Choosing to sail the Mediterranean is a sure-fire winner. You hold the key to a truly special holiday in your hands. When you decide to set sail on a sailing trip across this sea that is so dear to us, you’re embarking on an adventure.
Autumn and spring: The Catalan coast
In spring and autumn, there’s a real desire to make the most of the good weather, the longer days and the abundance of marine life along our coastline. It’s the ideal time to go sailing near Barcelona. That’s why we’re organising day trips and weekend sailing trips along the Catalan coast. We’ll set off from the port of Premià de Mar (20–25 minutes by train from Barcelona).
Sailing along the Maresme coast offers us peace and quiet, close yet far removed from the hustle and bustle of the big city, as well as a wealth of wildlife in the area. The idea is always to go sailing depending on the wind.
Summer: Menorca and the Balearic Islands
A week sailing around Menorca is the perfect holiday plan, allowing you to enjoy the sea, Menorca’s coves by boat, and the island in a different way. We set sail from Mahón on Saturdays at 11am and return the following Friday at 1pm.
For a week-long sailing trip around Menorca, we plan the route based on the weather, always seeking out the sheltered parts of the island so we can anchor safely and enjoy the trip at a leisurely pace. The idea is to sail and enjoy Menorca’s coves to relax, go snorkelling, try paddleboarding or go for walks on land – an ideal way to experience a different kind of holiday.
These are participatory sailing trips, so if you’re looking for a boat trip around Menorca, this is the perfect option for enjoying nature.

Why is sailing in the Mediterranean so captivating?
Sailing in the Mediterranean is one of the most promising sailing destinations. Its shores have been the cradle of great civilisations, as well as the territory of mighty empires. In the Mediterranean landscape, we still find traces of past cultures, which are also part of our own. The waters that bathe the Mediterranean basin are unique for their clarity, with shades ranging from cobalt blue to turquoise. These very waters are home to a rich biodiversity, including species such as dolphins, whales and sea turtles. The fact that it is a sea surrounded by three continents, with a close connection to the ocean, gives it certain advantages. One of its distinctive features is that it experiences hardly any fluctuations in sea level.
Thanks to these characteristics, we enjoy a mild climate, with warm, dry summers.
From the deck of a sailing boat, we have the audacity to reach places reserved for the few. From the shore, the scents of tamarisk, thyme and pine reach us, along with the daytime chorus of cicadas. We live in an age where the most remote corners of the world seem within reach. Yet, something as seemingly simple as arriving at a coast by sea becomes a unique experience.
