ARCHIVED - Boat trips from La Manga with Solaz Lines

Boat trips from La Manga

Solaz Lines have been in operation since 1988 and operate 2 boats, running inexpensive trips in La Manga and from Mazarrón.

During the summer months they operate boat trips on a regular schedule and the craft are available for private hire the rest of the year, for groups from 10 to 30 people, providing a perfect venue for parties, celebrations or fundraising events.

Refreshments are available for sale on board and the boats have full toilet facilities.

The trip includes dual language commentary and in some cases, stop-offs for swimming, so don´t forget to bring a towel if you fancy a dip.

Please note, there are minimum departure numbers of 6 adults on most of these trips,so the boat can refuse to leave port if there are insufficient participants to warrant the petrol cost. There is no prior booking, just turn up at the port.
