About this experience

Experience one of Barcelona’s most iconic dishes in the most unforgettable setting: a luxury catamaran overlooking the Mediterranean.

Your Paella Masterclass begins as you board at Marina Port Vell, where our crew welcomes you with a drink and guides you to your private sailing space. A professional chef will walk you through each step of preparing an authentic Mediterranean paella — from the selection of ingredients to the final slow-cooking process that gives the dish its rich flavor.

While the chef cooks, you can relax on deck, enjoy the views of Barcelona’s skyline, and sip on refreshing drinks. Once the paella is ready, sit down to enjoy your creation on board, paired with cava, wine, or soft drinks.

This experience blends local gastronomy, sea views, and a relaxed, intimate atmosphere — perfect for couples, families, or small groups looking for a unique culinary moment at sea.
