Christmas

Come and sail with Santa Claus and the Grinch this Christmas.

La Marina once again welcomes the Christmas Boat, which celebrates its 6th anniversary and has established itself as one of the most popular family experiences in Valencia.

You can hop on board from 5 December to 4 January next to Tinglado No. 2 and the Clock Building and sail alongside Santa Claus and the Grinch by getting your ticket now.

What is the voyage like?

This activity takes place on a boat that is transformed for the occasion with spectacular Christmas decorations.

During the experience, you will find a themed area recreating Santa Claus's home.

Here, children can hand over their Christmas letters, take photos with Santa and his elf, and then continue the adventure aboard the Grinch's Boat.

The Grinch will show you the mischievous side of Christmas as he takes you on a tour of his entire boat, including his cave!

And yes, there's even more.

Afterwards, you can enjoy a 20-minute cruise around Valencia's harbour to admire the lights from the water and soak up the festive atmosphere.

The Christmas Boat is waiting for you!
