Once again, at Marina Port Vell Barcelona, we promoted our traditional annual trip to the snow, the Captains’ Ski Escape, together with our colleagues from MB92. From 10th to 12th February, we set off from Marina Port Vell with the captains of the superyachts berthed at the marina to the prestigious ski resort of Baqueira Beret with a single objective: to have a great time in the best company.
At Marina Port Vell we like to foster relationships and create a sense of companionship amongst the captains. The Captains’ Ski Escape is a great opportunity for captains to network and socialize, and is one of the many activities planned by our team to ensure that captains and crew have a great experience during their stay with us.
Baqueira Beret is one of the most popular ski resorts in Spain. It boasts 165 kilometers of ski slopes of all levels, and stands out for its privileged orientation, exclusive services, and high-quality facilities.
Exploring Baqueira Beret with an outstanding activity program

The captains, eager to make their debut on the slopes in the best company, prepared to enjoy an unforgettable weekend at the highest level. Excited by the opportunity to be with people who shared the same interests in a landscape of extraordinary beauty, they embarked with energy on the first proposal of Marina Port Vell: the snow bike ride. Perfectly equipped, they toured the Pyrenean mountains for miles, an inspiring experience that captivated even the most cautious.
Adrenaline in Baqueira, après-ski, and a touch of local gastronomy
After an intense morning of skiing, laughter, and a good dose of adrenaline, we were able to enjoy the long-awaited après-ski and share with our guests the unique gastronomic experience of having lunch at an altitude of over 1,800 meters while enjoying a glass of champagne with a dreamlike landscape in view.
We also visited the renowned restaurant Casa Irene, a classic of the area and another essential enclave of the snow experience in Baqueira. Thanks to the combination of tradition and innovation, its gastronomic proposal seduced our guests, who, after a memorable weekend in the snow, returned to Barcelona with a suitcase full of unforgettable memories.
We are immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to share this incredible experience with all the captains and our co-host MB92, as well as for the support of sponsors Pinmar, Jotun Yachting, VIDA by ERZIA and BWA Yachting.
See you all again next year!
