The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Great for traditionalists This 1994 Grand Soleil 45 suits sailors who love classic aesthetics and proven reliability over cutting-edge tech. The teak throughout and solid build quality appeal to those seeking character and timeless elegance on the water.
Well-equipped cruiser You're getting serious cruising kit here, radar, autopilot, electric winches, and dual chart plotters mean this boat handles longer passages and respects your crew's energy levels. The gennaker and bimini/sprayhood combo gives you genuine sailing pleasure plus good weather protection for extended trips.
Honest about her age At 30 years old, she'll sail beautifully if well-maintained, but expect some quirks and the occasional service hiccup that newer boats won't give you. Any 1990s yacht requires a thorough pre-charter inspection and realistic expectations about systems.
Solid value proposition A €500 deposit is reassuringly low, and at this price point and age, you're paying for a capable boat rather than flashy new-build premiums. If you're flying long-haul from the US or Northern Europe, you're getting genuine sailing credentials without the boutique-charter markup.

Club Nàutic Costa Brava in Palamós positions you well for exploring the Balearic Islands and the rugged Costa Brava coastline within a week's sailing. From here, northwesterly winds typically allow straightforward passage to Ibiza or Mallorca in 1-2 days, giving you flexible options between island hopping and sheltered anchorages along the Spanish mainland coast. The marina itself handles larger yachts and offers good provisioning; week one usually breaks into either an island crossing or a more leisurely itinerary working south toward the Emerald Coast beaches and protected coves of the Costa Brava.
