Sunseeker 28

At 28 metres, the Sunseeker 28 sits comfortably in the upper bracket of charters based out of Marbella, with four cabins built for overnight stays and enough deck room to hold twelve guests without anyone feeling boxed in. It reads as a boat for people who want the scale of a proper yacht without the formality that sometimes comes with anything much larger.

A typical day starts from Puerto Banús and runs west along the coast toward Estepona, where the water is calmer and the beaches less crowded than the stretch directly off Marbella. Guests anchor for a few hours to swim, then head back in for the evening — a loop that suits the yacht's size well, since it covers real distance without pushing into the longer, fuel-heavier runs toward the Gibraltar Strait.

The Sunseeker 28 works equally well for a family taking the boat out over several days as it does for a small corporate group booking a single afternoon on the water, or a couple marking an anniversary with a quieter charter. Because guest capacity and sleeping capacity differ — twelve on deck, four cabins for those staying aboard — it's worth confirming numbers and route length early, along with a realistic fuel estimate for whichever stretch of coast you have in mind. Superyacht berths at Puerto Banús fill early through the summer months, so booking ahead matters more than it might for a shorter, smaller boat.
