About this tour
A four-hour motor yacht cruise along Granada's Costa Tropical, departing from the marina with welcome drinks and heading west toward La Herradura bay. You'll anchor at the secluded natural beach of La Cantarrijan for swimming, snorkelling, and lunch, with optional exploration of old smugglers' caves by kayak or paddleboard. The skipper shares local maritime history—including a 16th-century shipwreck site and ancient coastal watchtowers—whilst drinks and meals flow throughout.

What to expect
Board at the Granada marina for a safety briefing, then settle in with your first drink as the yacht motors out into the bay. The skipper navigates around headlands and points out historical landmarks—shipwreck coordinates, defensive towers—whilst you relax on deck. After ninety minutes, the anchor drops at La Cantarrijan. Spend the next couple of hours swimming in clear water, strapping on snorkelling gear to explore the shallows, or paddling a kayak toward the cliff-face caves. Between water time, a proper lunch arrives on deck. The return journey is equally unhurried, drinks in hand.
