Our Itinerary
Warning
Although we're showing you an example of a sunset-focused itinerary, remember that this shared tour lasts 3 hours and 30 minutes and includes snorkeling, kayaking and paddle surfing, dolphin and marine wildlife watching, and a ride down an extra-large water slide. The best time for sunset viewing is from March to May.
Departing from Benalmádena
The boat awaits you at Berth 37 in Benalmádena Marina in the late afternoon, just as the light begins to change. The crew will welcome you on board, and in a few minutes you'll be sailing towards the horizon.
Cruise along the Costa del Sol
With the boat underway, you'll drift away from the shore, and the Costa del Sol will unfold before you from the sea. A landscape that already has its own charm at night, but which reaches a whole new level at sunset.
The Moment of Sunset
The sun touches the horizon and the sky transforms. Oranges, pinks, mauves: the Mediterranean offers a different spectacle every evening, and you'll have the best seats in the house. This is the moment that makes Sunset Boating an experience you'll want to repeat.
Return to the Port
With the sky now dark and the memory of the sunset etched in our minds and on our phones, the boat sets course back to Benalmádena Marina. A perfect afternoon that ends as it began: calmly, with the sea as the main attraction.

Our Customer Reviews


They also provided food and drinks at no extra charge.
10 out of 10! I'll be back with my family next time.


Last Sunday, they gave us the time of our lives. We spotted quite a few dolphins, got plenty of time to swim, and used the paddle courts and slides. Additionally, there was a great atmosphere provided by the music, etc.
Thank you! - Moratex Lebbeke futsal team Belgium



I couldn't recommend them enough!
They had all the gear we needed and even had lunch for us.
Thank you


Álvaro and Luis were very attentive at all times. They offered us jackets when it was cold up top (where the views were spectacular), wetsuits for everyone because the water was cold, a glass for my drink, and they made sure the slide was always full of water so we could slide down.
A 100% recommended experience.


The crew on the boat were very helpful and you always felt safe. Strongly recommended.

We weren't expecting to see many dolphins but I was so wrong. There were lots of dolphins splashing and playing around. Some came right up to the boat and swam along side. Highly recommend this boat trip.
