Setting Sail on a Family Adventure

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I’m always on the lookout for family-friendly activities that offer both fun and a touch of education. When I heard about The Best Boat Trip Lanzarote, I knew it was something I had to experience with my kids. Our journey began with a convenient pick-up near our hotel, whisking us away to the marina of Puerto Calero. The excitement was palpable as we boarded the catamaran, greeted by a friendly crew who made us feel right at home.

The initial part of the trip was all about settling in and enjoying the stunning views of Lanzarote’s volcanic landscape. The crew, ever attentive, provided a quick briefing on safety and boat etiquette, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and secure. As we set sail towards the beautiful Papagayo beaches, the bar opened, offering a selection of juices, beer, and wine. With my kids in tow, we opted for refreshing juices, which were perfect for the warm, sunny day.

The catamaran itself was spacious, with plenty of room for sunbathing on the nets or relaxing in the shaded seating area. The unobstructed views of the sea and coast were breathtaking, and I found myself lost in the beauty of the island, a perfect backdrop for a day of family bonding.

Pirate Adventures and Playful Pirates

One of the highlights of the trip was the crew’s interaction with the kids. They transformed the young ones into little pirates, complete with face paint and bandanas. My children were thrilled, and it was heartwarming to see them so engaged and entertained. The crew’s professionalism was matched by their ability to create a fun and inclusive atmosphere, making every child feel special.

As we anchored near Playa Papagayo, the real adventure began. Lunch was served, featuring a delicious tuna pasta dish with a side salad. The crew was incredibly accommodating, especially for families with specific dietary needs. My son, who is gluten-free, was provided with boiled rice, and they had no issues with us bringing additional gluten-free snacks on board.

After lunch, the kids were eager to explore the water. The catamaran offered a thrilling jet ski ride, which quickly became a favorite activity. The laughter and joy on my children’s faces were priceless as they zipped across the water. Once back on board, they discovered the slide into the sea, and with snorkel masks provided, they were off to explore the underwater world. The water was refreshingly cool, and the kids delighted in spotting various sea creatures.

A Day to Remember

As the day drew to a close, we reluctantly climbed back on board, knowing it was time to head back to Puerto Calero. The journey back was filled with reflections on the day’s adventures, and my children couldn’t stop talking about their pirate escapades and underwater discoveries.

The entire experience was seamless, from the initial booking to the final farewell. The crew’s dedication to ensuring a memorable day for families was evident in every aspect of the trip. From the engaging activities to the delicious lunch and the attentive service, it was clear that The Best Boat Trip Lanzarote truly lived up to its name.

For families seeking a unique and enjoyable day out on the water, this boat trip is a must. It’s a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and family fun, all set against the stunning backdrop of Lanzarote’s coastline. My kids are already asking when we can return, and I have to agree – it’s an experience worth repeating.
