    Why choose the Costa Brava for boat rental

    Coves and beaches inaccessible by land

    The Costa Brava hides dozens of coves that can only be visited by boat. From Blanes, in just 15-45 minutes you will reach pristine beaches with turquoise waters without the crowds of the main beaches. Cala Brava, Cala Sant Francesc, Sa Forcanera and many more await.

    Calm, sheltered waters

    The orientation of the coast and its numerous bays create ideal conditions for sailing, even for beginners. The waters are calm and crystal-clear, perfect for swimming, snorkelling or simply enjoying the sunshine on board.

    Accessible from Barcelona and Girona

    Our home port in Blanes is just 70 minutes from Barcelona and 35 minutes from Girona by motorway. Free parking next to the port. The perfect getaway for a full or half day of nautical adventure.

    For all skill levels

    Whether you have never sailed before or you are an experienced skipper, we have the perfect boat for you. 4 licence-free boats for beginners and powerful engine vessels for those who want to explore further. Training included with every rental.

    Costa Brava Navigation Guide

    Facil

    Blanes - Lloret de Mar: 30 min, easy, no licence

    One of the most popular routes on the Costa Brava. Heading north from the Port of Blanes, we skirt cliffs and hidden coves until we reach the lively beaches of Lloret. Suitable for all levels, with sheltered waters and the coast always in sight. Perfect for a half-day trip with a stop at Cala Treumal.

    Facil

    Blanes - Cala Brava: 15 min, easy, no licence

    The perfect quick getaway for families and beginners. Just 15 minutes separate the Port of Blanes from this pristine cove with crystal-clear waters, ideal for snorkelling and relaxation. Easy anchoring on sand, sheltered from the wind. Our recommendation for first-time boating experiences.

    Media

    1

    Cala Brava

    A hidden gem just 15 minutes by boat from Blanes. This pristine cove offers intense turquoise waters and a spectacular seabed for snorkelling. Surrounded by pine-covered cliffs, it is one of the few corners of the Costa Brava that retains its wild, natural state. Easy anchoring on sand at shallow depth.

    2

    Cala Sant Francesc

    Situated between Blanes and Lloret de Mar, this fine-sand cove with transparent waters is perfect for families. Its sandy bottom allows comfortable anchoring close to shore. Protected from waves by rock formations, it offers unbeatable conditions for swimming and snorkelling with children. A 14th-century monastery crowns the hill above the cove.

    3

    Cala Treumal

    On the border between Blanes and Lloret de Mar, Cala Treumal combines subtropical vegetation with crystal-clear Mediterranean waters. The botanical gardens of Pinya de Rosa descend to the beach, creating a unique landscape. Perfect for a stop between Blanes and Lloret on a coastal route. Anchoring zone marked with eco-friendly buoys.

    Cala Boadella

    Considered the most beautiful cove in Lloret de Mar, Boadella is a golden-sand beach sheltered by wooded cliffs. Accessible only by a steep path or by boat, guaranteeing tranquillity even in the height of August. Calm waters, clean sand and a natural setting reminiscent of Sardinia's beaches. Free anchoring zone respecting swimmers.

    Platja de Sa Palomera

    The most iconic beach in Blanes, recognised by the great rock that marks the official start of the Costa Brava. With full services and a privileged orientation, it offers spectacular sunsets over the sea. From the boat you will enjoy a unique perspective of the Sa Palomera rock and the Blanes seafront promenade. Anchoring zone at a distance from shore.
