Skippered inflatable boat trips to Isla Grosa and Calblanque

Flippados offers trips in a fast inflatable boat with a skipper along the coast of Cabo de Palos. Routes run across Mediterráneo towards Isla Grosa, El Farallón and the coves around the cape, with swimming stops. People who have tried it mainly talk about speed, laughter and adrenaline.

What the trips are like

This is no gentle cruise: the boat is fast and a skipper takes the helm, so no one in the group needs a licence. The outing usually includes time for swimming and snorkelling in a cove. Destinations along the route include:

  • Isla Grosa
  • El Farallón
  • the coves of Cabo de Palos
  • the Calblanque coast at sunset

For groups and celebrations

The boat is hired by groups and is popular for birthdays or stag and hen parties looking for something livelier than a sightseeing cruise. Book in advance by phone.

The connection with Flippa Boat

Flippados operates alongside Flippa Boat, which runs trips on Mar Menor from La Manga. For other boat trips in the area, see boating in La Manga and Cabo de Palos.
