There are few experiences as enchanting as a full moon cruise Marbella. As the sun sinks behind La Concha and the moon rises over the Mediterranean, the coastline transforms into a glittering panorama of lights and shadows. From the sleek superyachts of Puerto Banús to the quiet coves of Cala del Faro, a night on the water under a full moon is pure magic. Whether you're celebrating an anniversary, proposing, or simply escaping the summer crowds, our fleet of 19 boats is ready to take you there.
Why choose a full moon cruise in Marbella?
Marbella's microclimate means even summer evenings are warm, often staying above 25°C until midnight. A full moon cruise lets you dodge the daytime heat while enjoying the best views of the Costa del Sol. You'll sail past the Golden Mile, spot the lights of Estepona in the distance, and maybe anchor near Cabopino for a swim under the stars. The moonlit sea is calm, the air is soft, and the champagne is chilled.
