If you're keen on exploring different magical places on our island, then don't miss out on the best boat trips around Mallorca, where you'll discover so many truly idyllic spots.
This trip is one of the most popular for three reasons: its affordable price, the availability of options and the companies that offer it, and its breathtaking views, which are especially beautiful at sunset.
We recommend that you look for a trip that departs from Alcúdia port, where you'll find some of our VIVA hotels.
This particular trip will take you along the coast of the bay and then across to Pollença, in the direction of Formentor beach.
You can also take this trip by boat from the Port of Pollença (there's a daily ferry which takes just 25 minutes and runs from April to October).
Once you arrive at Formentor beach, you can take a swim, go for a walk, or snorkel to explore the underwater world.
And, weather permitting, on the way back there's the option of stopping near the Aucanada lighthouse for a last dip of the day.
If we're talking about the best boat trips around Mallorca, we couldn't fail to mention a visit to the Cabrera archipelago, a veritable paradise with very few buildings - the only Maritime-Terrestrial Natural Park in the Balearic Islands.
There's a very good reason why Cabrera still has its wild, unspoilt spirit: it can only be reached by boat.
The shortest and easiest access is from Colonia de Sant Jordi, a young, modern village on the south coast of the island.
On the way back from Cabrera, some organised tours make a stop at the spectacular Blue Cave.
If you're planning on visiting Mallorca soon, don't think twice about taking one of the best boat trips in Mallorca. It takes you around the north coast, right in front of the impressive Tramuntana mountain range.
You can take a ferry from Puerto de Sóller to Sa Calobra and Torrent de Pareis.
There's also the option of renting a boat yourself and cruising along the north coast at your own pace, discovering caves, cliffs, and gorgeous coves.
The island of Dragonera is located at the western end of the island.
One of the most popular boat trips is the one that departs from Santa Ponsa, as it combines swimming stops, incredible views, and onboard food and drink.
Once you arrive at Dragonera, you'll have an hour to explore the island or enjoy the crystal clear waters that are said to have been one of the hideouts of the dreaded pirate Redbeard.
If you're looking for something quiet and exclusive, away from the mass tourism, why not consider going on excursions on a small private boat or motorboat?
One of them goes to Es Caló d'es Moro, one of the most idyllic beaches in Mallorca, which is especially notable for its turquoise waters.
We also recommend you visit the beautiful Cala Figuera and, from there, the magnificent natural rock arch called "Es Pontás".
On this route you’ll see other beautiful coves, such as Santanyí, Cala Llombards, and s'Almunia, which you can admire from the sea while snorkelling or swimming in the crystal-clear Balearic waters.
Dolphin spotting, relaxation, swimming in the open sea, snorkelling... Tell us what your ideas are and we'll tell you the best boat trips for you.
As you can see, the choice in Mallorca is enormous.
