About this experience

Why choose "Sailing the Strait"? 360° Panoramic Views (Better than a Catamaran): On catamarans and motor boats, the structure forces you to walk to the bow (front) to see the view. Our unique monohull design features a rear seating and dining area with unobstructed 360-degree views. You can eat, drink, and socialize without ever losing sight of the coast or the dolphins. There are only two charter yachts of this specific type in the entire Port of Estepona. Be the Captain for a Day: You are not just a passenger. If you wish, you can take the helm, steer the yacht, and learn traditional sailing maneuvers. No experience required! Local Network Advantage: As local skippers, we coordinate via a private network to share live dolphin sightings, maximizing your chances of wildlife encounters.

What to expect

Experience Authentic Private Sailing in EsteponaEscape the rushed 2-hour tourist boat trips. We offer a unique 4-hour private sailing experience (double the time of standard charters) to truly enjoy the Costa del Sol at your own pace. Guided by your local captain, our philosophy centers on traditional seamanship: if there is wind, we turn off the engine and travel under sail. How the sea shapes your day: On windy days: Feel the thrill of true wind-powered sailing and connect with nature. On calm days: A flat, wave-free sea creates the absolute perfect conditions for spotting local dolphins, sea turtles, and sunfish.Our Packages:Standard Private Charter (4 Hours): The perfect duration to sail towards Marbella or Sotogrande, spot dolphins near Gibraltar, and anchor for a swim. Romantic Sunset Cruise (2 Hours): A magical late-afternoon sail to watch the horizon turn violet and burnt orange while gliding near-silently across the water. Premium Spanish Tapas Included: We don't serve basic industrial snacks. Enjoy an authentic Spanish aperitif featuring local cheeses, cured ham (jamón), traditional tortilla, and bread, paired with an open bar of white wine, cava, beer, and soft drinks.
