Understanding Dietary Restrictions on Marbella Yacht Charters
Dietary restrictions are common among our guests, and we take them seriously. All our charters include light snacks and drinks, but we can customize the menu to suit vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or nut-free diets. The key is advance notice—ideally 48 hours—so our team can source fresh, local ingredients from Marbella's markets. Whether you're cruising to Cabopino or anchoring off Estepona, your meals will be prepared with care. Our standard inclusions already cover vegan-friendly beverages, so you're off to a great start.
