BOAT TRIP LOCATIONS IN MALLORCA

Sailing out of Palma is just the beginning. The coastline is dotted with secret corners near Magaluf, El Arenal and Palmanova, don't miss out no the beach clubs..

Here are a few of our favorite stops along the way:

​

• Illetes & The Islands: A favorite for a reason! We’ll drop anchor in the turquoise waters of Illetes, where you can swim around the small rocky islets and enjoy that perfect Mediterranean 'blue.'
   

• Cap Rocat: For a touch of pure magic, we head toward the dramatic cliffs of Cap Rocat. The water here is incredibly clear and deep blue it’s the kind of spot where you’ll want to jump in the second we drop the anchor.
   

• Cala Vella: This is where we go to truly escape. Accessible only by sea, this rugged, quiet cove is the perfect place to relax with a drink in hand while the sun bounces off the cliffs.
   

• Portals Vells: Known for its famous sea caves and calm, sandy floor, this is a snorkeler’s paradise. It feels like a world away from the busy city, surrounded by pine trees and peace.
   

The South West is where Mallorca’s rugged mountains meet the luxury lifestyle. This part of the coast is famous for its deep blue water and some of the most impressive architecture on the island. Also some of the best Beach Clubs.

​

• Port Adriano: This isn't just a marina; it’s a masterpiece. Designed by Philippe Starck, it’s the place to see the world’s most modern superyachts. Cruising past here feels like a front-row seat to a luxury boat show.
   

• Santa Ponsa: We love the 'Malgrats Islands' just off the coast here. It’s a protected marine reserve, which means the snorkeling is incredible. It’s the perfect place to drop anchor, jump in, and see the underwater side of the Mediterranean.
   

• Port Andratx: Often called the 'St. Tropez of Mallorca,' this natural harbor is stunning. As we sail in, you’ll see luxury villas perched high on the cliffs of Monport. It’s the ultimate destination for a long lunch on deck or a sunset toast.

​

If you’re looking for those postcard-perfect turquoise bays surrounded by pine trees, the East Coast is where you’ll find them.

This side of the island feels a bit more traditional, with sleepy fishing ports and some of the most beautiful swimming spots in the Mediterranean.
 

• Portocolom: This is one of the last truly authentic fishing villages on the island. Sailing past its iconic lighthouse and the colorful boathouses (called barraques) feels like stepping back in time. It’s a peaceful, spacious harbor that’s perfect for a slow start to the day.
   

• Cala d’Or: Known for its white-washed, Ibizan-style buildings and 'Golden Cove,' this area is a series of stunning little inlets. Because these coves are narrow, seeing them from a boat is the only way to avoid the beach crowds and get the best view of the sparkling green water.
   

• Porto Cristo: Famous for its world-class caves (like the Dragon Caves), this port has a rugged, rocky entrance that is spectacular to sail into. The coastline nearby is full of hidden sea caves and 'pirate holes' that we can explore from the water.

Sailing the West Coast feels like entering a different world. There are no long sandy beaches here but instead, you get towering limestone cliffs, hidden sea caves, and deep, emerald waters. Starting from the charming harbor of Sóller, the coastline opens up into a playground for explorers.

​

• Sa Calobra & Torrent de Pareis: This is the 'showstopper.' It’s a tiny beach tucked between two massive vertical cliffs. Arriving here by boat is the only way to do it right—you skip the crazy mountain roads and sail straight into the heart of this natural monument.
   

• Cala Tuent: A peaceful, emerald-green bay that feels completely untouched. It’s surrounded by pine forests and the highest peaks of the mountains. It’s one of the best spots on the island for a quiet swim in crystal-clear water.
   

• Sa Foradada: You’ll recognize this from the postcards—it’s the famous rock with a massive hole right through the middle. We can anchor nearby so you can take photos of this weird and wonderful landmark from the best possible angle.
   

If you want high drama, mountain views, and the feeling of being truly 'away from it all,' the West Coast is the trip you’ll never forget.

The North east is where Mallorca shows its wild side. It’s a land of massive bays, hidden turquoise corners, and the dramatic 'meeting point of the winds.' If you love wide-open spaces and water that looks like a swimming pool, this is your coast.

​

• The Bay of Alcúdia & Can Picafort: These are some of the biggest and most beautiful bays in the Mediterranean. We love cruising along the coast here because the water stays shallow and bright turquoise for miles. It’s perfect for a long, lazy day of paddleboarding and swimming.
   

• The Bay of Pollença: This is a sailor’s dream. Tucked between the Formentor peninsula and the La Victoria hills, the water here is usually calm and protected. It’s the best place to find a quiet corner and enjoy a lunch on board with nothing but mountain views around you.
   

• Formentor & The Lighthouse: No trip to the North is complete without seeing the Cap de Formentor from the water. Seeing those massive cliffs and the lonely lighthouse from the deck of a boat is a perspective very few people get to see.
   

Whether you want to explore the lively shores of Can Picafort or escape to the silent, dramatic cliffs of Formentor, the North Coast offers a sense of freedom you won't find anywhere else.
