The Marbella F1 Grand Prix 2027 is the perfect excuse to combine world-class motorsport with the luxury of the Costa del Sol. While the actual race takes place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, the epicentre of the F1 weekend experience on the coast is Puerto Banús. A yacht charter from Puerto Banús lets you watch the race from the Mediterranean, anchor near the Golden Mile, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Marbella’s most glamorous marina. With our fleet of 18 boats — from the compact Mariah SX21 to the palatial Ferretti 94 — you can tailor your F1 weekend to your style and budget. All charters include a licensed skipper, fuel, drinks, snacks, and insurance. No hidden extras, just the open sea and the roar of the engines.
Why charter a yacht for the F1 Grand Prix in Marbella?
The Formula 1 weekend is about more than the race — it’s about the lifestyle. In Marbella, that means sun, sea, and style. Chartering a private boat from Puerto Banús gives you front-row seats to the Mediterranean, with the freedom to anchor at Cala del Faro or Cala Cortés for a swim between practice sessions. You avoid the queues, the crowded grandstands, and the heat of the circuit. Instead, you enjoy chilled cava, a light breeze, and the sight of the La Concha mountain in the distance. Many guests bring a tablet or projector to stream the race live on board — your skipper can help you set it up. It’s the ultimate F1 experience, redefined.

Puerto Banús is located in Nueva Andalucía, about 10 minutes by car from Marbella town centre. It is easily reached from Málaga Airport (AGP) — a 40-minute drive via the AP-7 motorway. The marina has ample parking, or you can arrive by taxi or private transfer. Once at the marina, our boats are moored at the main dock. We will send you the exact berth number upon confirmation. The port is also a short walk from the Golden Mile, Río Verde, and the luxury boutiques of Marbella.
What to do before and after the race
Combine your Marbella F1 Grand Prix 2027 yacht charter with a visit to Estepona or Sotogrande. Both are a short cruise from Puerto Banús and offer excellent dining, beaches, and marinas. Alternatively, stay in Marbella and enjoy the F1 after-parties at beach clubs like Ocean Club or Nikki Beach. Many guests also take a sunset cruise along the coast, with views of La Concha and the Gibraltar Strait in the distance. The flexibility of a private charter means you decide the itinerary.
