Sailing trips, speedboat rides and sunset cruises from Blanes: the Costa Brava seen from the sea.
4 activities · 3 local businesses · from 35 €
Four boat trips leave Blanes: a 3-hour cruise on a 24-metre classic sailing ship from 35 €, a sunset cruise for 55 €, a 90-minute speedboat run for 50 € and a private skippered boat for 6 people from 265 €. Blanes is 10 minutes from Lloret de Mar.
Three leave from Blanes harbour and the speedboat from s'Abanell beach. All head along the coast towards Tossa de Mar and stop in a cove to swim and snorkel, not just to look at it from the deck.
The 3-hour cruise (55 € per adult, 35 € for children aged 3 to 12, under-3s free) is an hour of sailing, an hour anchored in a cove and an hour back, with drinks, snacks and snorkelling gear included. The sunset cruise lasts two and a half hours, with cava and cocktails at the bar.
The speedboat is 90 minutes towards Tossa with a swimming stop, for 50 € a person. The private boat, up to 6 people, runs along coves and sea caves between Blanes and Tossa: 265 € for 2 hours, 350 € for 3 and 420 € for 4, fuel extra.
The speedboat is booked with instant confirmation and the QR pass arrives straight away. The other three are booked on request: you book online, the centre confirms within 24 hours and only then are you charged; if it cannot, you pay nothing.
The sunset cruise leaves between 18:00 and 20:00 depending on the season. Cancelling is free up to 24 hours before on most listings; each one has its exact deadline written on the page before you pay.

On three of the four. The 3-hour cruise spends an hour anchored in a cove for swimming and snorkelling, with gear and inflatables on board; the speedboat and the private boat also stop in a cove. The sunset cruise is a different thing: cava, cocktails and music while the sun goes down.
Between 18:00 and 20:00 depending on the time of year; the centre sets the exact time when it confirms the booking, within 24 hours, and only then are you charged. It lasts two and a half hours and leaves from Blanes harbour. The speedboat, by contrast, is confirmed instantly.
