About this tour
Set sail along Barcelona's coast for two and a half hours of swimming, paddling, and snorkelling in small-group company. Your crew navigates to sheltered coves and open-water spots where you'll float on inflatables, try stand-up paddle boards, and explore underwater life with snorkelling gear. Between dips, soak in views of Sagrada Familia, the W Hotel, and Montjuïc Castle while sipping coffee, cold drinks, and nibbling on snacks.

What to expect
You'll board a small sailing vessel and head out along the Barcelona waterfront. The crew chooses swimming locations based on conditions that day—usually calm bays where you can safely enter the water multiple times. Between swims, you'll have chances to try a paddle board or bounce on an inflatable. If snorkelling interests you, gear is ready to use; the crew points out what's visible below. Expect to spend roughly equal time sailing and in the water. The boat stays close to shore, so you'll see landmarks clearly.
Good to know
Bring a towel and reef-safe sunscreen. The boat operates in small groups, so book early in peak season. Public transport reaches the departure point; no hotel pickups offered. Drinks go to adults only (18+). Children can join; buoyancy aids are available.
