Yacht charter in Gran Canaria
A crewed yacht from the calm south-west, for an afternoon at sea or a whole week.
Step aboard in Puerto de Mogán with nothing to carry and nothing to plan. The crew knows where the water is clearest today, lunch is served at anchor below the cliffs, and the only question is whether to swim before or after. You come back to harbour as the light turns gold, and the car is already waiting on the quay.
- Marinas
- Puerto de Mogán, Puerto Rico and Pasito Blanco in the south-west; Las Palmas in the north.
- Boats
- Sailing catamarans, motor yachts and larger crewed yachts, chosen for your group and the day you have in mind.
- Length
- Half days, full days, sunset sails and week-long charters.
- The sea
- The south-west lies in the island’s lee, sheltered from the trade winds: some of the calmest water in the Canaries, all year.
- Your host
- One person from your first message to your return to harbour, replying within one working day.
What is included
A day at sea with nothing left to arrange.
Every charter is crewed, quoted in full before you confirm, and fitted around the way you like to spend a day.
-
Captain and crew
A licensed captain and crew on every charter, so no one in your party needs a boating licence or has to lift a rope.
-
Lunch at anchor
Served on deck in a quiet bay: fresh fish and salads prepared on board, or a menu sent from a harbour restaurant you like.
-
Coves, swimming and wildlife
The coves of the south-west coast, snorkelling in clear water, and dolphins on many days, watched from the respectful distance the law requires.
-
To the quay and back
A driver takes you from the villa to the marina and is waiting when you step ashore, towels and bags taken care of.
Tell us the date and who is coming, and Alba arranges the rest.

Yacht charter in Gran Canaria, answered.
How much does a yacht charter cost in Gran Canaria?
It depends on the size of the yacht, the length of the charter and the season. Every charter is quoted in full before you confirm, with crew, fuel, food and drink set out line by line, so the price you agree is the price you pay. Sending a request costs nothing.
Where do yacht charters leave from in Gran Canaria?
Most leave from the south-west marinas of Puerto de Mogán, Puerto Rico and Pasito Blanco, where the sea is calmest. Charters from Las Palmas in the north are also possible.
Can I charter a yacht in Gran Canaria for just one day?
Yes. Half-day and full-day charters are the usual choice, and sunset sails are often only a few hours. Week-long charters can take in Tenerife or the other islands.
Do I need a boating licence to charter a yacht?
No. Every charter we arrange comes with a licensed captain and crew, so you only need to enjoy the day.
Can you book a yacht charter at short notice?
Often, yes: a boat for tomorrow is usually possible outside the busiest weeks. For Christmas, Easter and the summer holidays, tell us your dates as early as you can.
Is the sea calm enough for children?
The south-west coast is sheltered from the prevailing winds, which makes it the calmest stretch of sea on the island. The captain checks the forecast and chooses the route for comfort, and children’s life jackets can be requested.
