About

The place, in context

Benidorm's marine leisure industry launched in 1957 when the first glass-bottom boats began shuttling visitors to the rocky islet sitting 3.5 kilometres offshore. Today that route supports a rotating fleet of watercraft: jet skis capable of 80-kilometre-per-hour sprints, parasail rigs lifting pairs 60 metres above the Mediterranean, and private charter vessels equipped with sound systems and champagne service. Departures run every hour between 10:00 and 16:00 from Paseo de Colón, the promenade that curves beneath the Balcón del Mediterráneo viewpoint. The party boat trip Benidorm model emerged in the early 2000s as Spanish coastal tourism shifted from passive beach stays to active group experiences. Operators combined traditional island transport with onboard entertainment, transforming the 20-minute crossing into a floating venue. By 2015 the sector had split into three tiers: guided jet-ski convoys that circle the island's sea caves, tandem parasail flights launching from reinforced speedboats, and full-service party charters with capacity for twelve guests. Each format shares the same departure window and the same destination—a limestone outcrop crowned with a ruined watchtower dating to 1834. Underwater visibility peaks between 10:00 and 14:00, when sunlight penetrates the shallows surrounding the island's western flank. Snorkellers entering from the small pebble beach report sight lines extending 12 metres in calm conditions, revealing colonies of Posidonia oceanica seagrass and schools of gilt-head bream. The island itself remains uninhabited except for a seasonal restaurant that operates until October. No roads cross its 7-hectare surface; the only access is by private boat or commercial ferry. VIP club-crawl packages merge daytime water sports with coordinated nightlife, shuttling groups through three licensed venues in the old town. These hybrid itineraries reflect Benidorm's broader identity as a dual-purpose resort: a daytime water-sports hub serving northern European tourists and an after-dark entertainment district serving Spanish weekenders. The synergy keeps boats fully booked June through September, with advance reservations opening 90 days ahead of each departure.

Your experience

What a tour day looks like

A step-by-step walkthrough of the visit — what you'll see, how long each stage takes, and the details that matter.

You meet your group at Paseo de Colón, where jet skis idle in numbered slips and parasail crews rig harnesses on reinforced decks. If you've booked the jet-ski convoy, you receive a 10-minute briefing on throttle control and turning radius before straddling a 1,500-cc craft. Your guide accelerates first, carving a wide arc toward the island's northern cliffs. You follow at 60 kilometres per hour, spray stinging your forearms, engine roar drowning conversation. The convoy slows near the sea caves, where you drift through cathedral-height openings in the limestone. Swallows nest in crevices 15 metres overhead. After circling the island you return to shore, 90 minutes elapsed, arms sore from gripping the handlebars. If you've chosen parasailing, the crew straps you into a tandem harness on the boat's aft platform. The winch pays out 150 metres of towline, lifting you smoothly above the wake. At 60 metres altitude Benidorm's twin beach crescents appear in full, hotel towers gleaming white against the sierra backdrop. The flight lasts 12 minutes. Descent is controlled, feet skimming the water once before the crew reels you onto the platform. Private charters depart with champagne already chilled. You anchor 200 metres offshore, swimming ladder deployed, portable speakers playing curated sets. The island's restaurant remains visible across the channel, its terrace umbrellas a line of white dots against the rock.
