The Experience

The catamaran leaves Port d'Alcudia and sails past the largest bay in Mallorca toward Coll Baix Beach, a spot TripAdvisor ranks among Europe's top 25. You get a 20-minute stop to swim or snorkel in the clear water, or stay on deck and watch the coast. From there the boat heads toward the Bay of Pollensa, passing Cap des Pinar and sailing close enough to the Formentor Lighthouse to photograph it from on board — the northernmost point of the island, though the boat doesn't anchor there.

Cala Engosalba is the longest stop, around 90 minutes. The catamaran anchors in a secluded cove where you can snorkel, paddleboard, swim to a nearby inlet, or jump straight into the water from the deck. While you're in the water, the crew prepares lunch: barbecued meat, pasta salad, bread and fresh fruit, served with your choice of orange juice, water or sangria. A bar on board sells additional drinks and cocktails if you want them. The crew is a professional local captain and team who handle all the sailing and anchoring.

On the return to Port d'Alcudia, if the wind cooperates the sails go up and you can relax on the catamaran's nets or in the shaded interior. A final stop near the Alcanada Lighthouse around 14:00 gives you one more swim before heading back to port. The itinerary can shift depending on wind, weather or safety — the crew decides the route each day.
