et’s face it: there are few bad places to sail in the Balearics. But Mallorca is certainly one of the very best places in the Mediterranean to explore and develop boat craft skills. I

Mallorca is known for its beautiful beaches, crystal clear waters, and picturesque towns. It is a popular destination for cycling trips, weekend breaks and family holidays, yet there is nothing quite like seeing the island from the water.

Traversing the coastline by sea offers a unique perspective on the island's natural beauty and allows for access to secluded coves and beaches. Here are just a few of the hidden gems to put on any sailing break itinerary.

‍

Cala Millor

Located on the east coast of Mallorca, Cala Millor is a popular destination for tourists. The beach is well-maintained, with sparkling waters and fine sand. Visitors can also enjoy a variety of water sports, such as jet skiing and parasailing.

Cala Ratjada

This is another popular destination on the east coast of Mallorca. The town is known for its beautiful beaches, lively nightlife, and delicious seafood restaurants. Visitors can also explore the nearby lighthouse and watch the sunset over the Mediterranean. Highly recommended.

Cala d'Or

This is a charming town located on the south coast of Mallorca. It is known for its picturesque marina, beautiful beaches, and tranquil atmosphere. From there you can also set a course for the fascinating caves and take a boat trip to the nearby island of Cabrera.

Formentor

This is a remote and secluded peninsula located on the northern tip of the island. From the sea, you can see the high cliffs and stunning lighthouse from all angles. Opt to set foot on land and you can hike your way up the hillside for some stunning views. The relatively unspoilt part of the island also features a number of beautiful beaches, clear waters, and excellent snorkeling and diving opportunities.

Sa Dragonera

This is a small island located off the west coast of Mallorca. It is a nature reserve and home to an array of protected species such as the dragonera lizard, which gives the island its name.

Puerta Pollensa

This is a charming coastal town, which is popular virtually throughout the year thanks to its popularity with hikers, cyclists and families. Head inland to Pollensa itself and you can climb the 365 steps to the quaint little Calvari Chapel for beautiful views and a sense of achievement.

Alcudia

This is a popular destination located on the North Eastern coast of the island. The town has been popular with holidaymakers for many decades now, with plenty of bars, amenities and hotels to complement the long beaches and blue waters. If you choose to moor in Pollensa, this is a short bus ride or even a pleasant cycle away.
