Review of Barcelona’s one-hour catamaran cruise, with skyline views, sunset music, onboard drinks, family features, and practical tips.
“The live music was excellent. Great ambiance and opportunity to take fabulous photos. Their customer service is also excellent. They were super accommodating when we had to suddenly change dates for our trip. The only downside was that we had expectations that someone would be talking to us and providing guiding information as we went, but there wasn't.

“Our catamaran cruise was as good as conditions allowed. Unfortunately, on our cruise day the weather wasn’t good and it wasn’t safe outside of the harbor so we only got to do a little jog out of the harbor. My son loved sitting on the nets getting splashed while freezing himself out. Despite the weather, we had a great time! Cristian and Albert (I think that was his name) were awesome! Super informative and fun! I want to come back to Barcelona and do it again!”
