About Marea

Complex behind the scenes. Effortless in front.

Marea is a collection of private yacht journeys across the Mediterranean, the Pacific, the Caribbean, the Atlantic and Brazil, built on a simple idea: the best way to know a place is to arrive by water.

Adrian Costa

Founder, Marea

Our founder

Marea began with a childhood spent on the water.

Adrian Costa grew up sailing with his family. Much of his childhood was spent aboard a sailboat, travelling along different coastlines, discovering unfamiliar places and learning to experience the world from the water.

Those early journeys became more than family trips. Over time, they shaped his relationship with the sea and sparked a lasting passion for sailing, travel and discovering new places. Years later, that passion became the foundation for Marea.

Adrian built Marea around a simple idea: a yacht charter should be about much more than the yacht itself. It should be about the feeling of arriving somewhere by water, reaching places a road can't always reach, slowing down, and knowing a destination in a more personal way.

From secluded Mediterranean coastlines to tropical islands, remote Pacific waters and the coast of Brazil, Marea curates journeys that connect travellers with the character of each place.

"I grew up believing that the best way to discover a place was from the water. Marea is my way of sharing that feeling."

01

The yacht

A hand-picked fleet of sailing yachts, catamarans and classic hulls, each with a crew who knows its waters.

02

The table

A chef on board cooks from the morning's catch and the local market. The menu follows the coast, not a template.

03

The concierge

One person who plans with you, watches the weather and quietly moves things when the sea changes its mind.
