Azimut 116

Azimut 116 carries her 36 metres with a wide, low-slung profile that makes the aft deck and saloon feel closer to a private villa than a boat under way. Five cabins sleep up to 12 guests, laid out with enough separation that a family group or a small corporate party rarely ends up sharing the same stretch of deck at the same time.

A day out of Marbella often runs west along the coast past Estepona's quieter beaches, where the water off Punta de la Chullera stays clear enough for swimming and snorkelling away from the busier bays nearer Puerto Banús. The yacht handles a full day on this stretch comfortably, with room on the flybridge and aft deck to split lunch across two separate seating areas instead of crowding one.

Charter terms for Azimut 116 keep the day rate and the advance provisioning allowance separate, so guests understand ahead of departure roughly what a coastal run will draw in fuel compared with a longer push toward the Strait of Gibraltar. Berths for a yacht this size at Puerto Banús are worth booking well ahead of July and August, when the marina fills.
