The destination guide
Mallorca is one of the Mediterranean’s most important yacht destinations, combining major marina infrastructure, island anchorages, mountain scenery, beaches, luxury hotels, historic towns and one of Europe’s strongest marine service networks.
Although Palma is the island’s main superyacht hub, the wider island offers a diverse cruising experience. Yachts may visit Port d’Andratx, Port de Sóller, Alcúdia, Cala d’Or, Port Adriano, Cabrera and numerous calas around the coastline.
Mallorca is valuable because it works as both a destination and an operating base. It offers excellent airport access, refit services, provisioning, crew support, fine dining, culture, cycling, hiking and short passages to Ibiza, Menorca and mainland Spain.
