What our guests say
"We rented the Remus 450 for a family afternoon and it was perfect. Very easy to handle, the Santa Margarita canals are gorgeous and we made it to Cala Almadraba. The whole boat just for us."
"Wonderful private excursion to Cap de Creus. The skipper knows every cove. We swam in turquoise water with no one else around. Would definitely do it again."
"We had a licence and rented the Spirit of the Sea for a group of 10. Impeccable welcome, boat in perfect condition. The area is spectacular and departing from the canals is already an experience in itself."
