The subject of food is an important point to keep in mind whenever there is a plan involved, but have you ever wondered what is the most comfortable thing to eat on board a boat?
Cooking on board is not easy and not only because of the movement but because of the size of the kitchen since on a boat, depending on its size, space can be limited, so we have to know that it is the most comfortable thing to do when solving the food theme. Depending on the type of stay and boat our advice varies. We present you a perfect pairing of boat, food and destination, so that you encourage this summer to sail the Mediterranean.
- Afternoon in Barcelona in Catamaran + Healthy menu
If you spend a summer afternoon aboard one of our catamarans, we recommend that you prepare a fresh, light and digestive meal to combat the heat and be able to enjoy some good baths in the Mediterranean. An ideal menu could be a healthy snack accompanied by a variety of delicious salads and a few shots of gazpacho.
As for the pica-pica, you can prepare some wraps, some brusquettes and some veggie crudités to eat with hummus and guacamole. As for salad, we recommend options such as the Caprese salad, which is ideal to prepare on the boat, since you only have to cut tomato slices, fresh mozzarella slices, fresh basil and black olives. The pasta or rice salad combined with chicken or prawns is also a good option when preparing something simple and fresh. For dessert, following the healthy line, you can make a fruit salad with all kinds of summer fruits.
If you fancy an afternoon like this, we recommend our Lagoon 400. This catamaran touched the water for the first time in 2021 and is ready to be released in the summer season. Ideal for you to go on board with friends and enjoy a full Mediterranean afternoon. How do you see yourself premiering a 0km catamaran?
2 peculiarities of this type of boat:
✅ Airy spaces
✅ A lot of stability (for those who get seasick on board 😉)

- Afternoon on the coast of Barcelona sailing on a yacht + paella

A good option to order on board is a Mediterranean menu such as Andalusian squid, mussels and paella. If you fancy this outing, you can also take into account the restaurants in the port where we are (Marina Vela Barcelona), since they have different options.
