Overview

What sets your rent apart?
On board the sailboat Assol, you will live much more than a boat ride: we offer you an intimate and authentic sailing experience. Unlike the crowded tours, here you will enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with a maximum of 6 people, accompanied by an expert crew that will guide you to sail whenever the wind allows. During the tour you will have unparalleled views of the Rock of Gibraltar, see dolphins and other marine species at large and get up close and personal with the fascinating maritime traffic of the Strait. In addition, the flexibility to choose between the Bay of Algeciras or the Strait of Gibraltar, and disembarkation options at La Alcaidesa or return to Sotogrande, make each crossing unique and personalized. Ideal for those looking to disconnect, connect with nature and live the sea for real.

What to expect

  1. La Alcaidesa
    Pass by
    La Alcaidesa & Playa de la Hacienda (30-40 minutes)

    We start our tour by coasting quietly in front of the beaches of La Alcaidesa and La Hacienda, north of La Linea. These calm waters offer a spectacular panoramic view of the coastline, perfect for enjoying a drink on board as we get away from the bustle. Travellers will be able to gaze at the gentle hills that flow into almost unspoilt beaches, hopefully even spotting dolphins at the start of the journey.
  2. Playa de la Atunara
    Pass by
    As we skirt the coast, we pass the picturesque seafaring district of La Atunara, with its colored boats and traditional atmosphere. Here you can see fishing history and local culture, and you can see the contrast between the urban coastline of La Linea and the greatness of the open ocean. The aroma of salt and tradition accompanies this part of the journey, where we usually sail somewhat closer to the coast.
  3. Gibraltar Upper Rock Nature Reserve
    Pass by
    We sail under the imposing silhouette of the Rock of Gibraltar, an unforgettable experience from the sea. This part of the tour offers the best views for unique photographs of the famous rocky promontory from its east face. You will be able to observe the marine life that is concentrated near the coast of the Rock and, if conditions permit, we will see the change of color of the water as we approach the Strait.
  4. Sikorski Memorial
    Pass by
    We made a scenic roundabout around Punta Europa, the southernmost point of the Rock. From here the Strait of Gibraltar opens up before us, with Africa at the bottom on clear days. This is one of the magical moments of the tour, where sea, wind and history combine. In addition to lighthouses and fortresses, it is a regular spot for migratory and cetacean birds, depending on season.
  5. Algeciras
    Pass by
    We enter the stunning Bay of Algeciras, sailing along an area with fascinating maritime activity. From sailboats to large freighters, this area offers a unique insight into the region’s port dynamism. However, there are also quiet stretches where nature resumes the limelight, and where the silence of the sailboat connects you to the sea. Here we enjoy a last relaxed stretch before embarking on the way back.
