Boat rental in Costa Brava: sailboats, catamarans and yachts
Want a different kind of getaway? Boat rental in Costa Brava is the easiest way to discover coves and fishing villages without rushing. You can go out for a few hours, spend the full day, or set up a multi-day trip.
We work with bases such as Blanes, Palamós and L'Estartit. That way you can choose the port that fits you best. From there, we design a realistic route based on sea conditions, wind and your plan: relaxation, swimming, sailing or celebration.
Choose a boat based on your plan
On the Costa Brava there is no single “perfect boat” for everything. There is the boat that fits you. So before booking, think about what you want to do on board.
- Sailboat: calm sailing, coves and anchorages. Ideal for couples, families and chill plans.
- Catamaran: more space and stability. Top choice for groups, kids and anyone who prioritizes comfort.
- Motorboat: more speed to move quickly between coves and make the most of the day.
- Yacht: premium experience, comfort and an “event” feel. Perfect for celebrations.
- RIB's: inflatable and semi-rigid, RIB's boats are practical and agile, very good for short plans and nearby coastline.
Cove route ideas (without “checklist tourism”)
The best part of this coast is that you can improvise. Even so, a basic guide helps a lot. If you want inspiration, in our blog you have a selection of recommended Costa Brava coves and a real story of a sailing trip to Cap de Creus.
Prefer something straightforward? Tell us how many days you have, how many people you are, and your preferred outing style. We'll suggest an itinerary with room to adapt, plus a plan B in case the weather changes.
Quick tips before boarding
- Dress in layers: late afternoons are often cooler.
- Sunscreen and sunglasses: water reflection can be deceptive.
- Soft bag: easier to store than a hard suitcase.
- If you get seasick: let us know in advance and eat light.
- Check the marine forecast and avoid pushing it with strong winds.
To check the official forecast, you can use AEMET's marine forecast for Costa Brava.
We make sure you leave with a clear plan. We advise you according to date and departure port. Blanes, Palamós and L'Estartit are common departure points.

Why sail on the Costa Brava
The area combines coves, fishing villages and stretches of open sea over short distances. That lets you create very different plans on the same day. You can anchor to swim. Or you can sail longer and truly feel the sailboat.
There is also plenty of fleet variety. From sailboats for a calm getaway, to spacious catamarans for groups, or yachts if you want a premium plan. You choose the style. We turn it into a realistic proposal.
If your idea is an already organized group experience, you can also check group boat outings or ask for a recommendation based on group size.
