Itinerary
Day 1
Romantic full‑moon evening: meet at the marina, board Assol for a 2.5‑hour moonlit sail, then enjoy a relaxed nightcap at the Real Club Marítimo de Sotogrande.
Arrival & check‑in at the Assol (meet on Avenida de la Marina, Puerto de Sotogrande)
Arrive at the meeting point 15–30 minutes before departure to complete check‑in and meet the crew. The crew will confirm safety briefing, hand out life jackets if needed and offer the complimentary welcome drink.
Tips from local experts:
- Plan to arrive 20–30 minutes early to find parking in Puerto de Sotogrande; the crew recommends a 15‑minute buffer before boarding.
- Bring a light windproof jacket — evenings on deck feel cooler than on shore, even in summer.
- Keep ID (passport or national ID) handy for check‑in as requested by the operator.
2.5‑Hour Full Moon Night Sailing on the Assol (Main Experience)
Board the classic Assol at 20:00 for a private 2½‑hour moonlit sail. Relax on deck with your welcome drink, enjoy the moonlit sea, crew commentary, and keep an eye out for dolphins and vistas toward the Strait of Gibraltar.
Tips from local experts:
- Reserve phone cameras with a low‑light setting or bring a small tripod for stable moonlit photos — crew can help position you for the best angles.
- If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication (e.g., Biodramina) at least one hour beforehand — the crew advises this in their guidance.
- Respect the crew’s footwear request (non‑marking soles or barefoot on board) to protect the deck — bring warm socks for later if you go barefoot.
Moonlit stroll & nightcap at Real Club Marítimo de Sotogrande
After returning to the quay, take a short moonlit stroll along Puerto de Sotogrande and enjoy a relaxed drink or dessert at the Real Club Marítimo de Sotogrande to end the evening on a quiet, private note.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask for a quiet table on the terrace facing the water — tell the staff you’re just off the moonlight cruise for the best spot.
- Check accessibility if needed: the Club terrace is step‑access from parts of the quay; staff can suggest easiest access points.
- If you prefer a late snack, request something light (cheese plate or local tapas) ahead of time — kitchens may close earlier on quieter nights.
