Dénia Boat Trip from Valencia — Mussels, Open Bar and a Swim at Sea

A day of boats, sea and good vibes on the Costa Blanca

Picture yourself sailing the crystal-clear water off Dénia, with the Montgó mountain behind you, a tasting of freshly steamed mussels and an open bar on board while good music plays. That’s exactly what this trip offers: the most festive, fun beach plan on the Costa Blanca, with no driving and nothing to worry about.

With ValenciaTribe everything is organised: private coach from Valencia, a coordinator with you, the boat trip with food and drinks included, and the best vibes to enjoy the Mediterranean as a group.

The boat trip: mussels, open bar and a swim at sea

The star of the day is the boat trip around Dénia bay. On board you get a tasting of steamed mussels and an open bar to toast as you sail past the coast, the Montgó and the coves of Les Rotes. The boat stops for a swim in open water, where you can jump in straight from the deck.

It’s as relaxed or as lively as you want: some people come to sunbathe on deck, others to toast and dance. Sea, food and good company — it never fails.

Dénia: the Mediterranean’s food capital

Before or after the boat you’ll have free time to enjoy Dénia, a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy. Its fishing port, its old town at the foot of the castle and its fine sandy beaches make it one of the best destinations on the Alicante coast.

Foodies take note: Dénia red prawns are considered among the best in the world, and arroz a banda is another must. The seafront promenade and port area are perfect for a drink by the sea.
