Mallorca is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in Spain. Its coves, landscapes, and biodiversity make the island an ideal destination for all types of holidaymakers. Like the rest of the Balearic Islands, Mallorca is characterised by its spectacular landscapes and the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea that surrounds it.
Its turquoise waters and incredible landscapes can be enjoyed from land or sea, with boat rentals in Mallorca being one of the popular activities with visitors. By renting a boat, you can explore the island in a different way, visiting hidden caves, exploring unspoilt coves, diving in dreamlike spots, or enjoying a beautiful sunset from the sea.
With 550 kilometres of coastline, hiring a boat is a great way to explore the island more freely and to walk where few tourists set foot. From May to October is the ideal season, as these are the months when the sea is at its calmest and the weather is warmer.
In this post, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about renting a boat in Mallorca and how to enjoy the Mediterranean like never before.
To enjoy travelling on the Mediterranean sea, you don't have to own a boat. On the island, there are countless companies you can rent a boat with. Whether you want to have a good time with your family, take a romantic trip as a couple, or celebrate with a group of friends, this is an activity that can adapt to all needs.
There are always good reasons to celebrate a party, whether it's a stag night, a hen party, a birthday, wedding, or simply a summer party with your friends. If you love parties, then we’re sure you’ll love the idea of having one on a boat, and, even more so when you’re actually sailing through the waters around Mallorca.
Some companies rent boats in Mallorca specifically for parties, offering you an unforgettable experience for you and your guests. It’ll really take your celebration to the next level, and hiring a boat to take you around the island's best coves is such a simple process.
Some boat rental companies in Mallorca offer a service without a hired skipper. This means that you can sail out to sea without having to hire someone to sail the boat – you’ll be in charge of sailing the boat! This is a perfect option if you want to spend some time alone with loved ones or your partner.
You should bear in mind that boats without a hired skipper are small - less than 5 metres long - reach a maximum speed of 15 hp, and you can only travel up to 2 miles away from where you boarded the boat. Besides this, you can only sail during daylight hours for safety reasons, and, naturally, the driver must be of legal age.
Some companies also allow you to rent a boat without a licence in Mallorca, and you’ll be able to navigate the waters without any kind of documentation or previous experience. However, these companies will give you a short course on how to handle the boat so that you won't have any problems when you’re out at sea.
However, you don’t need to worry, because the boats you can rent in these cases are very easy to handle, have GPS, and also a communication system in case of any problems. The requirements are the same as for the boats without a hired skipper: you must be of legal age, you can’t go more than 2 miles out to sea, and the boats are always small.
As you can see, boat hire in Mallorca is within everyone's reach, and is an activity you certainly shouldn’t miss on your next visit to the island.
