For those looking for a perfect Mediterranean climate for the upcoming holidays, combined with a yacht charter that allows playing in the sun, exploring the islands around or a simple anchoring for swimming and party in the sea – Spain may be on the upper list of destinations for the holidays. 

While the Spanish coast has hot and dry summers, the yacht charter guests of Spain prefer yachting in July and August, the yachting season in this country from which one can catch up more than an enriching experience goes from May till October.

The seashores, old coastal towns, tons of cultural traditions: these define Spain as a pearl of old Europe. Even more – when combined with worldwide known Flamenco dancers, white villages romantically set on the picturesque hills, as well as the widespread cathedrals and the delicious cafes – the puzzle of Spain can be easily done. Even easier when exploring it on a yacht.

Once you have chosen your perfect yacht, the unforgettable experience in Spain can start at your own pace. For first-timers in Spain, the most preferable first stops often appear to be the coastal cities that have something to offer to pretty much every type of sailor. All the way from Barcelona to Costa del Sol, coastal Spain seems to be bejeweled with plenty of colorful architecture and unspoiled beaches that can be both explored at a fast route or enjoyed from dusk till dawn, if you prefer.

Sailing around mainland Spain is a great opportunity to get straight to the heart of the splendid Valencia, where you can catch up lots of historic tales beginning from the Phoenicians till modern times. Visiting Alicante and the eminent Santa Barbara castle, as well as Cartagena – also known as ‘Venice in Spain’ will offer you more than history: flat beaches spread with light sand and even diving in the coral reefs – for those feeling a bit more adventurous.

Balearic Islands on a yacht: Each sailor’s dream come true

Yacht charter Spain looks as if it’s the ultimate choice for exploring the Balearic Islands of Spain. The golden beaches, tranquil mountaintops, inlets and pretty much all year long lively ports can bring plentiful of beautiful memories to cherish. Stopping at Palma de Mallorca, Menorca, Formentera – or the vivid Ibiza (or preferably all of them), idyllic islands of Spain is a dream come true for a first-time yachting in Spain.

Whereas Mallorca can offer a true laid back vibe and restful hours lounging on your yacht, you may as well choose to hike up to the mountains and become stunned of the contrast from the sapphire blue sea and the rolling hills: a picture to remember. As laid back as Mallorca appears to be, experienced yachtsmen often use it as a prelude to the steamy Ibiza – the home of the wildest parties in the world.

After a long day walk on the cobblestone streets, daytime partying on the beach, or enjoying some tasty Spanish food on your yacht; consider doing as the Spanish do: cherishing the siesta, or the break from the day. Just stop for an hour and gaze at the amazing sea scenes, take a deep breath and decide where to go next. After all, yachting in Spain is popular among the sailors for a reason: the vibes of the coasts and the amazing Balearic Islands are a perfect choice for an unforgettable experience.
