Spain

Sunshine, lively coastal cities and beautiful island landscapes make Spain a wonderfully varied destination for a yacht charter. A Spanish yacht charter offers three distinct options, from the turquoise coves and relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle of the Balearic Islands to the vibrant waterfront of Barcelona or the volcanic scenery of the Canary Islands. Spend your days swimming in secluded bays, exploring historic ports or enjoying long lunches overlooking the water, with excellent Spanish food and culture adding character to every stop. Whether you are drawn to Mediterranean island-hopping or winter sun and Atlantic sailing, sailing in Spain offers a rewarding mix of scenery, culture and freedom on the water.

Balearic Islands

Turquoise bays, dramatic coastlines and elegant Mediterranean harbours make the Balearic Islands one of Europe’s most appealing yacht charter destinations. A Balearic Islands yacht charter offers a choice of distinct island experiences, from Mallorca’s mountain-backed coves and lively Palma to Menorca’s quieter beaches and Ibiza’s celebrated restaurants and nightlife. Sail between sheltered anchorages, swim in clear blue water and head ashore to explore historic towns, traditional villages and waterfront restaurants. For a change of pace, the smaller island of Formentera offers beautiful sandy beaches and a relaxed, barefoot atmosphere. With varied cruising grounds, excellent dining and plenty of opportunities to explore under sail, sailing in the Balearic Islands combines Mediterranean style with the freedom to discover each island at your own pace.

  • Sailing season: April through October

Barcelona

A vibrant waterfront, striking architecture and a rich Catalan culture make Barcelona an exciting starting point for a yacht charter. A Barcelona yacht charter combines the energy of one of Spain’s most compelling cities with the freedom to explore the Catalan coast or cross the Mediterranean to the Balearic Islands. Discover Gaudí’s extraordinary architecture, wander the historic streets of the Gothic Quarter and enjoy tapas and seafood in lively waterfront restaurants before setting sail. Along the mainland coast, quieter fishing towns, sandy beaches and sheltered coves offer a change of pace, while the Balearics open up a world of turquoise bays, beautiful island harbours and relaxed Mediterranean living. With culture, cuisine and the choice of coastal cruising or a longer passage to the islands, sailing from Barcelona offers a rewarding blend of city life and adventure at sea.

  • Sailing season: April through October

The Canary Islands

Winter sun, reliable trade winds and dramatic volcanic landscapes make a Canary Islands yacht charter a superb alternative to the usual Mediterranean routes. A sailing holiday in the Canary Islands combines excellent sailing conditions with rugged coastlines, secluded beaches, lively harbour towns and a distinctly Spanish character. From the volcanic scenery of Lanzarote and Tenerife to the golden beaches and quieter anchorages of Fuerteventura and Gran Canaria, sailing in the Canary Islands offers warm-weather adventure, year-round sunshine and the freedom to explore this diverse Atlantic archipelago at your own pace.

  • Sailing season: year-round.
