Set sail from Corralejo in comfort. This private Lagoon 400 trip to Lobos Island gives your group a flexible day on the water, with snorkeling, swimming, kayaking, paddle boards, drinks, and underwater photos included. I especially like the private setting, since your group does not share the boat with strangers, and the chance to adjust the trip between roughly four and eight hours. The main drawback is the price: $905.09 per group is fair for four people, but expensive for a couple or a smaller party.

I also like the practical setup. You can bring your own food, use the catamaran’s tableware, or order one of two extra lunch menus. The crew members Frank and Pierre earned warm praise for being friendly and helpful, including during a birthday outing. You should still confirm the exact duration, food arrangements, and pickup point before setting off, since the advertised time range is broad.

Why a private Lagoon 400 changes the day

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Why a private Lagoon 400 changes the day

The boat is a Lagoon 400 catamaran, part of a well-regarded catamaran brand. Its twin-hull design is intended to give you a stable, comfortable ride, which matters when you want a calm day rather than a white-knuckle boat trip.

A private boat also changes the social feel. You can spend the day with your own small group instead of following the pace of a large shared excursion. That makes this a natural choice for a birthday, anniversary, family outing, stag or hen party, or a quiet day for two.

The capacity is up to four people. That is a good size for personal service and easy conversation, but it also shapes the value. Four people splitting the $905.09 group price pay about $226.27 each. For two people, the same boat becomes a much bigger expense.

I would look at this as a private charter, not simply a sightseeing cruise. You are paying for space, privacy, flexible timing, water equipment, drinks, and the chance to shape the day around your group.

Leaving Corralejo for Lobos Island

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Leaving Corralejo for Lobos Island

The meeting point is at Fuerteventura Dune Buggy Tours, Av. Juan Carlos I, 74, in Corralejo. The trip ends back at the same meeting point. If you are staying in Corralejo, free pickup is available from designated points, but you need to give the operator your accommodation information so the pickup location can be confirmed.

Corralejo is a practical starting point for a boat trip to Lobos Island. The exact cruise route and time spent near the island can vary because the trip is private and can be arranged for roughly four to eight hours. That flexibility is useful, but you should ask what your chosen sailing includes before booking.

Once aboard, you have the sort of open-air setting that makes a boat day feel different from a standard shore excursion. The catamaran is designed for comfort, and the stable platform gives you room to move between relaxing, eating, and water activities.

The destination itself is Lobos Island, but the pleasure of the outing is also the time spent on the water. You get a private base for the day, rather than simply being dropped at a beach and collected later.

Snorkeling, swimming, and time in the water

The strongest part of the package is the number of activities already provided. Snorkeling equipment is included, so you do not need to arrange a separate rental. The trip also includes two paddle boards, two single kayaks, and two double kayaks.

That gives your group several ways to use the stop near Lobos Island. You can snorkel, swim, paddle standing up, or take a kayak out with a companion. If one person wants a quiet break while others go kayaking, the boat gives you a comfortable place to return to.

The equipment list works especially well for four people. Two double kayaks can carry the whole group, while the single kayaks give you another option. The two paddle boards add variety, although the supplied information does not specify how long each activity lasts or whether the crew provides formal instruction.

Underwater photographs are included. This is a useful touch because it gives you a keepsake beyond ordinary phone pictures, especially during the snorkeling portion. Since the exact number and delivery method of the photographs are not stated, I would ask how you receive them before departure.

The tour information also lists trolling alongside snorkeling, but it does not explain the trolling setup or how that activity fits into the schedule. If fishing is important to you, confirm the details directly rather than assuming it is a major part of the trip.

Food and drinks aboard the catamaran

The boat has tableware, so you can bring your own food and eat aboard without needing to pack plates or serving items. That is a useful advantage for families and groups with particular tastes.

You can also order lunch as an extra. Two à la carte menus are available, and the operator can provide a quote if you want different food or drinks. This makes the outing more adaptable than a fixed meal package, but the lunch cost is not included in the $905.09 price.

Included drinks are:

  • Soft drinks
  • Beer
  • White wine
  • Red wine
  • Water
  • Coffee
  • Tea

The drinks list is generous for a private half-day or full-day outing. It also means you can keep the food simple and bring your own picnic while relying on the boat for beverages. If you want a particular drink, special meal, or a larger menu, ask for the extra cost ahead of time.

For a birthday or celebration, the food arrangement may be one of the most important details to settle early. The crew has already handled a birthday outing praised for friendly help, but the supplied information does not state whether decorations, cake, or special setup are available.

The crew and the mood on board

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - The crew and the mood on board

Frank and Pierre were singled out for being kind and helpful during a birthday trip, and that detail matters. On a private charter, the crew can shape the whole day. Friendly support is especially valuable when your group is choosing between snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, eating, and simply relaxing.

The operation is offered in English. If you are arranging a private celebration, tell the operator what matters most to you before the day begins. You may want more time for water activities, a slower meal, or a particular type of celebration.

The high rating, 4.9 out of 5 from 78 reviews, and recommendation level of 99 percent point to a consistently strong experience. Those numbers do not remove the need to check the details, especially the duration and extras, but they support the idea that the service and overall outing are reliable.

The best match here is a group that values personal attention. If you prefer a low-cost shared boat with a fixed timetable, this will probably feel too expensive. If you want your own space and a flexible day, the private format is the main reason to consider it.

Four hours or eight hours?

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Four hours or eight hours?

The experience is advertised at approximately four to eight hours, while the detailed trip schedule lists a four-hour outing. Treat four hours as the clearest baseline and confirm the longer option if you want a full day.

A four-hour trip makes sense if you want a focused cruise, some time near Lobos Island, a swim, and a little snorkeling or kayaking. It also limits the time you spend at sea, which may suit children or anyone who prefers a shorter outing.

An eight-hour version would give your group more room to spread out the activities, eat aboard, take breaks, and enjoy the boat without rushing. The supplied details do not state the exact route, additional stops, or extra cost for the longer duration, so those points need confirmation.

This is one area where the private format helps. Your group is not tied to the needs of a large boatload of people. Still, flexibility only has value if you agree on the plan before departure.

Who will get the most from this trip?

I would recommend this outing most strongly to four-person groups. At the full group price, the cost becomes easier to justify, and four people can make good use of the kayaks and paddle boards.

It also suits people marking an occasion. Birthdays, anniversaries, stag parties, hen parties, and family celebrations all benefit from having the boat to themselves. The positive birthday experience involving Frank and Pierre suggests that the crew is comfortable helping make a special day feel personal.

Couples can enjoy it too, especially if privacy matters more than low cost. But two people will pay the same group rate, so you should decide if a private catamaran is worth that premium.

Most people can participate, and children must be accompanied by an adult. The activity is near public transportation, but the free pickup in Corralejo is the easier option if your accommodation is in the area.

Price, value, and what is not included

Private Catamaran trips to Lobos Island in Lagoon 400 - Price, value, and what is not included

The price is $905.09 per group of up to four people. That includes the private catamaran, the listed water equipment, drinks, underwater photographs, and hotel transfer within the Corralejo area.

For four people, the price is about $226.27 per person. That is not a budget excursion, but it is more reasonable when you count the private boat, several water activities, drinks, and the flexibility to choose the trip length.

For one or two people, the calculation is less favorable. You still receive the same private boat, but you have fewer people to share the fixed cost. I would compare this with shared boat trips in Corralejo if keeping the price down is your priority.

Lunch is extra. Any special food or drink request may also cost more. The trip includes tableware, so bringing your own food can help control the final price.

Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time. Changes made within 24 hours are not accepted, and cancellations inside that window are not refunded. Confirmation is sent within 48 hours of booking, subject to availability.

Practical booking advice before you go

Give the operator your accommodation details after booking so the Corralejo pickup point can be confirmed. Do not assume every hotel has direct door-to-door service, since the pickup information refers to designated points in the area.

Ask these questions before the trip:

  • Is your booking for four hours or a longer option?
  • What route and time near Lobos Island are planned?
  • What is the cost of lunch or special food?
  • How are the underwater photos delivered?
  • Is trolling part of your selected trip, and what does it include?
  • What time and location should you use for pickup?

These questions are not signs of overplanning. They help you match the charter to your group. A private boat is most useful when the schedule reflects what you actually want to do.

Should you book this Lobos Island catamaran?

Book it if you want a private, flexible day on a stable Lagoon catamaran and can fill most of the four-person capacity. The combination of kayaking, paddle boards, snorkeling, swimming, drinks, and underwater photographs gives you plenty to do, while the private setup makes the outing suitable for birthdays and other celebrations.

Think twice if your main goal is the lowest possible price, or if you are booking for only one or two people. Also confirm the exact duration and any lunch costs before paying.

For a small group that values privacy more than bargain pricing, this is a strong choice from Corralejo. The high rating, warm feedback about Frank and Pierre, and generous onboard inclusions make the price easier to understand. Just make sure the schedule and extras are clear before you set sail.
