Combine a sunset yacht charter from Puerto Banús with a Starlite 2037 concert for an unforgettable evening on the Costa del Sol. Depart at 18:00, enjoy a 2-hour cruise along the Marbella coastline, and return by 20:15 – just in time to walk 10 minutes to the Auditorio at Cantera de Nagüeles. Prices start at €749 for the Astondoa 40 or Azimut 39, including skipper, drinks, snacks, and VAT. Read on for timing tips, boat recommendations, and booking advice.
Why Choose a Pre-Concert Yacht Charter?
A pre-concert cruise transforms a standard night out into a full evening experience. You skip the crowded restaurant queues, enjoy sunset over the Mediterranean, and arrive at the Auditorio relaxed and ready. The sea breeze and a glass of cava set the mood long before the first note. With Puerto Banús just 1.5 km from the venue, the logistics are seamless.
Best Timing for Starlite 2037
Starlite concerts typically start at 21:00. We recommend departing Puerto Banús at 18:00 for a 2-hour cruise. This gives you golden-hour light, a calm sea, and time to return, freshen up, and walk to the Auditorio by 20:30. If you prefer a longer sail, choose a 4-hour charter departing at 16:00 and arrive at the dock by 20:00.
