Are you looking for the best sailing trips around Mallorca? You’re in luck because today, here at Hotels VIVA, we’re going to tell you all about our favourites.
Sailing trips can give us some truly unforgettable times and wonderful memories. That's why some say that you shouldn’t leave Mallorca without experiencing a sailing trip around the island.
Nautical tourism is exhilarating. It’s a perfect option for your holiday, a safe environment and you can avoid the crowds!
If you choose a sailing boat, you’ll have a kind of floating house, equipped with everything you need for your comfort while you sail freely around the island.
In addition to this, nautical tourism in general, and travelling on a sailing boat in particular, will let you get to know our island in a totally different way. You’ll get a fresh perspective as you find landscapes, coves, bays, and beaches that it would be difficult to see any other way.
The beach of Formentor appears in all the Mallorcan travel guides, and it’s no surprise that everyone who visits the island wants to get to know this magical enclave of fine sand and crystalline waters surrounded by a wild pine forest.
Getting to Formentor, especially in the high season, isn’t always very easy due to the high volumes of traffic on the roads. For this reason, more and more people choose to travel there by water.
Another typical sailing trip around Mallorca is to go to Cabrera, a true paradise with hardly any buildings and which, to this day, is the most representative and wonderful natural park on all the Balearic Islands. The only way to get there is by boat.
There’s a lot to see and enjoy on the island of Cabrera. We recommend a stroll along its practically unspoilt beaches, a swim in its transparent waters, and a visit to its mesmerising blue cave, where you can enjoy a refreshing dip.
Visiting Deià is one of the most spectacular sailing trips you can make to discover the northern part of Mallorca. On this trip, you’ll sail partially around the Cap Gros lighthouse and discover some charming coves and wonderful scenery.
One of the spots that deserves a stop is Alconàsser, a curious rocky cove surrounded by pine trees. It’s difficult to get there on foot, which is why it’s one of the strategic points where you can take a break from your sailing trips around Mallorca and take a refreshing dip.
A short distance away is Llucalcari cove (also known as Es Canyeret), an iconic area due to its large hollowed-out rock.
On the rest of the trip to Cala Deià you’ll see beautiful and spectacular cliffs, pine forests, olive trees, and terraces bordering the sea.
Once you’ve arrived, we recommend that you enjoy the beaches and the idyllic views that have captivated artists and painters over the years.
Port des Canonge is located very close to Banyalbufar, a village in the southwest of the Tramuntana mountain range.
There, you’ll see a small jetty that offers incredible views of the sea and a small cove of pebbles and coarse gravel covered with Mediterranean tapeweed.
Without a doubt, this sailing trip will help you really get to know Mallorca’s more rugged side from the sea.
While you’re there, why not visit Estellencs beach, which is ideal for diving or snorkelling, thanks to its crystal-clear waters?
If so, we recommend that you take into account the characteristics of the yacht (layout, services, and onboard facilities) and, of course, your budget.
You should always make sure you liaise with a reliable company or website that will manage the whole trip for you. Plan your trip well in advance!
