Variety of boats available

Mallorca has about 20.000 moorings for pleasure boats and 48 marinas, since the yachting sector is one of the most demanded tourist attractions in the Balearic Islands.

Even so, most of these ships are idle at piers and ports during 95% of the days of the year, which has led to the appearance of platforms based on sharing and collaborative economy, allowing many owners to offer their boats for rent*, as well as other websites that offer rooms or vehicles.

This phenomenon has already arrived to Mallorca, and many travelers arrive at Palma Airport not only with a car and a hotel room booked, as well as a rented boat to travel along the Mallorcan coastline and to be able to access the beaches and coves which would be impossible or difficult to reach on foot.

To rent a boat in Mallorca you will need a valid license if you rent a motor boat of more than 15 hp and more than 5m long. In the case of sailboats, you will need a license if the boat is more than 6m long.

In any case, you should submit a nautical CV to the owner detailing your previous experience on the type of boats you have sailed and chartered.

If you are inexperienced, you can choose to rent a boat without a license or a boat with a captain and let yourself go. The good thing about this is that the captain will know the area well, so it will be a very good opportunity to discover hidden coves without tourists.

Since Mallorca has 48 ports and marinas from which you can rent your boat, there are many opportunities for sailing on the island. Some recommendations are:

  • Visit the Cabrera Archipelago Maritime-Terrestrial National Park, twelve nautical miles away from Mallorca, and take a swim in the Cova Blava. Note, however, that anchoring on the sea floor is forbidden throughout the archipelago, so you will have to use the available buoys.
  • Discover some of the best coves in Mallorca from the sea, such as Cala Mesquida, Es Caló des Moro or Cala Figuera. We recommend that you consult our Mallorca’s beaches and coves guide; in each section we tell you about the underwater conditions for enjoying a day on board a boat.
  • Enjoy a sunset from beaches such as Sa Calobra or Es Trenc. In addition to this, you can have a cocktail at the famous S’Embat beach bar at sunset.
  • Head for the northernmost tip of Mallorca and let yourself be impressed by the beautiful lighthouses along the coast from beaches such as Cala Mitjana.
  • Puerto Portals is, without a doubt, one of the most glamorous places in Mallorca and where you are likely to meet more than one familiar face. If you are looking for luxury, this is your area.

The weather in Mallorca is typical Mediterranean, with about 300 days of sun a year and temperatures ranging between 16ºC and 18ºC on average. During the summer months temperatures reach 29ºC / 31ºC. The minimum night-time temperatures in winter are between 5ºC and 9ºC.

For this reason, renting a boat in Mallorca is an excellent option in any month of the year, although you will enjoy it the most between April and October.
