    About this experience

    We will sail on a magnificent 12-meter sailboat, through the crystal clear waters of the Maro-Cerro Gordo natural park, visiting its cliffs and wild coves of turquoise waters. In high season (June 1st to October 15th) we will anchor in a cove so you can enjoy time for bathing, snorkeling, surf paddling... We will sail along this incredible coast admiring the beauty and diversity of marine flora and fauna of the natural park. We will walk along the most common sighting routes of dolphins and other marine species. Although we can’t guarantee to see dolphins on each of our outings to the sea, you’ll enjoy the full sailing experience and the environment of mountains, natural classes and turquoise waters through which the activity takes place. They will be offered welcome catering so they can toast this wonderful experience. Small groups. The captain has great experience and professionalism.

    It was ok

    It's was ok. Length of time on the boat was just right. We were offered drinks and snacks but the host lacked warmth/welcome. Swimming off the boat was nice. However - We were told as we were boarding no toilet!!!! Atmosphere could've been better. No information/guide of where we were going, what we were seeing. No talk of dolphins, which we understood would be unlikely to see but this wasn't mentioned. A big issue was the lack of toilet facilities - we were told there would be no toilet as it was broken.

    Response from the operator: Dear customer, Before every trip, the captain gives a brief safety and boat-operation briefing, in addition to explaining the planned route and the sights along the way. We apologize regarding the restroom issue; it did indeed break down and could not be repaired in time, nor could we notify all customers further in advance. While we understand that a three-hour boat trip with a swimming stop might not be a major inconvenience for most people, this type of mechanical issue is very common due to heavy usage. We prefer to proceed with the trip and continue serving our customers during peak season rather than cancelling. We have taken note of your feedback. Thank you for your input. Best regards.

    Great Morning 🐬🐬🐬

    It was a surreal experience with dolphins swimming by the side of the boat. The captain brought us swimming in crystal clear waters, and he was a great host with information and snacks!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much Patrice!! 🙏

    A perfect way to spend an afternoon

    Alberto was a fantastic skipper and host, so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The yacht is beautiful and Alberto ensured we were comfortable and drinks and snacks were provided. We saw beautiful scenery and were also lucky enough to spot some dolphins! Highly recommended and well worth the money. Gracias Alberto, we will definitely be back for another trip 🙂⛵

    Great way to see the coast!

    We had a wonderful sailing outing with Alberto. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. His boat was in great condition and provided some nice snacks and cava. He had snorkeling gear and a paddleboard for a nice time in the water. We did not see dolphins this time of year, but we did not expect that. Overall, I recommend his sailing cruise and 3 hours was perfect.

    Just wonderful! Highly recommend!

    I don't usually write reviews but my Mum and I had such a wonderful trip with Alberto this week. He was kind enough to run the trip even though it was just the 2 of us and it was a highlight of the trip. Alberto is friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He was very kind helping my Mum around the boat when she was struggling to find her sea legs! The boat is absolutely immaculate and we were treated to beautiful calm waters. 5/5 would recommend this trip to anyone!

    La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Granada.

    How much does La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared cost?

    +

    Prices start at $83 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Granada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Granada is not rushed.

    Is La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Granada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared?

    +

    Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Granada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Granada and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does La Herradura: Sailboat with a view of dolphins-Shared start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Granada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Granada?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Granada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Granada: Sierra Nevada Safari tour up to 2500 meters high, Granada Tapas and Wine Small Group Tour, Granada: Albaicin and Sacromonte Segway Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Granada?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Granada?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
