Full description
You have to watch the sunset from the sea at least once in your life.
Enjoy this 2-hour sunset cruise on a historic schooner along the Costa Brava from Palamós. You’ll sail aboard a Baltic gem dating from 1903 whilst discovering the history of its fishing villages, its hidden coves and its cliffs bathed in the last light of the setting sun.
Fancy seeing out the day from a real-life maritime museum?
What we will do
We’ll meet the crew at the meeting point in Palamós about 10 minutes before departure time to board the boat. Once on board the boat, we’ll cast off and, as we set sail, we’ll be given a light-hearted briefing on the rules of conduct and safety so we can enjoy the trip without a care in the world.
We’ll let ourselves be swept away by the charm of the Costa Brava as we sail aboard an authentic Baltic coastal schooner dating from 1903. A member of the crew will explain the fascinating history of the fishing villages, the hidden coves and the cliffs we’ll discover as we sail by. We’ll have some free time to relax on deck, feel the sea breeze and find the best spot on the boat to capture the moment we’ve all been waiting for: the sunset.
The highlight of the trip will come as the sun approaches the horizon. We’ll sail peacefully out to open water to watch the sunset in all its splendour, seeing the sun dip below the horizon, casting golden and reddish hues across the coast, before setting course back to the port of Palamós.
The experience will last a total of 2 hours.

Minors must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
It is not possible to board in a wheelchair; people with mobility impairments can access the boat with assistance.
