Corporate event planning in Barcelona: sailing regattas & yacht team building

If you’re looking for corporate event planning in Barcelona that feels fresh (and actually brings people together), a corporate sailing regatta or yacht team building is hard to beat: sea, challenge, laughs and real collaboration.

At BDA Sailing Experience we organise company events on a boat tailored to your goals—from a relaxed private sail to a competitive regatta with results and prize-giving. You set the objective, we handle the rest.

What’s the goal of a corporate sailing event?

Before choosing a date, it helps to be clear on what you want to achieve. Sailing naturally trains skills that translate to work: communication, leadership, coordination and fast decision-making.

Nautical team building and team cohesion

On a regatta, each crew needs clear roles (helm, trimming, bow, tactics…). That structure makes people listen, organise themselves and improve teamwork on the spot.

Incentive days and easy networking

Want something more social? We can design a corporate incentive sail with music, snacks or catering, swim stops and a more relaxed pace—perfect to celebrate milestones or welcome new teams.

Types of corporate events on yachts

Corporate sailing regatta in Barcelona

The classic format for companies: several boats, a buoy course, sailing basics, and a “race-style” start. Depending on the group, we can run one or multiple races.

How the regatta works

Private sailing trip for groups

Ideal for a calmer corporate vibe: we sail along Barcelona’s coastline, toast on board and adapt the pace to your agenda.

What’s usually included

How we organise your company event step by step

1) Define the format and objectives

Is it about cohesion, motivation, leadership—or simply an unforgettable day? Based on that, we propose the best format: regatta, private sail, incentive day or a mix with shore activities.

2) Planning: date, start time and duration

In Barcelona, common formats range from 3 hours to half-day or full-day experiences. Groups can go from 10 to 300+ people depending on the available fleet. We match the plan to your schedule and headcount.

3) Logistics and extras

Want the event to feel “big”? We can add flags, team shirts, a podium and prize-giving. We can also handle catering, drinks, photographers and on-shore spaces if needed.

Fleet and departure point in Barcelona

Yachts with skippers for groups

The number and type of boats depends on your group size: sporty race boats or comfortable cruisers. Always with skippers and professional coordination.

Where do we board?

We usually depart from Port Olímpic. If you need another marina (Port Vell, Badalona, Sitges, etc.), just tell us and we’ll plan it.

FAQ: corporate events on a yacht

Do we need sailing experience?

No. It’s designed for beginners. The skipper guides manoeuvres and the crew learns by doing.

What if the weather is bad?

Safety comes first. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll propose a reschedule or alternatives that fit the sea state.

Can we customise it with our brand?

Yes—branding on flags, a photo wall, giveaways, team shirts and pre-event comms to build excitement.
