Our most-loved trip. Sail out past Puerto Banús and meet the dolphins that live off this coast. Swim stop and paddle boards in summer.
Marbella, under sail
Sailing experiences in Marbella, from Puerto Banús.

★4.9 on Google·Nearly 3,000 reviews across GetYourGuide, Viator & AirbnbDepartures from Puerto Banús, Pantalán 4
We sail this coast every day. Sailing yachts and a catamaran, with skippers who know where the dolphins feed and where the light lands at sunset.
Sail, not motor
When the wind blows in the right direction, the engines are turned off and the boat glides across the sea.
A local skipper aboard
Someone who has worked in this area of the coast for years, not a hired hand.
Guests, not tickets
Small numbers on every trip, with room to actually sit, eat and talk.
