If you are looking for the best boat routes from Puerto Banus, the most spectacular options include sailing toward the coast of Estepona for dolphin watching, setting course for the iconic Rock of Gibraltar, or enjoying a sunset cruise in front of Marbellas Golden Mile. These journeys allow you to enjoy the Mediterranean from a privileged perspective, combining relaxation, nature, and the exclusivity that only this marina can offer.
The Dolphin Route: Heading West
One of the most popular experiences for those staying at Hotel Benabola is sailing toward the open sea for cetacean watching. Upon leaving the port and heading southwest, the currents of the Strait attract groups of bottlenose and common dolphins. It is an ideal route for families or nature lovers who want to see these animals in their natural habitat while enjoying the sea breeze.
Golden Mile Cruise and Sunset
For those who prefer a calmer and more visual navigation, the route that follows the Marbella coast toward the east is unbeatable. You will be able to contemplate the most impressive mansions in the area from the sea, along with the imposing silhouette of La Concha mountain. Ending this tour just as the sun disappears behind the horizon, tinting the sky with orange and pink tones, is the perfect plan before returning to rest in your suite at Hotel Benabola, where you can continue enjoying the views from dry land.
Journey to Gibraltar
For the more adventurous sailors, the route to the Rock of Gibraltar offers a full day at sea. It is approximately 25 nautical miles full of beauty where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic. It is a unique opportunity to anchor in uncrowded coves and enjoy a swim in crystal clear waters before starting the return to the port.
