Vela's story began in 2022, when we purchased our first boat in Valencia and embarked on an eventful three-day journey sailing it back to Barcelona. This adventure marked the beginning of our venture: to rejuvenate the city's charter industry with fresh energy, exceptional service, and experiences that feel truly special.
Behind Vela Boat Trip are Alessio Bona & Álvaro Fernández, two young true Barcelonians with a shared vision—to create unique, high-end sea experiences that bring together tourists, expats, and locals alike.
At Vela Boat TripBarcelona, we are a passionate team of young locals dedicated to sharing the beauty of our coastline in a way that feels personal and authentic. Unlike large-scale tour operators, we captain the boats ourselves, offering an intimate, slow-paced, high-quality alternative to the mass tourism that has taken over in recent years.
