An intimate wedding. An unforgettable proposal. The sound of the sea, the gentle breeze, and the sun slowly setting on the horizon. Fuerteventura offers unique settings for love, but there is one that stands out above the rest: a romantic experience on board, sailing into the sunset.
If you are looking for an original, elegant and deeply emotional idea to seal your commitment or say ‘I do’ in a magical setting, this article is for you.
A true story: a marriage proposal on the high seas at sunset
Last week, aboard the Aphrodite, we experienced one of those moments that remind us why we love what we do. A couple decided to surprise each other with a marriage proposal at sea, just as the sun began to paint the sky with golden and pink hues off the coast of Morro Jable.
As the Atlantic calmed down and the breeze caressed the deck, she said yes, with the waves as witnesses and the Fuerteventura sunset as a backdrop. It was a moment filled with emotion, laughter, knowing glances… and that feeling of being in the perfect place, at the perfect moment.
This proposal took place during one of our Thursday sunset cruises and became an unforgettable memory not only for the couple but also for the entire crew on board.

Why choose a boat for a wedding or proposal?
More and more couples are looking for an authentic, exclusive celebration with personality. And few things convey as much emotion as sharing a moment like this in the middle of the ocean:
- No crowds, no interruptions
- With complete privacy
- In a natural setting of unparalleled beauty
The south of Fuerteventura, with its stable climate, clear skies and golden sunsets, offers the ideal setting.
Aphrodite Sunset: our most romantic boat
What does this experience include?
- 3-hour sunset cruise. (Contact us if you need more and we will customise the excursion)

Our team will accompany you before and during the tour to ensure that everything goes perfectly. We can help you with:

Can a civil or symbolic wedding be held on board?
Yes, if you wish to have a symbolic or intimate wedding with family and friends, our boats offer the perfect space. Although the legal part must be done on land, the exchange of vows can be done with complete solemnity and beauty at sea.
