One of the wonderful things about Mallorca, apart from its natural beauty, is its wide variety of activities geared to all tastes. You can enjoy everything from completely laid-back holidays, with the tranquillity of the sea within arm’s reach, to a full-on holiday involving windsurfing in Mallorca and a host of other exciting water sports.
For those who are new to the sport, windsurfing consists of balancing on a surf board while holding a sail and harnessing the wind to move across the sea. You’ll be able to savour a sensation of tranquillity and adrenaline at the same time!
On this occasion, Hotels VIVA sets out a different but highly enjoyable activity that you can try on your next holiday. Take a windsurfing course and discover the charms of Mallorca!
The thermal winds that buffet Alcudia bay make it an ideal place for beginners of all ages to learn windsurfing in Mallorca. In fact, during the mornings, many people head for the beaches of the north of Mallorca to learn, because on this side of the island there are virtually no waves and the wind is very gentle.
Many fans of the sport also congregate at Cala Mesquida. Here they take full advantage of its crystal-clear waters and its perfect waves, emanating from its northerly winds, to try their hands not only at windsurfing but also to take advantage of the afternoon swell to take the plunge with surfing.
Conditions like these make the business of practising the simple manoeuvres much easier. As the afternoon approaches the swell increases slightly, making it ideal for trying other sports, such as funboarding. The best thing about Mallorca and its beaches is that you’ll always have something to do.
In the north of Mallorca you’ll find various companies offering windsurfing courses and other water sports for beginners, starting from 6 years old upwards. Among the services on offer are:
There’s currently a wide variety of water sports you can try. You’ll find a host of professionals on Mallorca with the expertise to teach you this and other sports in a safe way, as well as sails of all sizes and equipment appropriate to every level.
