The catamaran eases out of the Port of Valencia and the bay opens like a sheet of sunlit metal—the wind nudges the net where people lie back, the resident DJ spins a beat and the Med dares you to join the dance. For three hours the shoreline slides by: modern marina architecture, golden sand at Playa de las Arenas, and the pale blue of open water punctuated by swimmers and seabirds.

The catamaran eases out of the Port of Valencia and the bay opens like a sheet of sunlit metal—the wind nudges the net where people lie back, the resident DJ spins a beat and the Med dares you to join the dance. For three hours the shoreline slides by: modern marina architecture, golden sand at Playa de las Arenas, and the pale blue of open water punctuated by swimmers and seabirds.
Valencia is the birthplace of paella, and the lunch served aboard ties the meal to place: salad, a shared paella and seasonal fruit with a drink. The coastline here is a stretch of Mediterranean shelf built on limestone and ancient sands, shaped by calm currents that bring occasional patches of Posidonia seagrass—habitat for fish and, on a lucky day, a passing dolphin.
Local life mixes maritime tradition with beach culture: fishermen’s markets, seafood bars, and the promenade cafés of Malvarrosa a short walk away. The cruise ends with a planned stop ashore—350 meters from the landing point—for a cocktail and tapa on Playa de las Arenas’ waterfront terrace.
Practicalities: this is a social, short-duration catamaran trip (approx. 240 minutes). Minimum age is 18; tickets are sent before departure and the operator enforces a no-cooler policy. Wear a swimsuit and quick-dry layers, bring sunscreen and a towel, and pack a dry change for the pub (wet clothes and bare torsos aren’t allowed). Electric wheelchairs aren’t supported; lightweight wheelchairs are. Expect music, a swim stop in open water, and a convivial finish at the beach bar.
Minimum age is 18; participants should carry ID to verify age at boarding.
No—coolers and outside beverages are not allowed; beverages and lunch are provided as part of the cruise.
Yes—vegetarian options are available but must be requested at time of booking and pre-ordered at least 24 hours before departure.
