The fiberglass hull cuts a soft arc out of Puerto Banús harbor and the Mediterranean opens like a bright, unrolled map. Onboard the 15‑metre Gerard yacht you feel the marina release you—winches click, a sunpad waits, and the water glints with possibility. Dolphins occasionally rise ahead of the bow; gulls wheel and call as the coastline slips by.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

Puerto Banús is a modern marina born in the late 1960s and 70s as Marbella’s playground; the geology here is simple—shallow continental shelf, sandy coves and occasional rocky promontories carved by wave action. Culturally the strip is high‑energy: yacht moorings, beach clubs and tapas bars line the shore, while hidden coves east toward Cabopino offer quieter water and cleaner snorkeling.
This charter is straightforward: a comfortably sized yacht for small groups, with refreshments, a bottle of wine or cava, snorkeling gear and a paddleboard included; fuel and basic taxes are covered. Expect flexible itineraries—anchor off a sheltered cove for a swim, drop a snorkel to inspect Posidonia meadows, or cruise the coastline watching for cetaceans.
Practical guidance: book morning slots for calmer seas and clearer water for snorkeling; bring reef‑safe sunscreen, a hat, and a light wind layer for open sea. Mind local rules—don’t anchor in marked seagrass beds and avoid feeding wildlife. A refundable deposit is typically held at embarkation; confirm passenger limits (advertised capacity varies) and safety briefing on arrival.
This trip suits travelers looking for relaxed coastal exploration with easy access to the Marbella scene and simple wildlife encounters.

Puerto Banús was developed in the late 1960s as a private marina and quickly became part of Marbella’s modern luxury seafront, shaping the area’s yacht culture.
The area’s Posidonia seagrass is ecologically valuable; avoid anchoring on seagrass, minimize plastic use and choose reef‑safe sunscreen to reduce impact.
