If you want a Lobos Island day without the chaos, this private sail is it. You pick the time and the pace, and the setup is built for snorkeling and paddling right from the boat.

On top of that, I like the “just you and your group” feel (it’s truly private), and I love that the water toys and drinks are part of the package. One thing to keep in mind: free hotel pickup only covers the Corralejo area, so plan to start at the meeting point if you’re staying elsewhere.

Key things I’d zero in on

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Key things I’d zero in on

  • Private Lagoon 400 catamaran: max comfort, and your group controls the day’s rhythm
  • Snorkeling + kayaking + paddle boards are included, so you’re not scrambling for gear
  • Drinks included (soft drinks, beer, white/red wine, water, coffee, tea) for a no-stress sail
  • Underwater photographs and free souvenir photos: built-in mementos without the guessing game
  • Bring your own food or add lunch from the onboard à la carte options

Why a Lagoon 400 private catamaran to Lobos makes sense

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Why a Lagoon 400 private catamaran to Lobos makes sense
A private catamaran day is one of those plans that sounds fancy, but it’s really practical. Lobos is the kind of place that works best when you’re not fighting for space, dropping anchor on someone else’s schedule, or waiting your turn for the water.

With the Lagoon 400 setup, you’re getting a stable, comfortable platform for lounging, swimming, and gear-based fun like snorkeling and kayaking. That matters, because a catamaran day isn’t only about the destination. It’s about how easy the whole afternoon feels once you’re on the water.

I also like the flexibility built into the experience. You can customize the trip length (the day runs roughly 4 to 8 hours) and shape the itinerary to match what you actually want to do: more time in the water, more time relaxing, or a stronger focus on Lobos itself.

Price and what you’re really paying for (up to 4 people)

The price is listed as $905.09 per group, up to 4. On paper, it might look high compared to group tours. In real terms, it can be good value if you’re traveling as a small group who would otherwise pay for separate tickets, taxis, and add-ons.

Here’s what helps justify the cost:

  • It’s private (only your group on board)
  • You get multiple water activities included: snorkeling plus 2 paddle boards, 2 single kayaks, and 2 double kayaks
  • Drinks are included, including beer and wine, plus coffee and tea
  • Underwater photographs and souvenir photos are included, which can be a costly add-on elsewhere

Also, you get the option to bring your own food. That’s a big money-saver if you’re the type who likes picnic logic, not restaurant logic. And if you prefer the easy route, lunch can be added via onboard à la carte menus.

Starting your day in Corralejo: meeting point and how pickup works

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Starting your day in Corralejo: meeting point and how pickup works
The meeting point is at Fuerteventura Dune Buggy Tours Corralejo, Av. Juan Carlos I, 74, 35660 Corralejo. The activity ends back at the same meeting point.

Pickup is available, but only within the Corralejo area. After you send your accommodation info, the pickup point is confirmed. If you’re staying outside Corralejo, you should expect to meet at the listed location instead.

One more practical note: it’s described as near public transportation. That helps if you don’t want to rely on taxis for a half-day plan.

Boarding the Lagoon 400: comfort + space for your whole plan

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Boarding the Lagoon 400: comfort + space for your whole plan
This isn’t just a boat ride. It’s a catamaran built for staying onboard comfortably between water activities. Lagoons are known for stability and comfort, which is exactly what you want when you’re switching between lounging, snorkeling, and getting in and out for kayaking.

You also get onboard tools that make the day feel complete:

  • A setup that supports snorkeling and paddleboarding/kayaking
  • Tableware if you bring food (this is huge for avoiding “where do we put everything?” problems)
  • Enough on-board structure to support photos—because you can’t exactly ask for underwater shots when you’re scrambling around with a dry bag

And yes, there’s a “celebration” vibe here. The boat size and comfort make it a smart pick for birthdays, stag/hen groups, and couples who want something more romantic than a crowded day trip.

Lobos Island time: snorkeling, swimming, and kayaking at your pace

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Lobos Island time: snorkeling, swimming, and kayaking at your pace
The experience is centered on time with Lobos Island, and your day is designed for water time, not just sightseeing from the deck. You can plan your balance: spend more time snorkeling, hop between kayaks and paddle boards, or keep it simple with swimming breaks.

What’s included matters here:

  • Snorkeling is included (listed as TrollingSnorkelling)
  • 2 paddle boards
  • 2 single kayaks and 2 double kayaks

That combo is good because it fits different energy levels. If one person wants quiet snorkeling and another wants motion, everyone can stay happy without waiting around.

I’ll also mention something practical from real-world experience planning: with included water toys, you’ll use them more. When gear is part of the package, you don’t end up thinking you should have booked something else—you just do the water part of the day.

Crew support can make a difference too. Some groups have praised crew members such as Frank and Pierre for being helpful and making snorkeling a smoother, more enjoyable experience—especially if you’re not a seasoned water activity person.

Corralejo food and lunch options: bring your own or go à la carte

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Corralejo food and lunch options: bring your own or go à la carte
Food on a boat can be either a relief or a headache. Here, you get both approaches, which is great.

You can bring your own food, and the catamaran is equipped with tableware. That’s a simple win for groups who want control over what they eat and how much they want to spend.

Alternatively, lunch can be ordered as an extra choice from two à la carte menus. If your group wants specific drink and snack options beyond what’s included, you can request a quote to add what you want.

My practical take: if you’re visiting in a warmer part of the day, having your own food can be the easiest option. But if you’d rather focus on the water and let someone else handle meal decisions, the à la carte lunch option keeps the day low-effort.

Drinks included: the part that makes the sail feel like a getaway

Included drinks are one of the best “hidden value” pieces of this experience. You get:

  • soft drinks
  • beer
  • white and red wine
  • water
  • coffee and tea

That means you don’t have to think about cash, purchases, or a mid-trip walk to find something to drink. It also helps you keep the mood right: you’re not coming back to the dock thirsty and annoyed because your day was “almost fun.”

If your group includes non-drinkers, you still get the coffee/tea and soft drink options, so it’s not an all-or-nothing setup.

Photos: underwater shots plus free souvenir memories

Boat days can turn into a series of iPhone videos and then… nothing. This experience builds in photos, which is a smarter approach than hoping for perfect shots.

You get:

  • underwater photographs included
  • free souvenir photographs included in the trips

So you can actually document the snorkeling/kayaking moments without needing to coordinate everyone’s timing. It’s especially helpful if you’re traveling with people who aren’t into “camera duty.”

The photos element is also one reason this feels like more than a simple transport day. It gives the day a “keepsake” layer, which makes a difference when you’re booking something private and spendy.

How long should you choose: 4 hours vs closer to 8

The trip duration is described as approximately 4 to 8 hours. In other words, you’re not locked into a short, rushed window.

If you’re new to snorkeling or you want a calmer pace, lean toward the longer end. More time means fewer transitions and more chances to actually enjoy the water activities instead of squeezing them in between bites of food and photo stops.

If your group has limited time and just wants the highlights—snorkel once, paddle board for a bit, grab drinks, and enjoy Lobos from the boat—around 4 hours can work well.

Either way, the customization is the real point: choose the day length that matches your energy, not the one that matches someone else’s agenda.

Who this Lobos Island Lagoon 400 trip fits best

This is a strong match if you:

  • want a private day without sharing the boat with strangers
  • are traveling as a small group (up to 4)
  • care about water time and want multiple included activities instead of one scheduled activity
  • want a celebration feel—birthdays, stag/hen parties, romantic outings
  • like having food options that fit either picnic-style or lunch-by-menu

It also makes sense if you enjoy planning your day. Since you can tailor the length and itinerary, you don’t have to pretend you’re fine with a rigid schedule.

Kids can join, but they must be accompanied by an adult. Most travelers can participate, and the overall setup is designed for general participant comfort—just plan to bring swim gear and be ready for water time.

Things to consider before you book

Here are the practical “think twice” points that help you avoid disappointment:

  • Pickup limits: Free hotel transfer is only in the Corralejo area. If you’re elsewhere, meet at the listed location.
  • Bring-your-own vs lunch planning: You can bring your own food and use the onboard tableware, but if you want à la carte lunch, that’s an extra decision point.
  • Group size matters: It’s priced per group up to 4. If you’re traveling solo or as a duo, you might consider whether the private price still feels worth it for the inclusions.
  • Water-activity pace: The day is built around snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boards. If your group prefers mostly scenic cruising with minimal water time, this experience may feel like it’s offering more than you’ll use.

Should you book this private Lagoon 400 Lobos catamaran?

I’d book it if you want a day that feels controlled, comfortable, and activity-first. The combination of private boat, included water gear, drinks, and photos makes it easier to justify spending more than on a standard group tour.

I’d think twice if you need pickup outside Corralejo, or if your idea of a good day is mostly staying dry and sightseeing without getting in the water. In that case, you might be paying for inclusions you won’t use.

But if your group is ready for snorkeling, swimming, and kayaking—plus the comfort of a Lagoon 400—this is the kind of plan that turns into a story you’ll actually remember, not just a date on a calendar.
