The hull of Perseus XXI cuts the bright Mediterranean like a slow pen stroke; wind fills the canvas sails and the smell of seawater and hot iron from the BBQ mix into a uniquely Mallorcan afternoon.
You leave from the Real Club Náutico in Palma and glide west toward Portals Vells, a pocket of three coves hemmed by limestone cliffs and submerged caves. The captain drops anchor in a turquoise bowl; guests spread out between the bow solarium, the cozy cockpit and the aft balcony while the crew prepares a low-and-slow BBQ of premium meats and local fish. Between bites you can paddle on a SUP, slip on a snorkel to peer over Posidonia meadows, or float on a noodle while the breeze rocks the boat.
Palma’s maritime culture is centuries old—this coastline has been used by fishermen, traders and leisure sailors alike—and the geology here is compact limestone carved by sea and rain into small coves and caves that shelter marine life.
Practical details: the charter is a 6-hour outing for up to 12 passengers (rental price covers up to 8; extras payable at port). A skipper and sailor are included; snorkeling gear and a paddleboard are provided. The chef-run menu is typically an add-on paid at the port.
Plan for sun and sea: reef-safe sunscreen, a wind layer for the open water and secure footwear for boarding. If you want calmer conditions, pick a mid-morning departure—winds often ease as the day warms—and tell the crew dietary requirements in advance so the onboard chef can adapt.
The excursion is approximately 6 hours and departs from the Real Club Náutico in Palma; the route typically visits Portals Vells coves.
A chef-run gourmet menu is offered as an add-on and paid at the port (typically ~60 EUR/person); a fridge of drinks is available and some beverages may be included—confirm at booking.
Yes—families are welcome and the boat accommodates infants (strollers permitted); note that under-18s cannot be served alcohol and must sit on laps if needed.
The operator will cancel for bad weather; for a full refund cancel at least 24 hours before departure per the standard policy.
