Unwind After Golf – PLay and Relax on the Water
After a half day on the course, many golfers enjoy unwinding on the water. A private boat tour on our 48ft sailing yacht offers the perfect way to relax after your round.
From Spanish Water, we sail toward the calm turquoise waters of Fuik Bay. While anchored you can swim in the Caribbean Sea and enjoy drinks and tapas while relaxing on the loungers, or unwind in the shaded cockpit.
Relaxing, Private, Scenic and Comfortable
A private boat tour provides exactly that. Instead of large group excursions, you enjoy a calm and personal atmosphere on board - perfect after a day on the course.
