Booked onto a daytime party boat in a sunny destination?
Before the event, make sure you know what’s included in your Magaluf Boat Party – including safety briefings, drink policy, emergency procedures and meeting points for your group.
Essential safety tips
Here are our best safety tips to keep in mind ahead of your excursion.
Check the weather
Chances are the sun will be blazing down if you’re partying in one of our overseas locations, so keep an eye on predicted temperatures so you can come prepared with the right clothing and essentials to protect yourself from those rays.
Find the right yacht party operator
A good party boat company will make sure the vessel is equipped with a first aid kit, life jackets, fire extinguishers, and other must-haves.
Drink responsibly
It can be easy to get carried away when the playlist is lit and the sun is beating down on your boat, but drinking alcohol responsibly is the best way to have the most amazing experience.
After all, you want to remember all the fun you had, so getting too messy is not the one!
If you’re planning to hydrate between sessions, combining your itinerary with a Tenerife Boat Party gives you plenty of opportunity to enjoy the sun, music and refreshing swims while pacing drinks safely.
Pro Tip: A daytime Barcelona Boat Party gives you a controlled environment with professional crew and clear safety instructions before your night out.
Stay hydrated
The perfect boat experience includes sun, tunes, food and drinks, good vibes – and plenty of water! It’s doubly important to stay hydrated in the sun when you’re drinking alcohol, so don’t forget to include regular water breaks on your itinerary for the day.
Pack sunscreen
Bring along sun protection and remember to keep applying it at regular intervals on your party cruise, especially after you’ve been in the water. You want to leave with memories, not sunburn!
Swim safely
Many of our yacht parties include swim stops in THE most insane locations.
Always swim safely and know your limits if you’ve been drinking alcohol.
Leave valuables
You’ll want to bring a bag along to make sure you have all the essentials you need for the best party experience, but leave the valuables locked in your hotel safe to avoid misplacing something expensive or important while you’re going back and forth to the bar and in and out of the sea!
When you’re out with friends, experiences like the Ibiza Boat Party provide structured environments where groups stay together and safety briefings are standard before departure.
Boat party checklist: what to bring
Here’s what to bring on a boat party for total safety and enjoyment:
- Sunscreen
- Swimsuit
- Hat or cap
- Cover-up
- Fan
- Towel
- Small bag
- Cash or card/ApplePay
What to wear
For a party in a sunny holiday destination, wearing a swimsuit or swim shorts is a must.
After all, unless you fancy skinny dipping you don’t want to drop anchor at a stunning swim stop and get serious fomo as your shipmates dive in to cool down!
Complete your fit with your best party look – shorts, dresses, skirts, whatever your vibe is. Just don’t forget your cover-up to protect your shoulders from that gorgeous sunshine!
Always read the safety guidelines when booking a Split Boat Party – knowing where life jackets, crew stations and first-aid kits are located makes your day safer and more fun.
For your footwear, we recommend sliders, Crocs or flip flops so you can slip them on and off easily and not worry if they get wet.
