Leopard 24

The Leopard 24 sits at a size that feels generous without tipping into excess. At twenty-four metres, three cabins separate guest and crew areas cleanly, which keeps the boat easy to live on for a single day out or across a night or two at anchor. The interior favours practical comfort over spectacle: clean lines, wide window sections, and deck space arranged for stretching out rather than staged photographs.

For guests looking beyond the standard Puerto Banús loop, the Leopard 24 suits the westward run toward Estepona and Casares, around 25 kilometres along the coast, where the beaches are quieter and the water is clear enough for reasonable snorkelling near Punta de la Chullera. It is a shorter, calmer passage than a Gibraltar Strait crossing, comfortable for most guests, and still a different stretch of coastline from the marina-to-marina routine many day charters fall back on.

Twelve guests and three cabins make this a practical choice for a family charter that might extend into an overnight, a small corporate lunch off the Marbella coast, or a couple marking an anniversary with something quieter than a full superyacht day. Worth asking early about fuel and APA guidance for the specific route in mind — a short coastal run and a longer passage west sit on very different budgets, and having that clear before departure keeps the whole booking straightforward.
