The boat hire company in Pulpí
Hiring a boat in Pulpí
San Juan de los Terreros is the last village in Almería before Murcia, with the coves of El Pozo del Esparto and the island of Terreros, a marine reserve, off the beach. Its only registered rental company runs skippered boat routes round the island and the coves, with more than 130 Google reviews; there are no bareboat motorboats. For those, Garrucha, 24 km away, has 8 companies, and Águilas, already in Murcia, 12 km, has more. It is an unbuilt coast between Villaricos and Águilas, with gravel coves and rocky seabed.
The season runs from April to October, with companies open all year in Garrucha. On a strong levante nobody goes out; with a poniente, the sea is usually calm.

A skippered route round the island from the local company, yes; for a bareboat motorboat, Garrucha (8 companies, 24 km) or Águilas in Murcia (12 km).
Do I need a licence?
The Terreros routes are skippered, so no. A motorboat up to 5 metres and 15 hp from Garrucha or Águilas needs no licence in daylight near the coast; bigger boats need an ICC or Spanish licence.
How much does a boat cost in Terreros?
A skippered route by the seat or from €600 for the boat; a no-licence motorboat from Garrucha or Águilas, €120–250 a day; a RIB with licence, €250–650. Indicative high-season ranges; fuel and deposit are extra.
Can I sail round Terreros island?
Yes, on the skippered routes: the island and the neighbouring Isla Negra are a marine reserve a mile off the beach, with restricted anchoring and clear water over rock; the routes circle them and stop at the coves.
Are there boat trips in Terreros?
Yes, and they are the main offer: the skippered routes round the island and along the Pozo del Esparto coves, several times a day in summer. They are listed under the boat trips category.
