From Nice to Mallorca

This page was translated automatically from German. View the original

This sailing trip connects the French Mediterranean coast with the Balearic Islands and offers a successful blend of relaxed coastal legs and an exciting offshore passage.

After starting in Nice the route leads initially along the Côte d'Azur towards Toulon. Depending on wind and weather, stops in sheltered bays or lively harbour towns are on offer before the course is set for the open Mediterranean.

From the French coast begins the longest leg of the trip: the crossing to Menorca. Around 220 nautical miles lie between the mainland and the first Balearic island – enough time to experience genuine offshore sailing. Far from any coast, wind, waves and the starry sky set the rhythm. With a bit of luck, dolphins will accompany the boat on this special stretch.

After arrival in Menorca there is time to enjoy the idyllic bays and the island's relaxed character. Subsequently the final leg leads across the Balearic island sea to Mallorca. The destination is Portocolom – one of the island's most beautiful natural harbours with Mediterranean flair, excellent restaurants and a relaxed atmosphere.

A sailing trip for all who want to experience the appeal of a longer offshore passage without forgoing varied coastlines, picturesque anchorages and the Mediterranean way of life.
