Additionally, setting sail with a skipper will make your voyage even more comfortable! The skipper will take care of all the technical aspects of sailing, so all you need to do is sit back and relax.

If you would like to take charge of your boat charter in Barcelona, then bareboat charters are the way to go. Enjoy a bareboat charter if you have a license and set sail at your own pace. You need a valid boating license to enjoy a boat this way so check with the boat owner beforehand to see that your license is valid.

When is the best time of year to rent a boat?

The ideal time to visit and rent a boat in Barcelona is largely influenced by personal preferences and interests. However, to assist you in planning your trip, it's beneficial to consider the high season and the months just outside of it. Barcelona's high season falls between June and August when the city experiences its peak tourist influx. During this time, the weather is warm and sunny, creating perfect conditions for boat rentals and engaging in water activities. Average temperatures range from the mid-70s°F to the mid-80s°F, providing a delightful experience on the water.

For those seeking a more relaxed atmosphere with slightly cooler temperatures, the months of May and September are fantastic options. During these months just outside of the high season, Barcelona enjoys pleasant weather for boating enthusiasts. Average temperatures range from the mid-60s°F to the low 70s°F, offering comfortable conditions for sailing and exploring the stunning coastline. Choosing to visit during this period allows for a quieter ambiance while still enjoying the beauty of Barcelona's coastal landscapes and attractions.

# 1 IN CATAMARAN TOURS THROUGH BARCELONA'S COAST

It was a great trip along the coast with all the sights and we had a wonderful, relaxing time on board.

It’s been a great experience! The trip and specially the crew were very nice and helpful, it’s like if u were among friends. I only can recommend it to everyone.

We booked Catamaran Orsom for a Saturday evening and it was beautiful. We took our own prossecco and watched the sun set to the sound of Jazz. We were also given blankets and everyone was very friendly. I would highly recommend.

Great value for money, amazing views of the city. Staff very friendly jazz player very entertaining.

I took my son, daughter and hubby on this ride, we enjoyed Jazz music whilst watching the waves. The children were made to feel extra special by the captain when he invited them to Sail the boat. I definitely recommend this excursion and certainly worth the money!

The ride was smooth and relaxing and there is plenty of space on board to hang out with friends and drink. Nice music as well. The price is reasonable and staff were very friendly.

Yacht Charter Barcelona

The coast of Barcelona provides great opportunities for travel. Depending on the sea and wind conditions, you can move north towards the Costa del Maresme. Or, heading south towards Garraf, visit the charming town of Sitges. For these itineraries, it is worth booking a day charter yacht in Barcelona for the whole day or for the weekend, depending on the type of boat you choose.

For a short charter of 2-4 hours, the route is optimal, allowing you to see all the splendor of Barcelona from the sea. This is a completely different city, completely different from the one that meets tourists during walking and bus tours.

• private - wedding on board, birthday, bachelorette party, anniversary, romantic dinner, bachelor party, sunset or dawn meeting, date on a yacht, yoga classes;
• corporate - presentation of a product or a service, invitation for customers and suppliers, confidential business meeting, conference, training, seminar, team building, employee incentives.

This was AMAZING, definitely worth the money. We did a 10 person 3-hour ride on the Azimut 46, the boat was awesome and Dani was an amazing Skipper. Plenty of drinks were provided and we even docked for an hour to swim. I highly recommend doing this experience.

Great trip. Everyone was more than happy. Excellent service from booking until the end. Our contact person and the captain was great and the boat was in excellent shape. Happy to recommend!

Spent an incredible day out with friends, we had a great time sipping on drinks and enjoying the Mediterranean sea. Everything was enjoyable and fun. The boat was clean and the crew was very nice and knowledgeable. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend it!

Recently went on the Azimut 46 from port olympic and had the best time ever. Couldn't have asked for a better day it was calm waters and a beautiful temperature. Not to mention the beers and cava were flowing after our swim in the beautiful med. An experience everyone should have when going to barcelona.

Yacht & Catamaran Charter in Barcelona, Spain

We can help you find the perfect yacht or catamaran to sail from Barcelona!

Sailing from Barcelona

Barcelona is a city which is famous for football, the arts and las ramblas market – but it’s also a fantastic place to sail - the wonderful Catalan coastline is best explored by your own private yacht or catamaran. People have been sailing here for centuries, so you’ll find castles, palaces, cathedrals, small fishing villages, as well as fine beaches and tourist attractions – and of course, majestic Barcelona.

On a multi-week charter, you could hop over to the Balearic islands, but if you’ve only got a week then there’s already an agonising choice of sailing south to historic Tarragona, once the capital of the Roman empire, or north to the Roses and the castles and forts built for keeping the French and Italians (amongst others) at bay. We can help you find and book your ideal yacht or catamaran, with one of our trusted Charter Partners - just get in touch or search in the pink box with live prices and availability !  

 SAILING RATING:  Beginner - the Mediterranean offers a largely sheltered cruising ground, which makes it suitable even for beginners to sail here. You’ll need an RYA Day Skipper qualification (or equivalent) to sail here.

 MUST-SEE:  Check out our full suggested itinerary below. The main highlights are historic Tarragona , exuberant Sitges , and, of course, Barcelona .

 WHAT WE CAN OFFER:  We have a great range of yachts and catamarans available for charter from our trusted Charter Partners, all available bareboat or Skippered. We can also arrange a Hostess, Personal Chef and other crew.

 GETTING THERE:  The closest airport is El Prat Barcelona international airport, which is a 20 to 25 minute drive from the marina, but you could also land at Girona (1h11 drive away) or Reus airports (1h35).

 WHY BOOK WITH US?  We only work with the very best professional charter operators , who we have met, know, and trust to give you the same outstanding customer service as you'll get from PlainSailing.com.  

 WHAT NEXT?  Use the pink box to search for yachts or catamarans with LIVE pricing & availability - if you have any other questions or requests, get in touch via Live Chat, the Contact Form , or by phone.

Nestled in the heart of the popular Catalan coast, Barcelona is a brilliant place to sail from - with castles and great cathedrals contrasted by small fishing villages, and, of course, the fine beaches, waterparks and other attractions that draw millions of tourists to this coastline each year. There’s virtually guaranteed sunshine, largely reliable winds, very friendly locals and some of the finest food on the planet – the more Tapas you try, the more you’ll get hooked!

It’s a six-day itinerary because you normally won’t get access to the boat until Saturday afternoon, and after spending time getting provisions in and getting familiar with the boat, you’ll likely only be able to set sail on Sunday morning. The boat also needs to be back in Barcelona on Friday evening (but you can stay on-board overnight and then check-out and disembark on Saturday morning) – so it’s a six day tour.  

Nose out of the marina and then we’re heading South – we’re sailing past Barcelona city centre, so don’t head too far out to sea if you want a good view of Las Ramblas, then we’re sailing onwards South, reaching across the prevailing summer northerly winds to the Castelldefells. It’s possible to do it in one tack, but as it’s the first day, you may as well get everyone well versed in trimming the sail.

As the name suggests, there’s a castle on the highest point here which dates back over a millennium (and it was built on the site of an even older Roman castle), which helped to defend Catalonia from Arab and Barbary invaders, amongst others. More recently, they built an ‘Olympic canal’ here to host the rowing events of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, and it is now best known for the 5km of gorgeous sandy beach (which you will sail past) and for being the home of the great and good of Barcelona - including Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez – so watch out for them if you amble around town! There’s a great range of shops, bars and restaurants, plus beaches and castles to explore – enjoy!  

Today’s destination is Segur de Calafell, a suburb of the pretty town of Calafell, which is another town with a splendid beach, an ancient castle and that is reasonably popular with tourists. As well as being one of the best beaches in Spain, this beach claims to be good for you on health grounds because the local sand means that there is five-times as much iodine in the sea-water here than normal.

But there’s also more high-brow attractions on offer - the Ciutadella Iberica is a fascinating excavation of the village that was here in 600 BC (and just a short walk from the marina), and the Casa Barral museum celebrates the life works of Carlos Barral, who was, as I’m sure you already knew, one of Spain’s finest poets.  

The Romans helped transform ‘‘Tarraco’ (as they called it) into the wealthiest and most opulent city in Spain, and there was a time when Caesar Augustus himself used to come here for winter, bringing the might and powers of the empire with him. Similar to Rome, the whole town is like a giant museum, with fine buildings and churches in every direction around the old town – so it is worth a stroll around.

If all of the above have you rolling your eyes, then don’t worry, because Tarragona also has something for you – notably, Spain’s biggest theme park, PortAventura, is located here (alongside Ferrari-land and the PortAventura Aquatic park), and there’s obviously also plenty of great beaches to lay down on.  

Torredembarra is largely overlooked by tourists because it is so close to Tarragona, but it has the same Roman history, charming cobbled streets and an old town with magnificent architecture - it would be lauded if it was anywhere else in the world. There’s also fantastic beaches, and Torredembarra is one of the world’s top kite-surfing destinations.

And, of course, there is the tallest lighthouse in Catalonia, which is also the newest lighthouse in Spain (it went live on January 1st 2000), which has a splendid viewing platform at the top of it (if you can manage the 217 steps).  

But that’s not all – their local dishes of xato (seafood salad) and ‘Sitges-style paella’ have been exported across Spain and are certainly worth sampling. There’s the locally grown Malvasia wine, or, if you prefer something stronger, Sitges is the birthplace of a certain Mr Bacardi who emigrated to Cuba in 1830 and set up a massive rum empire – Sitges is proud enough of him to give him his own museum.

You can also go for a hike on the mountainous Garraf Massif, gape in wonder at the magnificent Church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla (which you should also be able to see from the sea), or hit the beach – incidentally, three of the 17 beaches here are nudist beaches.  

You’ll pass the Garraf massif, Castelldefels, Barcelona airport and then Barcelona city centre and then we’re heading back into the marina. Don’t forget you’ll need to fill up the fuel tanks on your way back into the marina, before mooring the boat up one last time. You can stay on her overnight before disembarking tomorrow morning. If you got the crew and the boat around safely, then well done skipper, and you have earned your ‘Sailing in Spain’ badge.

If you haven’t explored Barcelona itself yet, then it really is a wonderful city, which is why over 20 million tourists head here each year. There’s the Sagrada Familia cathedral, the Olympic parks, or a cable car (Teleferic) which goes across the bay, giving outstanding views of the city. You simply have to wander down Las Ramblas, and there’s plenty of trendy bars to check out in the ‘Gothic quarter’, which is the near-side of the city-centre to the marina.

Hopefully you have all enjoyed the trip, and the crew have been a joy to be around. As you’re reminiscing about this voyage over some final tapas, maybe you’ll already be thinking about where to sail next year - come and visit us at PlainSailing.com once you have a plan! Have a safe trip home, and hopefully see you online soon! :)  

Sailing Conditions

Winds tend to be stronger during spring and autumn, when they tend to arrive from the South or South-west, but as the summer kicks in, the winds swing around so that the prevailing summer winds come from the North, before rushing their way East across the Mediterranean to hit sails on boats in Turkey.

This makes sailing at the tail-ends of the season a little more exciting, though thankfully it is rare for the wind to be too fierce. 

In winter, winds are a bit more unpredictable, and you could be hit by cold winds rolling down from the Pyrenees, or warm winds from Northern Africa – though most weather systems tend to pass over in a few days, and the forecasting in the Med is usually very reliable so you shouldn't be taken by surprise!

Marina Details - Port Olimpic, Barcelona

Barcelona is a wonderful city, and the ideal place to spend a day or two at the start or end of the holiday - if you're looking for places to stay on land in the area, then we recommend Hotel Santa Marta , which is ideally located between the marina and Las Ramblas.

Port Olimpic hosted the sailing events for the 1992 Olympics. After years of being unloved, it was brought back under the control of the Local Government and has since been refurbished into a modern and comfortable marina, next to Barceloneta beach, and within a short walk of the city centre.
