Why a yacht is the ultimate stag activity

The Golden Mile skyline, the Mediterranean sun, and your mates – it's a memory maker.

What to expect on the day
You'll meet at Puerto Banús, the heart of Marbella's luxury scene. Board your yacht, meet the skipper, and head out. Typical itinerary: cruise past the Marbella Marina, stop for a swim at Cabopino or Cala del Faro, enjoy drinks and snacks, then return. For longer charters, you can go as far as Estepona or Sotogrande. The skipper knows the best spots for photos and fun.
