Boat Trips From The Marina Del Este, La Herradura
Top luxury sailing charter operator on the Axarquia/Costa Tropical ‘Sailnplay’ are ready and waiting to welcome you on one of their great boat trips this summer.
Operating since 2008 (last year was their 13th year…….arrrgghhh, you may have guessed something would go wrong!!), the only complaint has been about the drive down to the Marina and the nightmare of parking in the summer months. So, now, new for 2021 they are offering minibus transfers for guests from all over the area. And it also means everyone in your party can enjoy a few drinks onboard without worry! So, treat yourself with a half day out (4 hours) of unlimited drinks and a full sumptuous buffet meal on a luxurious motor yacht, the Charlie Ruggle, ideal for family celebrations. If you prefer a sailing yacht, then the ever-favourite catamaran trips are still going strong since 2008, and the minimum group size for a private charter has been reduced down from 8 to only 6 guests on all the four hour trips so that your group can relax safe in the knowledge that the correct precautions have been taken for your well being and safety post-covid. The catamaran trips are 90€ and the top of the range motor yacht 120€ per person (both half price for children). Spoil yourselves as you enjoy complimentary drinks throughout, and a magnificent buffet meal served by an ever-attentive crew as you glory in the beauty of the stunning coastline on board your very own luxury powerboat or catamaran yacht, at a mere fraction of the cost of actually owning one. Visit unspoilt and otherwise inaccessible coves and bays, see dolphins close up, and really live the dream for you and up to 6-12 guests for your special occasion. Breakfast, lunch, and sunset dinner trips are all available for summer 2021. Visit the website on www.sailnplay.com now for full details (or see the advert opposite).
All precautions following Covid-19 have been taken, and all guests will be asked to report to the office at the entrance to the marina first where you and your party will have your temperatures taken, and where masks and hand gel will be available for those who don’t supply their own. The office also sells essentials such as sun creams, hats, flip-flops, sunglasses and towels. All the boats
have large sundecks where social distancing is not a problem.
Planning a party this summer or next year in 2022? Then talk to Mike on 669 118 816 as the yachts are the perfect venue for your hen, stag, wedding, birthday, anniversary, or any other special event. With Bluetooth music connectivity onboard, superb catering and additional watersports on offer, this option is very popular, particularly as Sailnplay will charter in several other yachts for special events giving a whopping capacity of up to 50 guests, all sailing at the same time and anchoring up together for a whale of a time. For sailing times visit www.sailnplay.com and for contact information see the advert opposite. Sailnplay also rent out kayaks and paddleboards for use on the nearby Marina Bay or Hidden Beach, (both only a few minutes away).
And finally, Sailnplay are again offering their full range of RIBS, speedboats and powerboats for hire (some with no boat licence required!) from just €175 for half a day. Check all this out on their website www.sailnplay.com, give Mike a ring on 669 118 816, or pop into the office at the marina entrance.
Looks like there will be something for everybody down at Marina del Este this summer and in spite of the horrible and unusual events of late, Sailnplay promise that your visit to Marina del Este will be the highlight of your holiday.
