Medes Islands Boat Ride
Description
Explore the crystalline waters of Costa Brava on a boat trip around the Medes Islands from Estartit! View stunning marine landscapes on an incredible adventure.
Activity Details
We'll meet along Passeig Marítim to leave Estartit behind and embark on a scenic boat trip. Let's see the best of Costa Brava! We'll sail through the Montgrí Natural Park, the Medes Islands and the Baix Ter, an ecological gem full of natural beauties.
From the moment you set foot on the boat, you'll be treated to panoramic views of the rugged coastline, impressive cliffs and hidden coves, often difficult to access. You may even spot seabirds soaring through the sky and the occasional surprise in the waves, all with the soothing background noise of waves crashing around us.
When we arrive at the Medes Islands, we’ll drop anchor for a 20-minute stop. This will be the perfect time to take a swim and cool off in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean. If you’d like, you can also explore the underwater world of the Medes Islands with the snorkeling masks and tubes provided. Did you know these islands are considered one of the best diving spots in the Mediterranean? Their rich marine life and excellent state of conservation are just some of the reasons. Truly one of the most iconic and beautiful places on the Catalan coast!
After enjoying this dive on the Costa Brava, we'll return to the starting point 1 hour and 45 minutes later.
