Snorkeling Tour to Malgrats Islands, Mallorca: Boat and fins

A short boat ride, then you're in the water with fins and a guide watching the sea life.

A snorkeling tour to the Malgrats Islands from Mallorca combines a half-hour boat trip with supervised snorkeling in a calm bay using fins and full equipment. The guide leads you through the marine reserve, and a monitor stays with you in the water at all times. Pickup is available from the Calvia zone, or you can arrange your own transport. Children from age 8 can join if they swim, and the whole outing runs three hours.

Step-by-step itinerary

Boat trip and snorkeling experience

• Boat trip to Malgrats Islands
• Snorkel with fins in calm bay
• Follow guide and monitor supervision

The experience

The boat leaves from Calvia and takes thirty minutes to reach the Malgrats Islands. Once you arrive at the calm bay, you put on fins and snorkeling gear. The guide and a monitor are in the water with you from the start. The marine reserve here is what makes the trip worth the ride: you're looking at sea life in protected waters, not a crowded beach break. A monitor stays at your side the entire time, so you're never unsupervised, and the bay itself is shallow and still enough that even less confident swimmers can manage it.

The whole outing is three hours from start to finish. You'll want to bring a swimsuit and a towel. Everything else (snorkeling fins, mask, insurance) is included. If you book the option with pickup, a transfer collects you from your accommodation in the Calvia zone and brings you back after. The operator asks you to arrive fifteen minutes early so the group can get geared up without rushing.
