Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in

Lobos Island is close to Fuerteventura, but reaching it by private catamaran gives you a far more personal day on the water than joining a large sightseeing boat. You cruise from Corralejo for four hours, with time for food, drinks, paddle boarding, snorkeling, and simply enjoying the sea.

I like the small private group, limited to your family or friends, and the fact that the price covers equipment and refreshments. The main consideration is that you must bring your own towel and suncream, and the exact food menu is not stated, so ask ahead if you have dietary needs.

Key points at a glance

  • Private boat for up to 10 people: You share the catamaran only with your own group.

  • Morning or afternoon departure: Choose the time that best fits your day in Corralejo.
  • Homemade food and drinks: Freshly prepared food, sangria, and beer have been part of the onboard service.
  • Simple port meeting point: Meet at Bar Restaurant La Lonja, beside the yellow fish at Corralejo harbor.

A private route from Corralejo to Lobos

Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in - A private route from Corralejo to Lobos

The trip begins at the meeting point by Bar Restaurant La Lonja in Corralejo harbor. Look for the yellow fish in front of the restaurant. That is the practical detail to save on your phone, since a port can have several piers and meeting areas.

From there, you board the private catamaran and set out toward Lobos Island Natural Park. The crossing is part of the experience, not just a transfer. You have room to settle in, watch the coast recede, and get your bearings before the water activities begin.

The boat is reserved for your party, up to 10 people. That makes a big difference if your group includes children, older family members, or friends who want a quieter outing. You are not adapting your day to a large crowd, and the crew can keep the pace relaxed.

The total time is four hours. That is long enough to combine a boat ride, a meal, and water activities without turning the day into a full-day commitment. It also means you should not expect an extended tour of every part of Lobos. This is a compact sea outing focused on enjoying the boat and the water.

What makes Lobos worth seeing from the water

Lobos is a protected natural park near Fuerteventura. Its appeal here is the setting around the island rather than a long land excursion. From the catamaran, you experience the open water and the coast without needing to plan a separate island visit.

The route is especially appealing if you want a short break from Fuerteventura’s beaches and resort areas. You get a change of view, a boat-based perspective, and a chance to spend time outdoors with your own group.

The available information does not give a fixed list of anchor points or named swimming spots. That matters because sea conditions can shape the exact route and activity location. Think of this as a flexible catamaran outing around Lobos, not a tightly scripted sightseeing circuit with a published stop-by-stop plan.

A useful question to ask before departure is how much time will be set aside for snorkeling, paddle boarding, and sailing. The trip includes all three elements in some form, but no exact timetable is provided.

Paddle boards, snorkeling, and time in the sea

Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in - Paddle boards, snorkeling, and time in the sea

The water activities are central to the appeal. Paddle boards and snorkeling equipment are included, so you can try them without renting gear separately in Corralejo.

If you are comfortable on a paddle board, this gives you a gentle way to move away from the catamaran and view the coast from water level. If you are new to paddle boarding, you can treat it as a short tryout rather than a serious sporting session. The private format is useful here because your group can share the experience at its own pace.

Snorkeling offers a quieter change of rhythm. Instead of staying on deck for the full four hours, you can get into the water and look below the surface. The details of marine life, visibility, and water temperature are not guaranteed, so bring realistic expectations. This is a recreational snorkeling stop, not a specialist wildlife excursion.

The crew provides the equipment, but towels and suncream are not included. Bring both. A towel is useful after swimming, while suncream matters even on a cloudy day because the sea reflects light and the catamaran offers limited shade information.

You should also pack a swimsuit and any personal items you need for four hours. Keep valuables to a minimum. The supplied details do not promise lockers or dry storage, so a small water-resistant bag is sensible if you have one.

Food, drinks, and the feel onboard

Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in - Food, drinks, and the feel onboard

Food and drinks are included in the price, which makes this more than a simple boat rental. The meal helps break up the outing and means you do not need to arrange lunch separately during the four-hour period.

The onboard food has been described as homemade and freshly cooked. One account also describes a meal that the group prepared themselves, so the exact arrangement may vary. It is safest to confirm whether the crew cooks the food for your departure or involves the group in preparation.

Fresh sangria and beer have also been served, along with other drinks. Since the exact beverage list is not supplied, ask what is included when you book, especially if you prefer soft drinks or do not drink alcohol.

I like the social side of eating on a private boat. A meal gives your group a natural pause after the water activities, and it can be a pleasant way to spend time together without having to leave the catamaran. The food is part of the value, but it should not be treated as a restaurant meal with a published menu and multiple choices.

If anyone in your group has allergies, follows a vegetarian or vegan diet, or needs a child-friendly meal, contact the provider before the day. The experience includes food, but dietary arrangements are not explained in the supplied information.

Morning or afternoon: choosing the better departure

You can choose a morning or afternoon trip. That flexibility is useful because the four-hour outing can fit around a beach day, a meal in Corralejo, or other plans on Fuerteventura.

The morning departure is the safer choice if you want the rest of your day free. You can take the catamaran first, then return to Corralejo with time left for lunch or an evening plan.

The afternoon departure may suit you better if you prefer a slower start. It also gives you a clear block of time later in the day for the sea. Since no sunset schedule is stated, do not book the afternoon option specifically for sunset views unless the provider confirms the timing.

Your choice should also depend on your group. Families with young children may find the morning easier, while a group of friends may prefer the afternoon. The private booking lets you avoid the fixed pace of a large shared cruise, but the departure time itself remains set by the available booking slot.

Why the private format matters

The price is $647 per group of up to 10 people. If you fill all 10 places, that works out to about $64.70 per person. For eight people, the rough cost is $80.88 each, and for smaller groups the per-person price rises quickly.

That makes the experience best value for a full family or friend group. A private catamaran, food, drinks, paddle boards, snorkeling equipment, and four hours on the water can be a practical package when divided among several people.

For two or three people, the price may feel high compared with a shared boat trip. You are paying for privacy and control, not simply for transport to Lobos. If you care about having the boat to yourselves, the cost can make sense. If your priority is the lowest possible price, compare it with a shared cruise before booking.

The private setting also helps with group comfort. You can talk easily, decide who wants to paddle board, and avoid feeling that everyone has to join every activity. A person who prefers to stay onboard can do so while others use the equipment.

That said, private does not mean completely independent. The crew still manages the boat, the route, and the timing. You should expect a guided sea outing rather than a bareboat rental.

The crew and the onboard atmosphere

Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in - The crew and the onboard atmosphere

The crew has received strong praise for being friendly and helpful. The service has been described as relaxed, with an attentive skipper and a clean boat. Those details matter because four hours on a boat can feel very different depending on the crew’s manner.

You may also hear some background about Lobos and the surrounding islands. This adds context to the trip without turning it into a formal history tour. The supplied information does not provide the crew’s names, so I cannot give you a named guide to request.

The activity is offered in English, Spanish, Italian, French, and German. That is useful for mixed-language groups and gives you a better chance of understanding the safety instructions and local information.

The relaxed tone seems to be one of the strongest reasons to choose this outing. It is not presented as a high-speed adventure or a packed sightseeing schedule. You get a boat, a protected island setting, food, and time to decide how active you want to be.

Who will enjoy this catamaran trip most

This is a good fit for families, couples traveling with friends, and groups celebrating a special occasion. The private setup gives everyone more room to relax, and the mix of swimming equipment and food works for different ages and energy levels.

It also suits a group that wants a simple all-in-one sea day. You do not need to rent paddle boards, find snorkeling gear, or arrange a separate meal. The meeting point is in Corralejo, and the boat returns there when the activity ends.

You may prefer another type of outing if you want a long hike on Lobos, a detailed naturalist tour, or an exact list of snorkeling locations. Those details are not part of the stated program.

It is also less suitable if no one in your group wants to spend time on a boat or in the water. The catamaran ride is the main event, and the activities are designed to be enjoyed from the sea.

Practical details before you book

The activity starts and ends at the same meeting point, Bar Restaurant La Lonja at Corralejo harbor. You should arrive with enough time to find the yellow fish landmark and meet the crew without rushing.

Bring a towel, suncream, swimwear, and any medication or personal necessities you may need for four hours. Towels and suncream are specifically excluded.

Food and drinks are included, as are paddle boards and snorkeling equipment. The exact menu, drink selection, activity schedule, and route are not specified, so contact the provider if those details affect your decision.

You can reserve now and pay later, which helps if your Fuerteventura plans are still shifting. Cancellation is available without charge up to 24 hours before departure for a full refund.

The activity is offered in English, Spanish, Italian, French, and German. The boat returns to the original meeting point, so you do not need to arrange a separate return transfer.

Should you book the Lobos catamaran?

Fuerteventura: PRIVATE Catamaran All Inclusive Lobos in - Should you book the Lobos catamaran?

Book this if you have a group of several people and value privacy, a relaxed pace, and a package that combines food with water activities. The strongest reasons are the private boat, the homemade-style meal, the friendly service, and the fact that paddle boards and snorkeling gear are already included.

The $647 price makes the most sense when shared among eight to 10 people. For a small group, compare the cost with shared cruises. Also ask about the meal, dietary requests, and the planned balance between sailing, swimming, snorkeling, and paddle boarding.

Bring your own towel and suncream, meet at the yellow fish by La Lonja, and treat the route as a flexible four-hour outing rather than a detailed island tour. If that sounds like your kind of day, this is a comfortable and sociable way to see Lobos from the water.
