Cadaqués & Cap de Creus catamaran tour with underwater views

You watch the seabed from inside the boat, not from above it.

This three-hour tour sails from Roses or Santa Margarita through Cap de Creus Natural Park aboard a glass-bottomed catamaran, stopping at a remote cove to view the underwater landscape through the hull. The route continues to Tamariu Cave before finishing with an hour in Cadaqués, the coastal town associated with Salvador Dalí. An audio guide in English, Spanish, French and German is included.

• Continue sailing to Tamariu Cave
• Visit Cadaqués for one hour

The experience

The glass-bottomed catamaran is the whole point. Instead of snorkeling or peering down from the surface, you sit inside the boat and look straight down through the transparent hull at the seabed as it passes beneath you. The tour stops in what the operator calls the best wild cove in the area: a spot inside Cap de Creus Natural Park where the water is clear enough to see the rocky bottom and whatever moves across it. No swimming required, no gear to manage, just the view.

From there the boat follows the coast toward Tamariu Cave, a sea cave carved into the cliffs that marks another stop on the route. Then you arrive in Cadaqués for a full hour on foot. The town sits on a small peninsula with narrow streets and a harbor. It's the place Dalí lived and painted, though the operator leaves the sightseeing to you. An audio guide in English, Spanish, French or German plays throughout, so you get context for what you're passing without needing a live narrator.

The tour runs three hours total. You can board from either Roses Center or Santa Margarita depending on which departure suits your schedule. There's a restroom on board, and the operator notes the boat works for all fitness levels: infants can travel in a stroller, and service animals are welcome.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (4 to 11 years); Infant (under 4): free.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What exactly do you see through the glass bottom of the catamaran?

The seabed and the underwater landscape of Cap de Creus Natural Park. The boat stops in a cove where the water is clear enough to see the rocky bottom from inside the hull. What lives or moves there depends on the day and the season, but the operator describes it as the best wild cove in the area for this view.

How much time do you spend in Cadaqués itself?

One hour. You walk around the town on your own. The audio guide provides context, but there's no organized tour of the streets or the sites associated with Dalí.

Where does the boat depart from?

You choose between Roses Center and Santa Margarita when you book. Both are departure points for the same three-hour route.

Is there a guide on the boat, or do you navigate on your own?

An audio guide in English, Spanish, French or German plays throughout the tour, so you hear information about what you're seeing without a live guide on board.

What is Tamariu Cave?

A sea cave carved into the cliffs along the Cap de Creus coast. The boat stops there as part of the route between the underwater viewing cove and Cadaqués.
