On the eastern edge of Menorca’s deep natural harbor, the Port of Mahón offers a fast track into Mediterranean freedom: Licencia Basica de Navegación (Titulín) at Moll de Llevant, 96, Maó. In a compact four-hour course designed for beginners, you can legally skipper recreational boats up to 6 meters and operate jet skis for daytime navigation. The format blends concise theory with supervised prácticas a bordo, so you spend less time cramming rules and more time learning maneuvers where they matter—on the water. Instructors guide groups of up to eight through docking, basic seamanship, collision avoidance and radio etiquette, then hand you the certificate that opens Menorca’s coastline: snug coves, limestone cliffs, and seagrass meadows of Posidonia oceanica that make the bays crystal clear. What makes this offering a local linchpin is its location and pace. The base at Moll de Llevant, 96 sits on Mahón’s working quay, where ferries, fishing boats and pleasure craft meet. That proximity lets training move straight from classroom to skiff, minimizing transit and maximizing seat time. For visitors, the license is practical—enough to pilot small tenders, explore sheltered anchorages around the island and learn safe dispatch of personal watercraft. Practicalities are straightforward: the session lasts about four hours, spaces are limited to eight participants, and candidates must present a psychotechnical medical certificate on the day. The program accepts students 18 and up; 16–18-year-olds may participate with parental authorization. Fuel is not included—students accompany the instructor to the port fuel dock to settle gasoline costs before returning to the original berth. Why choose this course while visiting Mahón? It turns holiday watching into active exploration. With this licence you can sample hidden beaches accessible only by boat, practice seamanship in calm Mediterranean conditions, and confidently rent a small craft on future trips. The setting also gives a quick primer in real-world harbor operations; you’ll learn to read tide, wind and traffic in one of Europe’s largest natural ports. The operation places an emphasis on clear, exam-free instruction and safety. If you want to move from passenger to pilot and see Menorca from the water, this compact, hands-on course at Moll de Llevant is the most efficient way to start. Participants with mobility needs should note the base reports space for baby strollers and folding wheelchairs—contact the operator ahead to confirm access. There’s no written exam: assessment happens through observed competence during maneuvers, which keeps the day efficient and low-pressure. Completion leaves you with a credential recognized for daytime coastal navigation, and basic radio procedures. For travelers planning to charter later in the season, the Titulín is the efficient gateway to independent shore-hopping, anchoring in clear bays, and shortening the learning curve for safe coastal cruising.
The course is open to people 18 and older; candidates aged 16–18 may participate with parental or guardian authorization.
No formal written exam—assessment is practical and instructor-led during on-water drills to confirm competency.
