Custom Sailing Info and Reviews

Fantastic experience: Very good experience, I highly recommend it! We went to the Formigas Islands with the Menorcan boat, a llaüt guided by captain Micki, who chatted with us and answered all kinds of questions. The excursion lasted a couple of hours. If you can go out of season, even better. They are open all year round!

Fantastic experience: Cannot say enough about this company they did everything they could to make this experience amazing. My group was running late and showed up to the wrong location and they came and got us AND we didn’t lose any time on the water. AMAZING customer service!

Fantastic experience: We rented a boat from Mikki on Monday the 2nd of September and had a fantastic day out. Mikki was prompt with collecting us, gave clear instructions for us to sail without a licence and the boat and equipment provided were of high quality. I’d strongly encourage using Custom Sailing when in Calella Da Palafrugell and would use them again if on The Costa Brava.

Fantastic experience: The experience was very good, we were able to swim in the coves, see the small caves. The navigation was excellent, the boat is very nice, everything works perfectly. The boat is spacious to rest and sunbathe, good power and precision. Excellent for going as a couple. The attention from the company's staff was outstanding, they met all our needs, the person who attended to me was very pleasant and explained everything correctly, they returned my deposit at the end, I will definitely rent a boat with this company again.

Fantastic experience: Had the most amazing boat trip! The traditional Menorcan boat was beautiful and comfortable, the views were spectacular, and the skipper was superb - he took us to some fantastic quiet spots for swimming that were sheltered from the wind, and was also very knowledgeable about the area. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: Excellent service and knowledge of the area.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We had a great day out on the water in their beautiful Apreamare 9 with skipper. Appreciated having both shade and sun option on the boat. It was fairly windy/choppy the day we went out but our skipper found a calm cove for swimming and relaxing. Also appreciated how responsive Marta was when booking - she was so helpful. This was definitely a highlight of our trip to Costa Brava!

Fantastic experience: Great rental of both fast and typical local boats, also awesome customer service!

Fantastic experience: Booked one of their Invictus FX190s. We were staying in Calella so the pick up was super easy as opposed to going to Palamos or Estartit. Looking forward to the next time!

Fantastic experience: Both the boats and the service deserve a 10!
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: An unforgettable experience. The boat was in excellent condition and Captain David made us feel at home, he tailored the experience exactly to what we wanted, his service was completely professional and he took us to see the best places during the trip. This is the best option for a trip with friends or family. I highly recommend it and it will be our first option when we return.

Translated from French

Fantastic experience: A trip to repeat. The whole process, first contact, questions, contracting and, of course, the trip, very good. Trip of 10 people on the Pomet boat, with the captain, Mireia, very pleasant and participative. We made 2 stops, at Cala Foradada and the Formigues. In summary, everything was great and, for sure, we will repeat another year!!!
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service. We rented a boat with a skipper (Mireilla) who took us to splendid places! We had a wonderful time!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended boat rental company with the option to hire a skipper as well. Their staff is extremely professional and attentive; this is the second consecutive year we’ve used their services. This time, we reserved a menorquin boat, but due to last-minute technical issues with the vessel, Marta - the owner of the company - upgraded us to a superior one. Our skipper, Pere, was very friendly and courteous throughout the entire journey, taking us to three different spots during the four-hour trip we booked. We stopped at Cala d’en Massoni, with a spectacular landscape; the intriguing Hormiga Islands with their popular lighthouse; and, finally, a stop at the picturesque Cala S’Alguer. This has been a perfect 10 experience and one we’ll repeat every time we come to Costa Brava.

Fantastic experience: Best of the Costa Brava

We will repeat soon!!

Fantastic experience: We rented a 7.5 Menorquina in mid-August. They delivered the boat in good condition and clean. It had a great sun deck for sunbathing as well as a spacious bath. Ideal for enjoying the coves in this area of the Costa Brava. Next year when I come back I hope to repeat!! Thank you very much!

Fantastic experience: Ride on a Menorcan boat visiting the coves in the area of Calella, Palamós, Llafranc. The staff at Custom Sailing Costa Brava very friendly. An unforgettable afternoon. Thanks Micki!
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: Amazing 2 hour trip with Markennio around the coast on our honeymoon! He was very friendly and experienced. Originally booked for a different day but the forecast said it was going to be raining so Miquel allowed us to switch to the day before which worked out perfectly. When you arrive you just have to look for the 'custom sailing' sign and then head down to the beach area where they have a business front. They were waiting for us upon arrival. Great experience. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: An unforgettable experience!!! The boat was great and the staff at Custom Sailing were delightful!! We will definitely repeat!!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: WONDERFUL !! an impressive coast full of places that can only be accessed if you are someone who knows the area very well. We went on a typical and traditional boat with a captain who knew how to navigate, providing safety to everyone. The quality - price ratio is amazing!! WE WILL SURELY RETURN!!!!!!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Perfect day! Great plan to go out on a boat from Calella in a traditional boat visiting spectacular places. They served us a snack and paella on board, everything was delicious, the captain was very nice. Miki, thanks for everything! We will come back soon!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We had a great day exploring beautiful coves, I recommend it 100%.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Really nice boat trip visiting all the caves around Calella. I took a bath in Cala Foradada, amazing! Comfortable boat and better service!

Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful trip guided along the beautiful coast of the Costa Brava. When booking we had a choice of boats within their fleet including a traditional catalan touring boat to a more modern motor boat. The boats were new, beautiful and very stable! We felt very comfortable the entire trip. We've always spent time at the beach, but seeing the beauty of the Costa Brava from the water is an eye-opening experience that no one should miss! Our Captain (Miki) also made the trip better than any self-guided tour. His knowledge of the coast and little coves that make the Costa Brava unique made the experience all the better. We went to small beaches accessible only by boat, ventured into caves that used to be used by smugglers, and got explanations of the region's history and culture. Simply amazing. Thank you Custom Sailing Costa Brava for an unforgettable experience. Would highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Very good impression from the first approach, good mood and efficiency. We went on an excursion with a skipper who showed us very nice places to swim in inaccessible coves, and we had an excellent paella on-site. I will keep a very good memory of this experience on the Costa Brava.
