The boat slips away from Palma's quay and the city exhales: stone facades and the Seu (Palma Cathedral) lean toward the sea as you move into open water. Salt and citrus meet in the air, the sail fills, and the harbor recedes while an audio guide begins to unfurl the story of the coast.

The boat slips away from Palma's quay and the city exhales: stone facades and the Seu (Palma Cathedral) lean toward the sea as you move into open water. Salt and citrus meet in the air, the sail fills, and the harbor recedes while an audio guide begins to unfurl the story of the coast.
From the deck you'll pass the Gothic sweep of the Cathedral and the low, Mediterranean elegance of Marivent Palace—the royal family's summer residence—each stop timed for photos and narration. Geologically, these waters lap a coastline of limestone and sheltered coves where Posidonia meadows hold the sand and feed the clarity that makes Cala Mayor's swim so rewarding. Culture here is hands-on: small-batch olive oil, local cheeses and cured meats are offered on board as a compact tasting of Majorcan flavors.
The experience blends sightseeing with simple, active pleasures: a close-up of Palma's waterfront architecture, a 45-minute anchor at Cala Mayor for swimming and snorkeling (equipment provided), and optional paddleboarding. Skippered and private, the three-hour tour is accessible for most fitness levels and tailored for relaxation with a practical edge.
Plan to bring swimwear, sun protection and a light layer for breeze. If you want better photos, aim for morning or late-afternoon sails for softer light and calmer seas. Respect the marine environment—avoid stepping on seagrass when entering the water—and follow crew instructions for a smooth, local-feel outing that combines history, coastlines and cuisine.
Most departures are from Palma’s main marina; aim to arrive 10–15 minutes before the scheduled time to complete check-in.
Yes—snorkeling equipment and a paddleboard are provided; basic swimming ability is recommended for water activities.
The tour includes bottled water, snacks and one drink, plus a tasting of typical Majorcan products during the sail.
Full refund if cancelled at least 24 hours before departure; tours may be cancelled for bad weather with a refund.
