Sailing between Tarragona and Menorca in September is undoubtedly a fascinating experience, but it is essential to keep a close eye on the weather forecast to avoid unpleasant surprises. Bad weather can be unpredictable at this time of year, and safety must always be the priority. As for the boat, it is good to know that it performed excellently even in 34 kt winds. However, it is true that with such high wind intensity, the 49 hp engine is somewhat limited. In these conditions, sailing skills become crucial in order not to overly lengthen the crossing. Despite the intensity and duration of the crossing, which can last around 28 hours, the trip is a unique and memorable experience that deserves to be experienced at least once. The combination of a robust boat and good sailing technique can turn a challenging crossing into an unforgettable adventure. Definitely a trip that leaves a mark!

The northern area of the Costa Brava is definitely worth a visit. The only downside is the price of buoys in the coves or in Cadaques which is excessive.

We had a lovely day out on the water from start to finish. The boat was beautiful, well maintained, and the stand up paddle board was a great addition that made the trip even more fun. A special mention to Kay, our skipper, who was absolutely amazing - friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcome and well looked after throughout the whole experience. Nothing felt rushed, and it was clear he genuinely cared about making sure everyone had a great time. Highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable day on the water. We already can’t wait to book our next outing!

We had a wonderful few hours on Carles' boat, a beautiful and very well-maintained Bavaria 40. Carles was delightful: very kind, approachable, calm, and always attentive to our comfort and enjoyment of the trip. He let us experience it at our own pace and adapted to everything with great ease. We would definitely do it again. Thank you so much, Carles!

We had an amazing boat trip on the Bali 4.2! Despite some choppy waves, the captain expertly handled the sea, making us feel safe the entire time. The food—paella—was absolutely fantastic. As for drinks, they were delightfully chilled, straight from the fridge. There was a wonderful lady on board who knew exactly what she was doing, adding even more to the experience. We highly recommend this trip!

Wonderful boat trip with Pepe on 29th December. The boat is a beautiful wooden sailing sloop. Pepe was a great skipper and looked after us very well including sailing back to the harbour and staying out a bit later for the sunset. Highly recommend

La zona de navegación entre Tarragona y Menorca en septiembre es, sin duda, una experiencia fascinante, pero es esencial estar muy atento al parte meteorológico para evitar sorpresas desagradables. El mal tiempo puede ser impredecible en esta época del año, y la seguridad siempre debe ser la prioridad. En cuanto al barco, es bueno saber que se comportó excelentemente incluso con vientos de 34 kt. Sin embargo, es cierto que con una intensidad de viento tan alta, el motor de 49 hp resulta algo justo. En esas condiciones, la habilidad para navegar con vela se convierte en un aspecto crucial para no alargar excesivamente la travesía. A pesar de la intensidad y la duración de la travesía, que puede rondar las 28 horas, el viaje es una experiencia única y memorable que merece ser vivida al menos una vez. La combinación de un barco robusto y una buena técnica de navegación puede convertir una travesía desafiante en una aventura inolvidable. ¡Definitivamente, un viaje que deja huella!

La zone nord de la Costa Brava vaut vraiment le détour. Seul bemol le prix des bouées dans les criques ou à Cadaques qui est excessif..

We were in the area and it's a great option for renting for a day. If you want more days, it's better to head south and spend the night in another port.
Estuvimos por la zona y para alquilar un día va muy bien. SI quieres más días es mejor tirar para el sur y hacer noche en otro puerto
