SAILING AREA
Your sailing trip starts in Palma at Marina La Lonja. The northwest coast is characterised by the Tramuntana mountain range and the preconceptions that many harbour regarding the island are suddenly nothing more than a faint memory. Here you find secluded bays hiding behind rugged cliffs, green-covered slopes on which tiny villages cling and unknown, solitary retreats. Mallorca shows its wild, peaceful side. Since there is only the harbour at Sóller on the northwest coast and otherwise only bays, this route is recommended for more experienced sailors. The most beautiful anchorage is considered to be Cala Sa Foradada – anchoring is possible to the left and right of the rock. Particularly spectacular at sunset is the rocky outcrop with a 14-metre hole.

But don't worry, the southern route also offers sailors beautiful nature and holidays away from mass tourism. Here you can leave everyday life behind and simply let your soul unwind. The southern route takes us past wonderful sandy beaches, dreamy bays and sleepy little places, but also past lively marinas and bustling towns.

A stop in the small fishing village of Sa Ràpita is a must on this route. The "jewel among beaches", the "Es Trenc", begins right at the end of the harbour wall. It lies in a nature reserve and there is no sign of the many hotels whose skyline characterises many places on Mallorca. The waves gently lap at the gently sloping, fine sandy beach and the sea glitters light blue and clear. A piece of the Caribbean in the middle of Europe!

From here "the golden bay in the southeast of Mallorca" is not far: Cala d'Or. A small yacht harbour and white houses welcome you. Surrounded by jagged cliffs, almond plantations and pine forests are golden-yellow, fine sandy beaches. The turquoise sea invites you to swim, whilst the promenade in the harbour as well as the town itself offer countless restaurants and boutiques for feasting and strolling.

If you now fancy immersing yourself a little in the vibrant life on Mallorca, plan your next stop in Cala Millor. The resort is touristy and has a two-kilometre-long beach and a long promenade. In the evening you call in at one of the pretty little restaurants in the harbour and enjoy the extremely delicious, traditional local cuisine whilst gazing out to sea.

Highlights and bays in the southwest: as we sail from Palma westwards, we are enchanted by the scenic diversity. Highlights include the Malgrats Islands near Santa Ponsa, the harbour town of Port d'Andratx and the rocky island of Sa Dragonera, which resembles a sleeping dragon. The following bays captivate us here: Portals Vells – a sheltered bay with three small bathing beaches with fine sand and pine forest. The cave Cova de Portals Vells is easy to reach. You can observe the diverse underwater world whilst snorkelling in the very clear water. In Camp de Mar we anchor on good holding sandy bottom surrounded by crystal-clear seawater. The highlight – in the middle of the bay is the restaurant Illeta. Enjoy Mallorcan cuisine here, which the family business has been serving for more than four generations.

On the return journey to the departure harbour, a night in the natural paradise of Cabrera is a popular programme item on our sailing trips. In the past the island was a refuge for pirates – today Cabrera is a protected and unspoilt island, home to a wide variety of seabirds and marine life. Only 20 residents live here permanently and a maximum of 50 visitors are allowed to come each day. Cabrera is therefore a guarantee of a wonderfully peaceful stay.

With 300 days of sunshine a year, Mallorca enjoys good weather all year round. Regional thermal winds build up in the mornings to a steady force 2–3 Beaufort and often increase to force 4 Beaufort in the afternoons. The tramontana from the north and the sirocco from the south can occasionally bring a stronger breeze.
In May the temperatures are already pleasant; from July to September, 30 degrees is not uncommon. Fortunately we are usually on the water, where there is always a light breeze and the temperatures are felt to be pleasant. Together with water temperatures of up to 26 degrees, this makes Mallorca a dreamlike sailing area.

Water temp. avg. 22–28°C

LIFE ON BOARD
At the start, the ship's kitty is set up for all running ancillary costs and food on board. The skipper does not pay into the kitty, as by old seafaring custom he is fed from it. After an initial shop and the allocation of cabins, a rough route and trip plan is drawn up together. You discuss what you expect from your sailing trip. Do you want to take it easy and explore Mallorca's secluded spots, or rather immerse yourselves in the lively towns? Or perhaps a mixture of both? The choice is yours. The planning takes into account wind and weather, organisational matters and the wishes of all crew members.
