The hull rocks with a slow, courteous rhythm as Formosa 46 slips out of La Lonja marina; spray mints the air and the southwest coast of Mallorca opens in tiers of blue. Guests settle on teak benches, plates arrive warm from the galley, and the captain eases the sails so the sea can do the work — an intimate cruising pace that invites conversation, photos and long looks toward hidden coves.

The hull rocks with a slow, courteous rhythm as Formosa 46 slips out of La Lonja marina; spray mints the air and the southwest coast of Mallorca opens in tiers of blue. Guests settle on teak benches, plates arrive warm from the galley, and the captain eases the sails so the sea can do the work — an intimate cruising pace that invites conversation, photos and long looks toward hidden coves.
This stretch of coast bears limestone cliffs carved over millennia, shallow calas scored into the Tramuntana foothills and beaches that have drawn sailors since Phoenician and Roman times. Palma’s harborside district of La Lonja grew alongside seafaring trade; today it’s a starting point for gastronomic charters that pair local produce and Mediterranean technique with small-boat navigation.
Expect a five-hour loop that balances slow cruising and anchoring at scenic spots for swims or snorkeling, followed by a multi-course tasting menu crafted on board. The chef prepares tapas-style starters, seafood-forward mains and a delicate dessert while the crew handles lines, safety briefings and local narration about the coastline and currents.
Practically: board in central Palma, bring sun protection, seasickness remedies if you’re prone, and a light layer for evening breezes. Timing a trip for late afternoon yields calmer light and the option of a sunset return. Public transit reaches the marina; confirm boarding point with the operator and arrive 15–20 minutes early to receive a safety briefing and stow valuables below deck.
Yes; infants must sit on an adult’s lap and the operator notes the experience is suitable for all physical fitness levels.
