Sailing between Tarragona and Menorca in September is undoubtedly a fascinating experience, but it is essential to keep a close eye on the weather forecast to avoid unpleasant surprises. Bad weather can be unpredictable at this time of year, and safety must always be the priority. As for the boat, it is good to know that it performed excellently even in 34 kt winds. However, it is true that with such high wind intensity, the 49 hp engine is somewhat limited. In these conditions, sailing skills become crucial in order not to overly lengthen the crossing. Despite the intensity and duration of the crossing, which can last around 28 hours, the trip is a unique and memorable experience that deserves to be experienced at least once. The combination of a robust boat and good sailing technique can turn a challenging crossing into an unforgettable adventure. Definitely a trip that leaves a mark!

The northern area of the Costa Brava is definitely worth a visit. The only downside is the price of buoys in the coves or in Cadaques which is excessive.

Iorana was a lovely boat to sail. For 2006 she was understandably a little tired in some areas (hence the excellent price) but this did not ruin a wonderful October holiday. Dani was simply superb - the best support and advice we have had on any bareboat charter. He provided daily weather analysis and recommendations of the best anchorage, harbours and restaurants, and was determined that we had the best experience possible.

Fabulous. The boat was exactly what we wanted, spacious for 6, seaworthy and fast. The communications with Sebastien were excellent too.

Great boat trip, very easy and quick to arrange after my original boat trip was cancelled with another company. Roger got back straight away and Pau the captain was excellent. The boat was perfect as well. Thank you so much, we will be back.

Our experience with Didac could not have been better 7-9pm 17-May-2025. Didac's boat was beautiful and in fantastic condition, and Didac himself was a wonderful host - from clear and responsive communication ahead of time, to taking us out for a wonderful evening on the day, nothing could have been better. We were a group of 11, and we unanimously agreed that this was the highlight of our long weekend in Barcelona. If I ever find myself in Barcelona again with a similar group, I will certainly be trying to arrange another outing with Didac. If anyone reading this is considering Didac and this boat vs another, I have no doubt it would be a mistake to go elsewhere. Thanks again Didac and all the best, Tom

We rented the boat for our friend’s hen do and it was amazing! Our skipper, Octavio, was really fun! Despite the windy weather, he gave us great options and made sure we still had an incredible time. We managed to go swimming, and to top it all off, he surprised us by playing the saxophone on board! Highly recommend!

Didac was an excellent host. His boat was amazing and it was a 10/10 experience. I would highly recommend using Didac for a trip in Barcelona.

La zona de navegación entre Tarragona y Menorca en septiembre es, sin duda, una experiencia fascinante, pero es esencial estar muy atento al parte meteorológico para evitar sorpresas desagradables. El mal tiempo puede ser impredecible en esta época del año, y la seguridad siempre debe ser la prioridad. En cuanto al barco, es bueno saber que se comportó excelentemente incluso con vientos de 34 kt. Sin embargo, es cierto que con una intensidad de viento tan alta, el motor de 49 hp resulta algo justo. En esas condiciones, la habilidad para navegar con vela se convierte en un aspecto crucial para no alargar excesivamente la travesía. A pesar de la intensidad y la duración de la travesía, que puede rondar las 28 horas, el viaje es una experiencia única y memorable que merece ser vivida al menos una vez. La combinación de un barco robusto y una buena técnica de navegación puede convertir una travesía desafiante en una aventura inolvidable. ¡Definitivamente, un viaje que deja huella!

La zone nord de la Costa Brava vaut vraiment le détour. Seul bemol le prix des bouées dans les criques ou à Cadaques qui est excessif..

We were in the area and it's a great option for renting for a day. If you want more days, it's better to head south and spend the night in another port.
Estuvimos por la zona y para alquilar un día va muy bien. SI quieres más días es mejor tirar para el sur y hacer noche en otro puerto
