Sunset boat trip around Alicante bay
We set off in the afternoon towards Cabo de las Huertas and San Juan beach, stopping for a swim and to watch the sunset from the water, with Santa Bárbara Castle in the background. The perfect plan for couples, anniversaries or a special evening with friends.

A day on Tabarca island
We set sail at 10:00 for the only inhabited island in the Valencia region, right in the middle of a marine reserve. Anchor in turquoise water, go snorkelling, take time for lunch in the village – try the local caldero – and cruise gently back along the coast.
