Cala Ratjada Sailing Tour: Belmita Sailboat Experience

Sail past Capdepera Lighthouse into an untouched natural park, then anchor in a remote cove for lunch.

A 6.5-hour shared sailing tour from Cala Ratjada aboard the Belmita sailboat, cruising Capdepera Lighthouse, through Llevant Natural Park, and into Es Caló for an on-board lunch. The skipper navigates by wind alone through crystalline waters with no buildings in sight, passing Cala Agulla and Cala Mesquida before reaching a protected cove where the group anchors to eat.

The Experience

The Belmita leaves Cala Ratjada harbor and heads toward Capdepera Lighthouse, where on clear days you can see across to Menorca. From there the route turns into Llevant Natural Park, a protected stretch of coast where the sailboat moves through water so clear and the shoreline so undeveloped that the usual noise of a beach town disappears entirely. The skipper uses the wind to propel the boat—no engine, no motor sound—which is part of what makes this corner of Mallorca feel removed from the rest of the island.

The sailing route passes Cala Agulla and Cala Mesquida before reaching Cap de Ferrutx, where the course turns toward Es Caló. This is the cove where the group anchors for lunch. The meal is served on board, along with water, soft drinks and coffee throughout the day. If conditions shift, the skipper may choose a different unspoiled cove nearby, but the landing and the meal stay part of the plan. Life vests are provided and included.

The tour runs 6.5 hours total. You'll need to make your own way to the boarding pier at Cala Ratjada Harbour, though public transportation options are available nearby. The guide speaks English or Spanish. Alcoholic beverages are available before and after lunch if you want them—they're not part of the base package but you can order them on board.
