Rent a boat without license in Can Pastilla, Mallorca: 4 hours

You steer a boat designed so anyone can operate it, even on the first try.

A license-free boat rental in Can Pastilla, Mallorca lets you navigate Palma Bay's coves, beaches, caves and cliffs without prior sailing experience. The B450 'Theia' seats up to four and comes with insurance. You pick the 4-hour or 8-hour window and set your own route through the water.

The experience

Four hours is enough to reach the smaller coves and beaches tucked into Palma Bay without rushing back. The boat itself is the whole point: the B450 'Theia' is built to be simple, so you don't need a nautical license or any sailing background. You handle the steering and throttle from the start, which means you're not following a guide's itinerary or waiting for anyone else to decide where to stop. The pontoon at Can Pastilla is where you pick up the keys and cast off.

Insurance is included in the rental, and the boat comes ready to go. Fuel costs 20€ for the 4-hour rental or 30€ for 8 hours, charged separately. A 500€ deposit secures the booking. The bay itself opens up once you're on the water: rock formations, small beaches, caves cut into the cliffs. All of it reachable at whatever pace you want. If four hours feels tight, the 8-hour option gives you time to explore deeper into the bay or linger at a spot that catches your eye.

Infants and small children can come along. Specialized seats are available if you're bringing them. Service animals are welcome. The CMSAP Maritime Club at Can Pastilla has public transportation nearby, so getting to the pontoon from central Palma is straightforward.

What’s included

• Insurance with franchise.
• boat rental for up to four passengers.
