Rent a boat in Barcelona at the best price

Your boat rental in Barcelona with Click&Boat

Barcelona is located in a small coastal plain near the French border, at the foot of the mountain Collserola. It is Spain's second-biggest city and second-biggest port of Catalonia. There is no city that can compete with Barcelona when it comes to style and energy. You can start on the promenade of Las Ramblas, and then proceed to the medieval core of the city, Barri Gotic.

After exploring all the monuments of Barcelona, you can rent a boat and cruise around to nearby cities such as Lloret de Mar, or maybe towards the south to Garraf. With its Mediterranean climate and long summers (May to September), Barcelona provides a comfortable environment for boating, even in the spring.

How much does it cost for a boat rental in Barcelona?

It is important to know that when you rent a boat in Barcelona, there are several different factors that can alter the cost. These include the size of the vessel, the time of year, or whether your boat comes with or without extras. For example, a yacht charter in Barcelona with a skipper and/or crew will probably cost more than a bare boat charter.

The best time to rent a boat in Barcelona is typically from late spring to early autumn, around May through October. During these months, the weather is generally sunny and warm, making it ideal for boating and enjoying the Mediterranean Sea. The peak summer months of July and August offer the warmest temperatures and the most vibrant atmosphere, although they can also be the busiest and most expensive times due to high tourist traffic.
