Superyacht charter in Spain by the numbers: cities and day rates

Spain has 353 listings of yachts of 24–61 m (79–200 ft) in the GetBoat catalogue, and more than a third of them are in one place. Ibiza accounts for 128 listings, or 36.3% of the Spanish total. Palma de Mallorca follows with 67 and Barcelona with 27; the three cities together hold 222 listings, 62.9% of Spain's 24 m+ supply. Stated day rates differ as well: the median in Ibiza is €7,188 per day, against €4,650 in Palma de Mallorca and €3,953 in Barcelona.

Every figure in this article comes from listings visible on GetBoat, counted on 5 October 2026, with listings held by four third-party marketplace accounts excluded. They describe what is listed and, where a listing states a day rate, what it asks: a snapshot of supply on one date. This article counts 353 Spanish listings with a stated length of 79–200 ft, whether or not they state a day rate. Of those, 144 state a day rate in euros after the outlier rule set out under "How we measured" (146 before it).

Where Spain's 24 m+ yachts are listed, city by city

The table covers every Spanish city with at least ten listings of 24 m+ (79–200 ft). A median day rate appears only where ten or more listings in that city state a day rate in euros.

How to read the table. "With a day rate" is the number of 24 m+ listings in that city with a stated day rate in euros, counted after the outlier rule set out under "How we measured". The same applies to the tables below. Only those listings feed the median day rate. Where fewer than ten listings state a day rate, the cell shows "—". Listings that name only the country count towards Spain's 353 and sit in no city row; the number is given under "How we measured".

Ibiza leads on two measures. It has the most listings of 24 m+ in absolute terms and the highest share of such listings among the cities in the table: 128 of its 1,910 listings, or 6.7%, are 24 m+ (79–200 ft). Barcelona's share is 5.7% (27 of 474) and Palma de Mallorca's is 5.2% (67 of 1,277). Torrevieja and Marbella each have 10 listings of 24 m+; 8 in Torrevieja and 5 in Marbella state a day rate, too few for a median in either city.

The listed fleets in Ibiza and Palma de Mallorca are of similar age. The median build year of 24 m+ yachts is 2007 in Ibiza (112 listings state a year) and 2006 in Palma de Mallorca (59 listings). Barcelona's listed 24 m+ yachts are older, with a median build year of 2000 across 23 listings.

Why the table shows cities

For the listings counted here, the location is a city or only the country, taken from the catalogue's list of locations; one listing of the 353 gives a marina or port instead. The separate marina field is empty on all 163,253 listings in the pool, so it cannot be used to break the listings down by marina. For the marinas themselves, the blog already has a guide to the main yachting marinas in Spain, a piece on Barcelona's marinas and anchorages and a round-up of Ibiza's marinas. This article counts how many 24 m+ listings there are in each city and what day rates those listings state.

Size bands: how big Spain's listed superyachts are

Most of Spain's large listed yachts sit at the lower end of the range. Of the 353 listings, 251 are under 99 ft (about 24–30 m), 64 are from 99 to under 132 ft (about 30–40 m) and 38 are 132 ft or longer (about 40–61 m).

99 to under 132 ft (about 30–40 m)6417€10,9608—
132 ft and over (about 40–61 m)385—7—

The step in day rate between bands is steep. The median stated rate for listings under 99 ft is €4,650 per day across 122 listings; for 99 to under 132 ft it is €10,960 across 17. At 132 ft and over only five listings state a day rate in euros, too few for a median. Sale prices are rarer: 32 of the 353 listings carry one in euros after the outlier rule. The only band with ten or more is under 99 ft, where 17 listings give a median of €1,395,000.

Among the cities shown, Palma de Mallorca has the most listings of 132 ft and over. The city has 12 listings of 132 ft and over, compared with 7 in Ibiza, even though Ibiza has about twice as many 24 m+ listings overall (128 against 67). The five cities from the first table split across the three bands as follows.

How Spain compares with Greece, Croatia, Italy, France and Turkey

Spain's 353 listings of 24 m+ sit within a catalogue of 13,448 Spanish listings, so large yachts make up 2.6% of the country's supply. That share is close to those of Greece, Croatia, Italy and France, and far below Turkey's. Greece has 1,029 listings of 24 m+ out of 26,858 (3.8%), Croatia 877 of 26,719 (3.3%), Italy 734 of 19,706 (3.7%), France 390 of 17,173 (2.3%) and Turkey 3,101 of 10,567 (29.3%).

Spain's median stated day rate for a 24 m+ yacht, €5,115 from 144 listings, sits below France at €5,992 and a little above Greece, Croatia and Italy; Turkey, at €2,139, is far lower.

How to read these numbers

  • Compare within one size band. In Spain the median day rate is €4,650 for listings under 99 ft and €10,960 for 99 to under 132 ft, so a city median blends whatever mix of sizes there is among the listings that enter it.
  • Check the count behind each median. Ibiza's €7,188 rests on 60 listings; Palma de Mallorca's €4,650 on 25.
  • A stated day rate is the last day rate recorded for the listing in the snapshot of 5 October 2026. It is not a booking or a sign that the yacht is free on any given date.
  • For charter, the data stops at the stated day rate. Weekly rates, APA, VAT and fuel are not counted here. For what makes up the cost of a charter in Spain, see the blog's guide to the cost of yachting in Spain; for itineraries, the Balearic Islands routes and anchorages guide.
  • Prices are in euros only. Day rates and sale prices stated in another currency are left out of every price median; the listings themselves still count towards the listing totals. Medians of length use all 24 m+ listings, whatever the currency of the price. Medians of build year use the listings that state a year: 112 in Ibiza, 59 in Palma de Mallorca and 23 in Barcelona.

The Ibiza listings on GetBoat, all sizes, are in the GetBoat Ibiza catalogue.

How we measured

  • Pool. Listings visible on GetBoat, counted on 5 October 2026 at 20:39 UTC. Listings held by four third-party marketplace accounts are excluded.
  • Size. A stated length of 79–200 ft (about 24–61 m). GetBoat stores listing length in feet; the metre figures in this article are approximate equivalents. Bands: under 99 ft, 99 to under 132 ft, 132 ft and over.
  • Place. The location named on the listing, taken from the catalogue's location list. Of the 353 Spanish listings of 24 m+, 311 name a city, 41 name only the country and 1 names a marina or port. The 41 appear in the Spain totals, not in the city rows. The marina field cannot be used for marina-level counts, as explained above. Two spellings were merged: "Palma" into "Palma de Mallorca" and "City of Barcelona" into "Barcelona".
  • Prices. The latest price set by the listing itself, in euros, taken separately for the daily charter rate and the sale price. No currency conversion was applied.
  • Outliers. Day rates below €300 or above €100,000, and sale prices below €100,000 or above €100,000,000, were removed before any median was calculated. In Spain this removed 2 of 146 day rates and 1 of 33 sale prices. Every "With a day rate" and "With a sale price" count in this article is taken after this step. Elsewhere it removed 1 day rate and 1 sale price in France, 1 day rate each in Greece and Croatia, and 1 day rate and 3 sale prices in Italy. In Turkey it removed 6 day rates and 1 sale price.
  • Threshold. A median is published only where at least 10 listings carry the value in question: day rate, sale price, length or build year. Smaller groups are shown as "—".
  • What is missing. Marinas, for the reason given under Place; transactions, bookings, occupancy, seasonality, weekly rates, APA and VAT, which are not counted here; and individual yachts, by design.
