Planning a Hen Party Boat Trip in Marbella? Read This First

If you're the one organising, you already know the job: find something everyone will love, keep the group together, don't blow the budget, and make sure the bride has the best day of the trip. A private boat ticks every box — but only if you book the right one. Here's everything you need to know before you do.

Private boat or party boat?

Marbella has both, and they are very different days.

A party boat puts your group on board with strangers, a fixed route, and a bar bill. A private charter gives you the whole boat — your music, your route, your pace, nobody else's stag do sharing the deck. For a hen group, private wins every time. The bride is the centre of attention, not one of eighty people queuing for drinks.

Our charters are private only. Up to 8 guests, one professional skipper, and the day runs how your group wants it to run.

What's actually included

Every charter includes your skipper, fuel, Prosecco on boarding, soft drinks and water, and swim stops wherever the group fancies. Drinks are included, not unlimited — and you're welcome to bring your own on top, so if the group has a favourite, pack it.

There's a Bluetooth speaker on board. Bring the playlist.

Can we decorate?

Yes. Sashes, balloons, banners, a veil for the bride — all fine. Bring a cake if you like; we'll keep it somewhere it won't slide. Just keep decorations off the water (no confetti or loose glitter — it goes straight in the sea and stays there).

How much does it cost?

Three options, whole boat, all-in:

• 2 hours — €399. A swim stop, Prosecco, the coastline. Perfect if the boat is one part of a bigger day.
• 4 hours — €699. The one most hen groups book. Time to cruise, swim, eat something on board, and not watch the clock.
• The Marbella Day Charter (6 hours) — €1,099. For groups who want the boat to be the day.

Split between 8, the 4-hour charter is about €87 each — less than most hen dinners, for a day nobody will forget to photograph.

What should everyone bring?

Swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a cover-up for the ride back. Phones charged — the photo opportunities do most of the work. If anyone in the group gets seasick, the morning slots are usually calmer, and we stay close to the coast.

What if the weather turns?

If the sea isn't right on your date, we reschedule free of charge — always. You can also change your date free up to 7 days before. And there's no payment to reserve: you message us, we hold the date, and a real person confirms everything on WhatsApp. No forms, no call centres.

What one recent group said

“Had a brilliant day… Jason was brilliant, great to talk to and knew so much about the area. 10/10 day, would definitely recommend — something on board for everyone.”— Grace C. · Google review
