How to Prepare for a Hen Do Boat Party in Marbella

A guide for sun, sea and unforgettable vibes — the smart way.

Why a Boat Party in Marbella Is a Must-Do for Your Hen Do

There’s something magical about being out at sea with your best friends, music playing, and cava flowing. A boat party in Marbella offers a level of freedom and celebration that’s hard to match. With the sun overhead, the breeze in your hair, and the Mediterranean sparkling all around, it’s the perfect way to honour your bride-to-be in style.

Our private charters come with everything you need: premium drinks, great music, cheeky butlers, and views that make every photo look like a postcard. It’s an experience that blends luxury, fun, and connection — and it’s quickly becoming the must-do activity for hen dos in Marbella.

What to Expect Onboard (And Why It’s Epic)

Your boat party typically lasts 2 hours and includes a private yacht, captain and crew, cava, beer, soft drinks, and a powerful sound system ready for your favourite tunes. Some groups choose to add a professional DJ, live saxophonist, or even a cheeky strip show to turn things up a notch.

With space to dance, sunbathe, and toast under the sun, the energy is unmatched. Whether you’re keeping it classy or going all out, it’s your party — your way.

Your Boat Party Survival Kit 🧴🍃⛱

1. Anti-Nausea Tablets or Ginger Pills

Even if you feel fine on land, remember: boats move — and some days the sea is calmer than others. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's wise to prepare. You can find ginger tablets or anti-nausea meds at any local pharmacy in Marbella. Motion sickness bracelets are also a great non-medicated option. Better to bring them just in case — they can make the difference between enjoying the ride or counting the minutes till it’s over.

2. Sunscreen & Sunglasses

The Spanish sun doesn’t play. Apply high-factor sunscreen before getting onboard, and reapply if you’re out for more than 90 minutes. Sunglasses are also essential — not only for UV protection, but for iconic boat party photos.

Pro tip: Your cheeky butler can help you apply sunscreen (yes, really). Just ask — he's there to take care of the group and keep everyone protected and glowing.

3. Hydration: Your Cheeky Butler’s Got You 💦

Yes, he’s there to pour the cava and entertain — but he’s also your hydration hero. Let your butler help keep everyone refreshed with water, bubbly and cheeky encouragement. Staying hydrated keeps your vibe high and your head clear.

4. Swimwear & Cover-Up

Some boat experiences include a swimming stop. Bring your bikini, a towel, and something cute to throw over it — like a light kimono or oversized shirt. It keeps you comfortable (and stylish) post-dip.

5. Snacks (If Not Included)

Depending on the package, food may or may not be included. Check beforehand and pack something light just in case — fruit, crackers or protein bars work great. You’ll thank yourself if you started partying early.

Tips to Keep the Vibe High & the Drama Low

• Eat a light meal before boarding: especially if cava is flowing. No one wants a dizzy bride!

• Stick to one type of drink: switching between cocktails and bubbly can backfire quickly at sea.

• Stay together: especially when returning to the marina. Boats can get lively — keep track of each other.

• Secure your phone: a floating iPhone isn’t a cute memory. Bring a waterproof pouch or assign one person as the photo queen.

• Let the DJ guide the mood: or agree on a playlist in advance. Good music = good memories.

Bonus Tip: Add a DJ 

One small upgrade can make a massive difference. A live DJ can elevate the energy from “fun” to “legendary.” Whether you’re dancing to Ibiza anthems or sipping sangria to sunset jazz, music sets the tone — and creates memories you’ll never forget.
