• Mobile phone for safety

• Sunscreen (recommended SPF 50), plus a hat or cap for sun protection

• Beach towel

• Waterproof bags (a watertight cabinet is available on the boat)

• Ice, food, and drinks—water is essential (cooler provided on the boat)

• And, of course, bring your enthusiasm for a fun day out!

Yes, there is ample parking available near the departure area, allowing you to park conveniently and free of charge.

For safety reasons, navigation is limited to the Spanish Water lagoon area, so you won’t be able to take the boat out to sea. Within the Spanish Water, however, you’re free to explore and enjoy all designated areas.

No, the maximum capacity is strictly 6 people, regardless of age. This limit is enforced by regulations and insurance coverage. Exceeding it, even with a child, voids insurance and could lead to fines and removal of the boat from service without a refund.

No, pets are not allowed on board due to the risk of damage to the upholstery and cushions. This helps us maintain the boat’s condition and ensures a comfortable experience for all passengers.

No, it’s essential to have someone on board at all times. Since the sea is a dynamic environment, a designated person must stay on the boat to maintain control and ensure safety.
