Seeing Barcelona from the sea at sunset is one of those plans hardly anyone does and that really pays off: small group, drink in hand and the city lighting up from the water. Perfect for a couple or a group of friends.

The experience
What you'll do
A two-hour sunset sail on a Beneteau Oceanis 41 yacht. After a short safety briefing you slip the lines and motor out of Port Vell — past the cruise liners, superyachts and the Columbus statue — then the skipper hoists the sails and you glide along the Barcelona coastline as the city lights up. You can relax with a drink, help sail, or take a dip in the sea.
It's a small group (maximum 12) with an open bar (cava, wine and beers) and snacks on board.
What's included
- Use of the yacht including fuel, with a multilingual skipper and guide
- Life jackets
- Open bar (cava, wine and beers) and snacks
Not included: hotel transfers, tips, and towel/swimwear.
How it works
Meeting point at Marina Vela, Port Vell. Minimum age 8. Bring a towel and swimwear if you want to swim, and a light layer for when the sun goes down. It's weather-dependent: if it's cancelled for poor conditions you get an alternative date or a full refund. Note there's a small gap boarding from the pontoon, so it isn't suitable for wheelchairs (you can be helped the short distance to the seats).
Who I'd recommend it to
- Couples after a romantic evening, and anyone who wants Barcelona from the water at golden hour.
- Small groups of friends who want drinks, snacks and a swim at sunset.
- Not ideal if you need full accessibility or want a high-speed ride.
Cancellation policy
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start, with a full refund.
