7-Night Costa Brava Catamaran Charter with Skipper from Port of Roses
This weekly catamaran charter from Port of Roses has been designed for guests who want the Costa Brava to unfold as more than a pretty backdrop. Over the course of 7 nights, the itinerary introduces artistic villages, fishing harbors, Roman heritage, marine reserve waters, and scenic passages that make the coastline feel dynamic and layered rather than repetitive. It is an excellent choice for travelers who want both relaxation and content in their holiday - time to swim and sunbathe, but also time to explore ashore, enjoy authentic local dining, and move through different parts of northern Catalonia by sea. With a professional skipper included, the route remains flexible and stress-free, while the spacious catamaran gives guests the comfort needed to enjoy the week at a genuinely leisurely pace.
About Our Service in Port of Roses, Cadaqués, Port de la Selva, L’Escala, L’Estartit and the Medes Islands
Day 1 - Saturday starts in Port of Roses from 17:00, where guests board the yacht in a well-organized marina environment and have time to settle into their cabins, become familiar with the boat, and receive a complete safety and route orientation from the skipper. The opening sail to Cadaqués is one of the most rewarding ways to begin a Costa Brava holiday, because arrival by sea reveals the village in its most photogenic form. Whitewashed buildings, narrow streets, and a softly curving bay create a setting that immediately feels special. Guests can explore ashore, enjoy dinner by the waterfront, or simply remain onboard and absorb the atmosphere of the first evening.
On Day 2 - Sunday, the yacht departs for Port de la Selva, following a route shaped by the natural beauty of Cap de Creus. This day introduces a quieter and more traditional side of the Costa Brava. Port de la Selva is the type of stop that appeals to guests who appreciate local character rather than overly polished resort life. The nearby Sant Pere de Rodes monastery adds historical and cultural interest, while the beaches and calm waters allow the day to remain equally enjoyable for guests who prefer swimming, paddleboarding, or a slower rhythm. The evening can be spent dining onboard with village lights in view or ashore in a relaxed seafood restaurant.
Day 3 - Monday continues south to L’Escala on a longer but comfortable sailing leg. This change in distance gives the week a satisfying progression, with more time underway and a growing sense of having truly traveled along the coast. L’Escala is known for its beaches, maritime atmosphere, and famous anchovy tradition, but it also offers access to the Empúries Roman ruins, which introduce a fascinating historical layer to the itinerary. Guests can divide the afternoon between archaeological discovery, beach relaxation, local market visits, and enjoying tapas or seafood by the sea. The overnight stop here gives the charter a richer cultural dimension than a purely anchorage-based route would provide.
On Day 4 - Tuesday, the yacht makes the shorter passage to L’Estartit, a lively town that acts as an ideal base for the next stage of the itinerary. The town itself offers a pleasant marina setting, shops, restaurants, and attractive shoreline views, but its greatest value lies in its proximity to one of the Costa Brava’s best-known marine environments. Guests can spend the day enjoying the coast at an easy pace, with time for swimming, paddleboarding, and dining either onboard or ashore while preparing for the following day’s exploration.
Day 5 - Wednesday is one of the route’s defining highlights, focused on the Medes Islands Marine Reserve. This protected area is celebrated for its clear waters and marine life, making it especially attractive for snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, and eco-oriented boating experiences. Even guests who are not active divers will appreciate the sense of place here - the quality of the water, the ecological importance of the reserve, and the visual beauty of the islands rising from the sea. The day feels distinct from the rest of the week because it is centred on the marine environment itself. After exploration, the yacht returns to L’Estartit for a relaxed evening and a comfortable overnight stay.
Day 6 - Thursday takes the yacht back to L’Escala, but with the opportunity to pause in scenic coves along the way for swimming or snorkeling. Returning to a destination within the same charter is valuable when the stop offers more than a brief one-time visit can reveal. Guests who want another look at Empúries, a final market visit, or a quieter evening ashore will appreciate the extra time, while those who prefer the yacht can enjoy sunset dining onboard with a familiar coastal setting around them.
Day 7 - Friday completes the route with the return to Port of Roses. The final sailing leg serves as both a scenic passage and a last opportunity to enjoy the sea before the charter concludes. Back in Roses, guests can explore the waterfront promenade, browse shops, or enjoy a final meal ashore while reflecting on a week that has included villages, history, swimming, protected marine areas, and the steady comfort of life onboard. On Day 8 - Saturday, disembarkation takes place at 09:00 after breakfast.
About Our Catamaran
This charter is operated aboard a 2017 Bavaria Nautitech 46 Fly catamaran, a yacht that is particularly effective for weekly private cruises because it combines stable sailing characteristics with impressive onboard volume and a layout designed for real group comfort. At 13.71 metres long and 7.55 metres wide, it offers a noticeably spacious platform with the stability advantages that catamarans are known for, especially during coastal cruising and overnight stays at anchor.
The accommodation configuration includes 4 double cabins and 2 individual cabins, allowing up to 12 guests onboard. This makes it a very versatile option for different group compositions, from families with children to couples traveling together or a mixed group of sailing friends. The presence of 4 bathrooms plus 2 showers improves convenience throughout the week and helps preserve a comfortable routine during active charter days. These practical details matter greatly on a longer itinerary and contribute directly to the premium feel of the experience.
The yacht’s flybridge is one of its most attractive social features, giving guests an elevated panoramic space that is ideal for cruising views, sunbathing, or enjoying drinks in the late afternoon. The outdoor lounge and dining area are equally central to the charter experience, turning breakfasts, lunches, and evening meals into moments that remain fully connected to the sea. Inside, the modern saloon and galley arrangement support extended stays with a double refrigerator, oven, cooktop, hot water system, stereo entertainment, USB and Bluetooth connectivity, inverter, solar-ready systems, bathing platform, and dinghy davits all included as part of the yacht’s practical setup.
For navigation and safe coastal operation, the yacht is fitted with autopilot, GPS, VHF, speed sensor, anemometer, and electric windlass, supported by twin 50hp Volvo engines for dependable maneuvering. The result is a catamaran that is not only spacious and attractive, but also highly appropriate for a scenic, week-long route that blends villages, anchorages, and protected waters.
Where Comfort Meets Discovery on the Costa Brava
What gives this charter a stronger sales appeal than many standard weekly routes is the breadth of experience it offers without becoming complicated or tiring. Guests enjoy the visual charm of Cadaqués, the authenticity of Port de la Selva, the heritage of L’Escala, the lively setting of L’Estartit, and the ecological richness of the Medes Islands, all while living aboard a spacious private catamaran with a professional skipper handling the route. It is this combination of comfort, variety, and effortless flow that makes the charter stand out in the region. Rather than choosing between culture, nature, and relaxation, guests enjoy all three in a single sailing week. For anyone seeking a Costa Brava yacht holiday that feels complete, generous in detail, and genuinely worth the time, this itinerary is an outstanding option.
