Sunset Boat Tour Andratx: snorkel, pizza and Dragonera Island

Swim in a cove, snorkel the shallows, then eat pizza on the water as the sun drops.

A sunset boat tour departing from Port Andratx that takes you along the southern Mallorca coast past Dragonera Island, a natural park, with a 40-minute snorkeling stop in Cala en Basset where you can also use the onboard slide. Pizza and a drink are included, and the whole outing runs 3.5 hours from start to return. The guide speaks English and Spanish.

The Experience

The boat leaves Port Andratx at 18:00, with a pickup stop in Sant Elm at 18:30 if you need it. From there you cruise the coast for 50 minutes, skirting Dragonera Island—a protected marine park where the water stays clear and the rocky shoreline rises steeply. The mountain scenery frames the whole passage, and the timing means you're heading into the golden hour as you travel.

At Cala en Basset, you stop for 40 minutes to snorkel and swim. Snorkeling gear is provided (a €10 deposit covers it), and the cove is shallow enough for the whole family. There's also a slide on the boat if you want to use it between water time. This is the main activity of the tour—the water is the point, not a quick dip between sights.

While you're on the water, pizza and a drink come out. You eat aboard, watching the light soften over the island and the mainland cliffs. The return to Sant Elm takes 30 minutes, then another 30 back to Andratx, where you arrive around 21:30. Service animals are welcome, and infants sit on an adult's lap; the boat suits all fitness levels.
