Lloret de Mar: Catamaran Cruise with Food, Drinks, and Music

This party boat makes the coast feel close. I like the free bar and the onboard DJ and games, which turn a simple sail into a lively 3-hour escape on the Costa Brava.

You’ll also get a buffet of burgers, hot dogs, and tuna salad, plus lots of ways to get wet, including snorkeling gear onboard. One watch-out: getting back up after swimming can be awkward, and a couple reviews mentioned toilet cleanliness.

Key Reasons This Cruise Works

• Open bar style drinks package: beer, cava sangria, soft drinks, and water included
• Food is built for momentum: burgers, hot dogs, and tuna salad buffet with toppings
• Big water play right off the boat: jumping from the upper deck, slide, trampoline, and floats
• Mediterranean snorkeling gear onboard for a quick look at sea life
• Entertainers run the energy, with Olivia leading activities like games and Zumba in some sessions
• Great value for 3 hours: food, drinks, and activities all rolled into one price

Sailing the Costa Brava Between Lloret de Mar and St Feliu

This catamaran route is all about the coast views, with sailing between Lloret de Mar and St Feliu along coves of the wild shoreline. Instead of a slow, sit-and-snap kind of cruise, this one keeps you moving, talking, and playing.

What I like most for your planning: you get a full 3 hours on the water without needing to string together multiple activities. It’s a straightforward way to enjoy the Costa Brava for a morning or afternoon block, especially if your days in town are already packed.

Price and Value: What $57 Buys You Onboard

At about $57 per person for a 3-hour cruise, the value depends on what you want from your day. If you’re after views plus a proper party setting, this pricing makes sense because drinks and food are included.

Here’s what’s actually part of the package:

• Beer, cava sangria, soft drinks, and water
• A free buffet with burgers, hot dogs, and tuna salad

The bigger win is that the included food and drinks reduce decision fatigue. You do not need to hunt down a bar or plan meals on the fly. One review also praised fast service during unlimited drinks, which matters when you’re in and out of the water and do not want long waits.

The Included Buffet: Burgers, Hot Dogs, Tuna Salad, and Supplements

The buffet setup is simple and satisfying. You’ll find freshly cooked hamburgers with multiple supplements, hot dogs, and tuna fish salad. It’s the kind of meal that keeps you fueled for swimming, not something that turns into a long dinner process.

That said, expect “good buffet” rather than “wow restaurant.” Some reviews described the food as tasty, while others said it was average. If you’re picky about hygiene standards in food service, keep that in mind and be selective with what you eat.

A small practical tip from the vibe on board: bring a towel and plan to rinse off quickly after water time. It’s not just comfort, it also helps you get back to eating without feeling sticky or sandy.

Open Bar Plus Music and Games: The DJ-Led Party Style

This cruise is not a quiet sightseeing hour. There’s music from the beginning, a DJ onboard, and professional entertainers who keep the group involved with games and animation.

In the reviews, Olivia shows up as a standout party starter, including leading Zumba. That matters because it tells you the energy is not random. There’s usually a plan for interaction, so you are not stuck waiting for the next fun moment.

The best way to judge fit: if you like group games, dancing, or just enjoying a lively atmosphere with friends, you’ll probably have a great time. If you want silence, this is likely the wrong type of boat.

Water Activities Off the Upper Deck: Slides, Trampoline, and Jumping

The defining feature is the playground built into the catamaran. You’re encouraged to jump from the top deck, slide down the waterside, and use the trampoline. Then there are floating blocks for relaxing in the water with drinks.

This is where the cruise feels most Costa Brava. Mediterranean light hits the water, and everything becomes more playful when you’re actually in it.

Now, the practical consideration. One review warned that it can be difficult and even dangerous getting back on the boat after swimming. That’s exactly the kind of detail you should take seriously. If you’re not a confident swimmer, or you have balance issues, stick closer to the ladder areas and keep an eye on your footing. The point is fun, not risk.

Snorkeling Gear Onboard: A Quick Peek at Sea Life

If you want more than just swimming, snorkeling is available. The cruise includes snorkeling equipment onboard, so you do not need to bring gear or stop at a dive shop.

From a planning standpoint, this is a smart add-on because it turns “coast views” into “coast views plus sea life.” Even a short snorkeling session can make the water time feel more meaningful.

Just remember it’s not described as a deep, guided dive. Think of it as an easy chance to look around while the boat is on the water.

Toilets, Food Quality, and Other Real-World Notes

Most reviews lean heavily positive. People mention friendly staff, fun crew energy, and an easy-to-find meeting location along the beach front. Several also say they’d do it again.

But for balance, here are the issues worth factoring in:

• Reboarding after swimming can be tricky, according to at least one review
• Toilets may not be spotlessly clean, which one review explicitly called out
• Food quality is not uniform, with some calling it good and others saying average
• One review noted that even though it’s meant for adults, a young child was onboard

Those are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to set expectations. Treat this cruise like an energetic party boat with simple food and shared facilities, not like a high-end yacht experience.

Who This Cruise Suits Best (And Who Should Skip It)

This is a strong fit for adults 18 and up who want a short, low-planning day with:

• included food and drinks
• music and games
• multiple chances to swim off the boat

It may also work for mixed groups, since several reviews described a friendly, social atmosphere. The vibe seems designed to get people talking, even if you show up as a smaller group.

Skip it if you:

• want a quiet, reflective nature cruise
• prefer a calm pool-like pace
• are uncomfortable with the idea of jumping, slides, and water play
• need a kid-friendly environment, since the activity is not suitable for children under 18
• plan a bachelor party group, since bachelor party groups are not allowed

Practical Tips Before You Go to Passeig Agusti Font 4

Meeting point is Passeig Agusti Font 4, Lloret de Mar. The cruise itself is 3 hours, so show up with enough time to get settled, find your place, and get your swim kit ready.

What to bring is straightforward. Pack:

• Sunglasses
• Swimwear
• Towel
• Sunscreen
• Flip-flops

These matter because the schedule is water-heavy and the boat life feels more comfortable when you’re prepared. If you forget a towel or sunscreen, you’ll feel it fast.

Also, follow the onboard rules. Alcohol and drugs are not allowed, and intoxication is not allowed either. Party groups and costumes are also not allowed, and bachelor party groups are specifically banned. If you’re traveling with a group, keep the vibe respectful and you’ll be in the sweet spot.

One last planning note: transfers are not included. That means you’ll need your own way to get to the meeting point. If you’re staying in central Lloret de Mar, it’s typically easier to reach on foot or by a short local ride, but you should still plan for it.

Should You Book This Catamaran Cruise?

Book it if you want a high-energy, 3-hour Costa Brava outing where you can eat, drink, dance, and play in the sea without doing a bunch of extra logistics. At this price point, the value is strongest if you’ll actually use the included bar and water activities.

Consider a different option if you’re primarily after serene scenery, want a very quiet experience, or you’re worried about rougher boarding after swimming. Also, if cleanliness is your top priority, keep in mind that at least one review mentioned toilet cleanliness issues.

If your idea of a great day is sun, music, friends, and time in the water, this cruise is the kind that delivers quickly.
