Set sail along Jávea’s rugged Mediterranean coast with Mundo Marino Grupo’s catamaran tour. Swim in sheltered coves, lounge under the sun on deck nets, and enjoy a barbecue onboard for a truly unique coastal experience.
On Spain’s southeastern Mediterranean coast, the town of Jávea offers a rugged coastline where sun, sea, and limestone cliffs meet in vivid contrast. Mundo Marino Grupo invites adventurers to experience this coastline differently, aboard their Catamarán Mundo Marino for the 'Tour Isla del Portixol con BBQ.' This 3.5-hour voyage combines the serenity of open water with intimate access to hidden coves, all framed by the blue expanse of the Mediterranean and dramatic rock formations.
Departing from Jávea’s marina, this trip capitalizes on the unique geology of the Cap de Sant Antoni headland. The route navigates around Isla del Portixol—a rocky islet formed from Jurassic limestone—offering swimmers and snorkelers calm, crystal-clear waters protected from open sea currents. Guests have the rare opportunity to lounge on the catamaran’s wide nets, feeling the pulse of waves beneath, then dive into secluded bays where crowds seldom reach.
What sets Mundo Marino apart is its seamless fusion of adventure and leisure: once the day’s aquatic freedom peaks, guests gather for a freshly grilled barbecue on board. Local ingredients meet casual conviviality, deepening the connection to regional culture without leaving the sea. This hands-on, laid-back vibe is a refreshing contrast to typical beach excursions.
Jávea’s coastline draws a growing outdoor community looking for active experiences that go beyond crowded shorelines. Mundo Marino Grupo’s tours harness the natural rhythms of the sea and sun, promoting a sustainable, immersive connection to this Mediterranean jewel. For outdoor enthusiasts keen on combining light sailing, swimming, and local flavor, this trip ranks as an exceptional escape that blends nature, culture, and relaxation in equal measure.
