Old Town: 15-minute drive to whitewashed streets, Plaza de los Naranjos, and tapas bars.
  • Beach clubs: Spend the afternoon at Nikki Beach or Ocean Club, then sail at sunset.
  • Ronda day trip: Inland mountain town with dramatic gorge and historic bridges (45 minutes away).

There's something about seeing the coast from a sailboat — the quiet glide, the open water, the way the mountains seem closer. Marbella's luxury isn't just in its marinas and villas; it's in moments like these, where elegance feels effortless.
