Tips & Advice

  • Book your tickets in advance, as this popular Christmas experience often sells out quickly.
  • Arrive at the Tinglado nº2 of Marina de Valencia at least 15-20 minutes before your scheduled departure time.
  • Encourage children to bring their letters for Santa, or they can write them on board.
  • Dress in layers, as it can be cooler on the water, even in warmer months.
  • Keep an eye out for the Grinch; he might try to steal the Christmas spirit, but your magic can help save the day!
