Rent a boat in Mallorca: an adventure for summer 2024
Dreaming of sailing the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean this summer? Mallorca, the jewel of the Balearic Islands, offers the perfect opportunity to make that fantasy a reality. Discover why renting a boat for a day in Mallorca during the summer of 2024 will be the experience that defines your vacation.
Renting a Boat in Mallorca this Summer 2024
Mallorca is not only famous for its golden sandy beaches and vibrant nightlife. The island hides secret coves and paradisiacal corners that are only accessible by sea. Renting a boat gives you the freedom to explore these hidden treasures at your own pace.
With your own boat, you decide the itinerary. Do you want to spend hours swimming in a solitary cove? Or do you prefer to visit several inlets in a day? The choice is yours. Plus, you’ll enjoy total privacy, away from crowded beaches.
Various Options for All Tastes and Budgets
Whether you are an experienced sailor, or a beginner filled with enthusiasm, Mallorca offers several options for those who want to set sail for a day.
At La Pérgola, located very close to the port of Andratx, we recommend these possibilities:
- 1.Sailboats are perfect for lovers of traditional sailing.
- 2.Motor yachts cover long distances quickly, allowing you to visit more hidden spots along the Mallorcan coast.
- 3.Catamarans are the best choice for large groups, offering great stability and, if the wind is favorable, can sail without the noise and pollution of a motor.
- 4.Speedboats are economical and very agile, perfect for shorter outings.
What to Do at Sea When You’ve Rented a Boat
Sunbathing, swimming, enjoying a snack, and observing the surrounding nature are just the beginning. Many rentals include equipment for water sports such as snorkeling, diving, kayaking, paddleboarding, or sport fishing.
Steps to Rent a Boat This Summer 2024
- -Choose the right size of the boat, considering the size of your group, your sailing experience, budget, and the duration of the rental.
- -With or without a skipper? If you lack experience or prefer to delegate command and relax, it's best to rent a boat with a skipper. If you have experience and a nautical license, you can act as skipper yourself and sail with more freedom.
- -Book in advance, as summer promises to be very busy.
- -Decide your route in advance. Where do you want to sail? Near the Tramontana, the east side of the island, the north... whichever route you choose, you will enjoy a great experience.
And to Make the Most of the Experience…
Set out early to make the most of the daylight hours and avoid the intense midday heat.
Bring plenty of provisions and water to prepare the best picnic anytime and anywhere.
Protect yourself from the sun. The sun at sea is very intense, so be sure to bring adequate sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. If possible, use eco-friendly sunscreen. And enjoy nature, respecting it and leaving it as you found it or better.
