Catamaran trip with other groups along the Costa Brava. Saturday.

The best part of this Costa Brava outing is the chance to combine a coastal boat ride with a relaxed afternoon party. You leave from Lloret de Mar Beach, cruise along the rocky shore, then anchor in a cove for swimming, floating mats, a trampoline, games, or time on the broad sun deck.

I like the generous meal, cooked aboard rather than brought in cold, and the simple drink plan: five beers, sangrias, or soft drinks, with water available as needed. I also like that you can choose your pace. Join the music and group games, or stretch out on the catamaran’s net and watch the coast slide past.

The main thing to consider is the shared-party format. This is not a quiet sailing trip or a private charter. You may be aboard with several celebration groups, and the full boat can hold up to 100 people. Bachelor and bachelorette groups are not accepted.

Key Points Before You Book

• Departure from Lloret de Mar Beach: Meet at Passeig d’Agustí Font, 2, in Lloret de Mar.
• A four-hour Saturday outing: The trip is designed as an afternoon of sailing, swimming, food, music, and social time.
• A cove stop near the rocks: You can swim, use floating mats and a trampoline, play games, or sunbathe.
• Barbecue lunch included: The crew prepares beef burgers and marinated chicken on board, with pasta, salad, and fruit salad.
• Five drinks included: Choose from beer, sangria, or soft drinks. Extra drinks may be available for €2 per glass.
• Shared party atmosphere: The boat can carry up to 100 people, and several groups may be celebrating together.

Setting Out From Lloret de Mar Beach

The meeting point is Passeig d’Agustí Font, 2, right by Lloret de Mar Beach. The activity begins and ends at this same point, which keeps the day simple if you are staying in or near Lloret de Mar.

Private transportation is not included, so you need to arrange your own way to the beach. Build in time to find the meeting point, especially on a Saturday when Lloret can feel busy. The precise departure details are important because this is a timed boat activity, not a flexible beach rental.

Once aboard, you’ll meet the crew and settle into a large catamaran. The size matters. You get more room to move around than on a small sailing boat, including a front net for sunbathing and a central area with some cover. That gives you a few ways to spend the afternoon instead of keeping everyone in one tight seating area.

This is a social trip from the start. You’ll share the boat with other groups, including people marking birthdays, anniversaries, family occasions, or work celebrations. The format works best if you enjoy a friendly crowd and do not mind music playing during the ride.

Following the Costa Brava Shoreline

The route takes you along the Costa Brava coast, where rocky coves and small inlets create the scenery. The supplied details do not give a fixed list of coves or promise a particular beach stop, since the captain chooses the anchorage. That flexibility can be useful because the crew can respond to local conditions and the day’s weather.

The boat ride itself is part of the attraction. You can sit back with a drink, look toward the shore, and enjoy the view without having to plan separate stops along the coast. You are not rushing from one landmark to another. The point is the combination of open water, music, food, and time with your group.

I would not book this expecting a guided coastal history lesson. No named guide or formal sightseeing commentary is provided. This is a leisure cruise, with the coast as a backdrop rather than a series of narrated historic sites.

The music is handled by a DJ, with volume kept within the crew’s limits. That wording is worth noting. The boat has a party feel, but the sound level remains subject to the crew and captain. If you need a quiet afternoon, this is probably the wrong boat. If you want a soundtrack while you eat, swim, and socialize, it fits better.

Anchoring in a Costa Brava Cove

At some point, the catamaran anchors near the rocks in one of the Costa Brava coves. This is the day’s main break from sailing. You can get into the water, use the floating mats, try the trampoline, take part in games, or stay dry on the solarium net.

The central bathtub has a covered section, giving you a little shelter from direct sun. The boat also has a large sunbathing area, so you can pick a spot based on your mood. I like this choice because not everyone in a group wants the same afternoon. One person can swim, another can sit with a soft drink, and someone else can join the games without leaving the boat.

The exact swimming conditions depend on the captain’s choice of cove and the weather. The information does not promise a particular water temperature, visibility, or snorkeling equipment. The focus is on a casual swim and floating time, not a dedicated underwater excursion.

Bring a practical attitude to this stop. The activity includes access to mats and a trampoline, but it does not describe a private beach landing. You remain connected to the catamaran, with the water and the boat’s facilities providing the main entertainment.

A Barbecue Prepared on Board

While the catamaran is anchored, the crew prepares lunch on board. The main barbecue includes beef burgers and marinated chicken cubes. Pasta with tomato sauce or salad is also provided, along with fruit salad.

This is a generous menu for a four-hour boat trip. You are not simply getting snacks with your drinks. The food is intended to function as lunch, and the portions are described as available to eat as much as you want. That adds real value to the $60.01 price, especially if you would otherwise need to buy a meal near the beach.

The chicken is described as halal and gluten-free. That gives some diners a useful option, though anyone with a serious allergy should still confirm details with the provider before booking. The menu is straightforward rather than gourmet. Expect familiar barbecue food designed to serve a large shared group, not a carefully plated restaurant meal.

The crew cooks during the anchored portion of the trip, which makes the meal feel tied to the boat experience. You get to eat while surrounded by the cove rather than stopping at a shore-side restaurant. The tradeoff is that a large group meal may be more casual and less quiet than dining on land.

Drinks, Music, and the Shared Party Mood

Five drinks are included per person. The choices are beers, sangrias, or soft drinks, and water is available at will. The captain may allow extra drinks to be purchased at the bar for €2 per glass.

Keep the number five in mind when comparing this activity with other boat parties. One stray comment describes unlimited drinks, but the stated inclusions specify five. I would plan on five included drinks and treat any additional bar service as a possible extra, not part of the basic price.

The drink setup works well for a group celebration because everyone gets a simple allowance without needing to keep track of a separate tab for every included beverage. It also makes the price easier to understand. You are paying for the cruise, lunch, entertainment, and a set number of drinks.

Music and group games help create the festive mood. You may find the atmosphere especially suited to a birthday, anniversary, family gathering, or company outing. The boat is also explicitly not for bachelor or bachelorette parties. Costumes, obscene objects, whistles, megaphones, speakers, and group singing are not accepted.

That rule is more than a small footnote. It tells you what kind of party the operator wants to run: lively, but controlled and suitable for a broad mix of groups. If your celebration depends on loud props or a private party setup, book something else.

What the $60.01 Price Buys You

At $60.01 per person, the value depends on how much use you make of the full package. You receive about four hours on the water, a barbecue lunch, fruit, five drinks, music, and access to the swimming and sunbathing features.

A similar afternoon assembled separately could involve a beach meal, paid drinks, and a boat rental or cruise ticket. Here, the main advantage is convenience. Once you reach the meeting point, the food, music, and water activities are organized together.

The price is less appealing if you mainly want a peaceful scenic cruise and plan to skip the food, drinks, games, and swimming. You are paying for the social format, not only for transportation along the coast.

The group size also affects the value. With a maximum of 100 people and other groups aboard, you are sharing the experience rather than receiving personal attention. The cost is reasonable for a communal celebration, but not comparable to the price of a private yacht or small-group sailing trip.

The activity is booked an average of 41 days ahead, which suggests that Saturday places can fill well before the date. If your group has a fixed celebration date, reserving early is sensible.

Who Will Enjoy This Catamaran Trip

I would recommend this outing to you if you want a relaxed social day with several activities in one package. It suits groups celebrating an anniversary, birthday, family occasion, or work event. It also works for people who like the idea of swimming and sunbathing but do not want to plan every detail themselves.

The large catamaran is useful for mixed groups. You can be active for part of the afternoon and then find a quieter place to sit. The covered central area gives you another option if you want a break from the sun.

You should think twice if your priority is a calm sailing experience. Music, games, and a shared crowd are central to the format. You should also skip it if you want a private boat, a fixed beach itinerary, or a formal guided tour of Costa Brava sights.

The activity says most people can participate, but it does not provide detailed accessibility information. If you need specific assistance boarding, moving around the boat, or entering the water, ask the provider before booking.

Weather, Timing, and Cancellation Details

The trip depends on good weather. If poor conditions cancel the outing, you can choose another date or receive a full refund. The same applies if the minimum number of participants is not reached.

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the local start time. Cancellations or changes made inside that 24-hour window are not accepted for a refund.

These rules make the trip fairly flexible when you plan ahead, but you should avoid treating the booking as completely weather-proof. Keep the day before and after your planned outing in mind if your schedule allows it.

The tour lasts approximately four hours and returns to the original meeting point. Since transportation is not included, you should also plan your own route back to your accommodation after the boat docks.

My Take: Book It for the Party, Not the Silence

Book this Costa Brava catamaran if you want a lively Saturday afternoon with scenery, swimming, barbecue food, drinks, and music in one organized outing. The included meal and five drinks give the $60.01 price a solid value, especially for a celebration group.

Skip it if you want a quiet sail, a private crew, or a detailed coastal tour. The shared boat can hold up to 100 people, and the social atmosphere is the main point. For the right group, that is the fun. For the wrong group, it may feel crowded and loud.
