Mallorca Snorkeling Tour: Small Groups, Pro Guide

Mask on, the underwater world opens without the crowd

Snorkel a protected nature reserve in Mallorca with a licensed guide, small group of up to 8 participants, and all equipment provided. You'll receive a wetsuit suited to current water temperatures, a professional mask, snorkel and fins. No previous experience required; the guide teaches you step by step and stays with your group throughout the 3.5-hour activity.

The Experience

The guide meets you at the pickup point on Ctra Arenal and walks through the basics before you enter the water — how to breathe through the snorkel, how the fins work, what to expect. Groups stay small by design, which means the guide can watch each person individually, answer questions as they come up, and steer you toward the best spots instead of herding everyone through the same route. Snorkeling itself is straightforward: you float on the surface, breathe through the tube, and look down. No diving certification, no special fitness — just comfort in the water.

The wetsuit keeps you warm enough to stay out for hours without getting cold. The equipment is professional-grade, not rental-shop basics, so the mask fits properly and the fins give you real control. You'll spend the bulk of the 3.5 hours actually in the water, moving between spots the guide knows, stopping when something worth watching appears. The guide speaks English or German, so you follow the commentary without guessing what's happening around you.

Bring swimwear, a towel and a change of clothes; the guide will tell you what else to have ready. Arrive 30 minutes before the start time at the pickup point. Public transport reaches the area if you're not driving. Children from age 8 are welcome, and the activity suits any fitness level as long as you're in good medical condition — the guide will ask before you start.

Top questions

What's the water like when I snorkel in Mallorca?

The nature reserve where you snorkel is protected, so the water stays clear and calm. The guide takes you to spots where you'll see fish and marine life without fighting currents or crowds. Water temperature changes by season, which is why the wetsuit is tailored to what you'll encounter on your date.

Do I need to know how to snorkel before I book?

No. The guide teaches you everything you need to know before you get in the water — how to breathe, how to clear your snorkel if water gets in, how to move with the fins. Snorkeling is easy to learn, and the guide stays with your group the whole time to make sure everyone is comfortable.

How many people will be on this snorkeling tour?

Groups are kept to a maximum of 8 participants, which is small enough that the guide can give individual attention and show you the best spots without anyone getting lost or holding others back.

What equipment do I get, and what do I bring myself?

The tour includes a professional mask, snorkel, fins and a wetsuit fitted to the water temperature. You bring your own swimwear, towel, change of clothes and something to drink. Bring your ID card or passport as well.

What time does the snorkeling activity start, and how long does it last?

The activity runs for 3.5 hours total. You'll need to arrive 30 minutes before the start time at the pickup point on Ctra Arenal, so plan for about 4 hours from arrival to finish.

Can I buy photos of myself snorkeling?

Yes, photos are available to purchase during or after the tour — ask the guide about the options when you arrive.
