2-Hour Sailing Tour in Barcelona with Open Bar and Snacks
A small-group voyage along the Mediterranean with open sea swimming, complimentary drinks, and sweeping views of the Barcelona skyline.
A Barcelona sailing tour like this one offers a rare chance to see the city from the water, far from the crowds and noise, aboard a modern yacht with no more than eight fellow travelers beside you.
Departing from Port Olímpic, one of the most storied marinas in Spain and the original venue of the 1992 Olympic sailing competitions, this shared voyage takes you along the sun-drenched Catalan coastline with a professional skipper at the helm. The small group format keeps the experience personal and unhurried.
Along the route, the yacht pauses for an open-sea swim, giving passengers a genuine taste of the Mediterranean beyond the shoreline. Complimentary drinks and a light snack are served on board, and on favorable days, dolphins and whales have been spotted in these waters.
The journey provides unobstructed views of iconic landmarks visible from the sea, including the Barceloneta waterfront, the twin towers of Mapfre and Hotel Arts, Port Vell, and the distant silhouette of Tibidabo crowning the city hills.

The yacht sets sail from Port Olímpic, offering immediate views of Barceloneta Beach and the Port Vell waterfront as the vessel moves out into the Mediterranean. Frank Gehry's golden fish sculpture and the Gran Casino de Barcelona are visible from the water.
As the coastline unfolds, guests enjoy a complimentary drink and a light snack served on deck. The relaxed pace allows for conversation, photography, and simply taking in the sea air and city views.
The yacht anchors in the open Mediterranean for a swim break, away from the crowded urban beaches. This is also the section of the route where dolphin and whale sightings have been reported on favorable days.
The skipper navigates back along the coast as passengers enjoy the final views of the Barcelona skyline, including the distant outline of Tibidabo and the Sagrada Familia visible inland. The tour concludes at the departure point after approximately two hours.
