Speedboat Charter Marbella — Fast Coastal Hop from Puerto Banús

Looking for a speedboat hire in Marbella? Our Puerto Banús speedboat takes up to 6 guests on short, fast coastal charters along the Costa del Sol. Skipper included, instant booking available.

Sometimes a speedboat charter in Marbella is exactly what you need — a fast, direct hit of Mediterranean coastline, cold drink in hand, spray in the air, with a professional skipper at the helm and no pretension about it. Not every day on the water needs to be a full-day superyacht experience. Sometimes two or three hours at speed along the Costa del Sol is the whole point.

The BoatHire24 speedboat option from Puerto Banús delivers exactly that — up to 6 guests, a licensed skipper, and the kind of simple, immediate joy of being on the water that the larger charter boats sometimes obscure behind their own complexity.

What a speedboat charter covers

In a 2-hour speedboat charter from Puerto Banús, a typical route might run west along the Marbella coastline past the Puente Romano beach, the Marbella Club, and the golden-mile villas to a swimming anchor east of Estepona before returning. In a 3-hour charter, you can reach the cleaner water east of Marbella toward Cabopino, where the sand dunes and lighthouse make for an unusual backdrop for a swim stop.

The speedboat is faster than the comparable motor yachts in its size class, which means more range in any given charter duration and more flexibility in where you anchor and what you see.

Water sports

The speedboat is configured for towing activities — banana rides and inflatable donut runs are available on request. For small groups (2–4) where watersports are a significant part of the plan, the speedboat-plus-tow-toys combination is an effective and economical format compared to bringing a larger motor yacht to a swimming anchor.

Who books a speedboat charter?

The speedboat format attracts small groups and couples who want an active, sporty experience rather than a social occasion; repeat visitors to Marbella who've done the motor-yacht charter and want something quicker and more intimate; and time-limited guests staying only one or two nights who want to get on the water without the commitment of a full-day booking.

It's also a popular choice for local residents — people who live on the Costa del Sol and want an occasional evening or afternoon on the water without chartering a boat large enough for a party they're not having.

Charter pricing

Speedboat pricing is on request — contact via WhatsApp with your preferred date, group size, and duration. Typical formats are 2-hour and 3-hour charters. Same-day bookings are often available outside peak weekends in July and August.

Every speedboat charter includes the licensed skipper, drinks (water, soft drinks, beer, white wine, cava), light snacks, insurance, and VAT. Fuel is included. The only thing you need to bring is sunscreen and a towel.
