Nautical tourism Spain | Authentic destination wedding experiences guests will love

Are you looking for an intimate and authentic destination wedding experience that guests will love? Find out more about Nautical tourism in today’s feature article.

More and more couples are considering destination weddings for their grand affair, and the pros are vast. Breathtaking photo opportunities are around every corner and what’s more,  depending on location and number of attendees, a wedding abroad can often prove more affordable than staying local. But perhaps one of the best advantages is that destination weddings allow the bridal couple to share in the guest experience, participate more fully in all activities on offer and with it, reconnect with their nearest and dearest in a more genuine way.

The team at Sunshine Weddings Spain knows that a destination wedding in Spain, isn’t just about making sure things run smoothly on the day, rather, it’s also about making sure everyone enjoys an intimate and authentic experience from the moment they arrive to the day they leave by suggesting an array of fun leisure activities, perfect for bonding or forging new friendships for all invited to your fairytale wedding in paradise.

For those getaway nuptials looking to celebrate their dream wedding on the Costa del Sol, a day out boating—easy to organise, affordable and fun guaranteed—is a must.

Today Sunshine Weddings Spain takes an indepth look at nautical tourism with Turismo Marinero.

Just 35km away from Gibraltar (GIB) Airport you can find the serene and unspoiled Spanish beach town of Estepona. Located at the foot of the huge Sierra Bermeja mountains, this old town full of winding cobbled streets and white washed houses offers beautiful blue flag beaches, Spanish cafes, bars and a fishing port, home to Turismo Marinero.

This nautical tourism company offers complementary and sustainable alternatives to artisanal fishing and activities, but always keeping at the forefront of their values the respect to the fishing tradition in the area, a livelihood Esteponeros are are passionate about.

What better way to start your wedding week with your nearest and dearest than with the warmth of the sun, the sea breeze and the sway of the waves making you feel totally relaxed.

Discovering the authentic world of artisanal fishing through guided tours, gastronomic routes, excursions to the sea and educational workshops for young sailors.

The most popular seafaring experience for wedding guests is their special ‘family and friends route’, ideal to chill out for the afternoon while enjoying the sea breeze and pleasures of sailing. What’s more, this route offers the possibility of dolphin watching once out of the harbour area. Observe the dolphins swim freely and peacefully in the water and share with them that unrivalled feeling of liberation at sea, or combine it with a memorable sunset sailing route and enjoy the spectacular sunsets seen from the Estepona marina, with breathtaking views of the Strait of Gibraltar in the distance.

For those feeling a bit more adventurous, an unforgettable day of recreational fishing at sea, with the opportunity to learn from a highly experienced skipper, is also a must, especially when the boat Captain, with 35 years of fishing experience, knows all the best places to fish in Estepona, and on the coast from Gibraltar to Marbella.

This sailing route includes drinks and snacks on board, high quality fishing equipment and all the necessary gear for a memorable day at sea.

For those looking to disconnect with a romantic getaway by boat from sunset to sunrise and experience sleeping under the stars on board of a beautiful boat—away from your wedding guests on this occasion as a perfect way to spend one of your honeymoon nights—sail during the evening hours in the bay of Estepona, where in addition to setting course to the west and seeing some truly spectacular sunsets, the chance of dolphin spotting is also a possibility.

Enjoy an exquisite dinner, exclusively prepared for you and your loved one, and the following morning, a delicious breakfast in the open air as the finishing touch to this truly romantic escape.

For this and other fun related events to enjoy, either before or after the big day, the team at Sunshine Weddings Spain is always at hand to help you with your every need and recommend plenty of fun-filled activities that will guarantee your wedding becomes extra special for everyone.

Note: You are not obligated to foot the bill for any of your wedding party’s activities, but it’s important that you make this as gracefully clear as possible.
