Combine your next round at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande with a luxury boat transfer from Marbella. Depart Puerto Banús, cruise the Costa del Sol in under an hour, and arrive at Sotogrande Marina ready to tee off. No traffic, no parking stress — just a cold drink, sea air, and a direct water route to one of Europe's finest golf destinations. Our Marbella boat rental service makes it simple, with all-inclusive pricing from €749 for two hours.
Why take a boat to Sotogrande Golf?
Driving from Marbella to Sotogrande takes roughly 40 minutes on the AP-7, but parking near the club can be tight. A boat transfer turns the journey into part of the experience. You'll leave from Puerto Banús, pass Cabopino and Cala del Faro, and arrive at the marina a short taxi ride from the course. The 50-minute crossing is smooth, scenic, and includes complimentary drinks and snacks. For groups of 4–9, the Astondoa 40 or Azimut 39 are ideal — both cost €749 for a 2-hour charter, which covers the transfer and a little extra time for photos or a short cruise back.
Our recommended boats for golf transfers
Choose based on group size. For up to 9 guests, the Astondoa 40 (12.5m) or Azimut 39 (12.5m, 11 pax) are the most cost-effective options at €749/2h. Both have a comfortable saloon and outdoor seating for your golf bags. For larger groups up to 12, the Mangusta 80 (24m) offers a faster, more spacious ride at €4,719 for a minimum 4-hour booking — includes a jet ski for post-golf fun. All boats depart from Puerto Banús and include skipper, fuel, drinks, snacks, insurance, and 21% VAT. No hidden fees.
