Operated by Eco Boats SL · Ampuriabrava, Cataluña
Ampuriabrava, located on Spain's northeastern Mediterranean coast in Cataluña, offers one of Europe’s largest marinas and a unique network of canals cutting through the landscape. This modern seaside town structure stands apart for its intricate waterways, designed for easy boat navigation and lively waterfront culture. Eco Boats SL taps directly into this watery landscape with their signature offering: an hour-long electric boat rental experience that requires no boating license. This adventure invites you to pilot a small, eco-friendly electric boat with up to five passengers, giving you unfettered access to Ampuriabrava’s canals and coastal sights.
The electric boats are simple to operate, equipped with GPS navigation to ensure even first-timers glide confidently through the narrow channels and open marine areas. The chance to pilot your own craft positions Eco Boats SL as a one-of-a-kind provider in the area’s outdoor recreation scene, marrying effortless boating with sustainability. Rustic waterfront homes, lush reeds, and fresh salty air define the route, while the electric motors mean quiet passage, ideal for spotting local wildlife such as herons and terns.
Unlike traditional motorboats, these electric vessels produce zero emissions and tread lightly across this delicate coastal ecosystem, which is home to unique Mediterranean flora and the nearby Aiguamolls de l’Empordà Natural Park. The experience combines hands-on adventure with environmental mindfulness, making it perfect for families, small groups, or solo travelers who want a gentle but immersive glimpse of Ampuriabrava’s charm.
Whether you’re after a serene afternoon on the water or a fresh perspective on Catalonia’s coast, Eco Boats SL stands out as a rare option that blends technology, ease, and nature.
