Most of the berths are at Alcudiamar in the Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia district, with more at the smaller Marina de Bonaire. Here you can read how to get to the harbours in Alc\u00fadia, where each harbour is, where to park and shop, what the sailing weather is like, which sailing destinations are nearby and what skippers need to know about berthing.<\/p>\n<h2>The essentials at a glance<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The nearest airport is Palma de Mallorca. The TIB airport buses run directly to Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia, as line A32 in summer and line A33 in winter.<\/li>\n<li>Alcudiamar is on the waterfront promenade of Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia on the Bay of Alc\u00fadia, while the Marina de Bonaire is about three kilometres further north on the Bay of Pollen\u00e7a.<\/li>\n<li>Alcudiamar has its own car park with 345 spaces, and two supermarkets are about 400 metres away.<\/li>\n<li>From May to October, a north-easterly sea breeze blows in the northern bays on many days, usually at 2 to 5 Beaufort.<\/li>\n<li>As things stand today (November 2026), ferries run from the port of Alc\u00fadia to Ciutadella on Menorca all year round and to Barcelona daily.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Where are the harbours in Alc\u00fadia?<\/h2>\n<p>Sailing yachts can berth in two places in Alc\u00fadia: at Alcudiamar on the Passeig Mar\u00edtim of Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia, directly west of the commercial harbour on the Bay of Alc\u00fadia, and at the Marina de Bonaire, about three kilometres to the north on the Bay of Pollen\u00e7a. The peninsula of Alc\u00fadia lies between the two, with the old town at its base.<\/p>\n<p>The state-owned port of Alc\u00fadia consists of two parts: the commercial harbour with the ferry terminal, and the basin for smaller boats with the fishing quay and Alcudiamar. The Marina de Bonaire is not part of it; it lies on the other side of the peninsula and is run by a separate operating company.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Feature<\/th>\n<th>Alcudiamar<\/th>\n<th>Marina de Bonaire<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Location<\/td>\n<td>Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia, Bay of Alc\u00fadia<\/td>\n<td>Bonaire, Bay of Pollen\u00e7a<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Address<\/td>\n<td>Passeig Mar\u00edtim 1<\/td>\n<td>Cam\u00ed Vell de la Vict\u00f2ria 19<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Berths<\/td>\n<td>745<\/td>\n<td>333<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Boat length<\/td>\n<td>up to 30 m<\/td>\n<td>up to 16 m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tiefgang<\/td>\n<td>up to 4 m<\/td>\n<td>up to 2.7 m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>VHF channel<\/td>\n<td>9, round the clock<\/td>\n<td>9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fuel station<\/td>\n<td>yes<\/td>\n<td>no<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Technology<\/td>\n<td>Travel lift 150 t, crane 8 t<\/td>\n<td>Travel lift up to 28 GRT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Information as of November 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Arriving for the start of your sailing trip in Alc\u00fadia<\/h2>\n<p>The nearest airport is Palma in the south of the island. From there you can take a bus, taxi or hire car to the north. If you are already in the Balearic Islands or in Barcelona, you can also take the ferry directly to the port of Alc\u00fadia.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1698117\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rocky coastline near Alc\u00fadia\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.toernfinder.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/toernfinder-alcudia-kueste.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>From Palma airport to Alc\u00fadia<\/h3>\n<p>The airport buses of the TIB, Mallorca's intercity bus network, stop at the terminal on level 0 by the arrivals area. In summer the A32 line runs between the airport and Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia; in winter the A33 line takes over this connection with its own timetable and a slightly different route. You will find timetables and stops at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tib.org\/es\/lineas-y-horarios\">TIB transport association<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A taxi or hire car will take you straight to the harbour. Give the driver the full name: \u201cAlcudiamar, Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia\u201d or \u201cMarina de Bonaire\u201d. There are more than 50 taxis in Alc\u00fadia itself, and you will find one at the tourist spots at any time of day.<\/p>\n<h3>By ferry<\/h3>\n<p>As things stand (November 2026), up to eight ferries a day run all year round from Alc\u00fadia to Ciutadella on Menorca, and the crossing takes between one and two and a half hours. There are daily connections from Barcelona to Alc\u00fadia; the fast ferry takes around three and a half hours, the conventional ferry five to six. The ferries berth at the commercial harbour, just east of Alcudiamar.<\/p>\n<h3>Telling Alcudiamar and Marina de Bonaire apart<\/h3>\n<p>The two harbours lie on different coasts of the peninsula, with the town in between. You can recognise Alcudiamar by the long Passeig Mar\u00edtim with restaurants and shops right on the water. The Marina de Bonaire is quieter, in the Bonaire residential area, on the road towards the Ermita de la Vict\u00f2ria.<\/p>\n<h3>Parking<\/h3>\n<p>Alcudiamar has its own car park with 345 spaces within the harbour grounds. The fee is a maximum of \u20ac1.97 per vehicle per hour (as of November 2026). Parking is only permitted in the marked areas, and a 20 km\/h speed limit applies on the site. There is also public parking on the Passeig Mar\u00edtim, around 100 metres from the harbour basin, and on the Carrer dels Mariners, around 400 metres away.<\/p>\n<p>At the Marina de Bonaire there is a car park on the Cam\u00ed Vell de la Vict\u00f2ria, around 200 metres from the harbour.<\/p>\n<h3>Showers and sanitary facilities<\/h3>\n<p>Both harbours have showers and toilet facilities. At Alcudiamar they are in the building with the shop units, where the laundrette is also located. The Alcudiamar harbour area is accessible for people with reduced mobility.<\/p>\n<h3>Shopping for the trip<\/h3>\n<p>From Alcudiamar it is a walk of around 400 metres to the Eroski and Spar supermarkets. The Bip Bip, around 450 metres away, and the Mundo Supermarket, around 550 metres from the harbour basin, are also nearby. For a big shop by car, there is a Lidl around one kilometre and a Mercadona around 1.4 kilometres from Alcudiamar. A weekly market is held on Fridays from 8am to 1.30pm on the Pla\u00e7a de Cas Vicari in Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia, and on Tuesdays and Sundays from 9am to 1.30pm in the old town of Alc\u00fadia.<\/p>\n<p>At the Marina de Bonaire, the Eurocop supermarket is around 150 metres away, and for a big shop by car there is a Mercadona around 2.3 kilometres away. Supermarkets in Alc\u00fadia and on Mallorca are usually open continuously from about 9am to 9pm, smaller shops from 10am to 1pm and from 5pm to 8pm.<\/p>\n<h3>Doctor, pharmacy and emergency services<\/h3>\n<p>The nearest pharmacies are around 450 metres from Alcudiamar, on the Carrer del Coral, and the Barcel\u00f3 pharmacy. From the Marina de Bonaire, the nearest pharmacy is on the Cam\u00ed Vell de la Vict\u00f2ria, around 450 metres away. In Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia there is a health centre (Unidad B\u00e1sica de Salud) at Carrer Ciutadella 7, as well as doctors' surgeries such as U24, around 450 metres away, and Juaneda, around 500 metres from the harbour. The nearest hospital is the Hospital Juaneda Muro, around 3.5 kilometres away.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>112: Balearic emergency number for ambulance, fire brigade and police, free of charge, in Spanish, Catalan, English and German<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Where is Alcudiamar?<\/h2>\n<p>Alcudiamar is located on the waterfront promenade of Port d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia, at Passeig Mar\u00edtim 1. To the south the marina borders the Bay of Alc\u00fadia, and to the east the quays of the commercial harbour. Restaurants, shops and the beach of Alc\u00fadia begin right at the harbour.<\/p>\n<p>With 745 berths, Alcudiamar is one of the large marinas on Mallorca. The berths are spread across seven parallel pontoons, six of them 150 metres long. There is room for boats from 6 to 30 metres in length and with a draught of up to 4 metres. Alcudiamar is a concession within the state-owned port of Alc\u00fadia, awarded in 1988.<\/p>\n<h3>Facilities at Alcudiamar<\/h3>\n<p>The pontoons have water and electricity at 220 and 380 volts, up to 125 amps depending on the berth. Free Wi-Fi, video surveillance and round-the-clock security are included. The fuel station is on the harbour grounds. The boatyard area of around 12,000 square metres has a 150-tonne travel lift and an 8-tonne mobile crane, and boats up to 6.80 metres in beam can be lifted.<\/p>\n<p>Around the harbour there are 36 restaurants, bars, shops and specialist businesses, including chandlers, mechanics and yacht agencies. With the Marina Residence, Alcudiamar also has its own accommodation for sailors on the harbour grounds. You can also stay overnight ashore there.<\/p>\n<h2>Where is the Marina de Bonaire?<\/h2>\n<p>Marina de Bonaire lies on the north side of the Alc\u00fadia peninsula, in the Bonaire district on the Bay of Pollen\u00e7a. The harbour is sheltered from east-northeasterly to north-northeasterly winds. It is surrounded by the residential areas of Bonaire and Mal Pas.<\/p>\n<p>With 333 berths for boats up to 16 metres, Bonaire is much smaller than Alcudiamar. The harbour has five pontoons, three quays and a waiting quay for arriving boats. The marineros are available around the clock and help with berthing from a dinghy.<\/p>\n<h3>Facilities at Marina de Bonaire<\/h3>\n<p>Water and electricity are available at the berths. As well as showers and sanitary facilities, the marina has a bar with a restaurant. On the 5,400-square-metre boatyard, boats up to 16 metres long, 5 metres wide and 28 gross register tons are lifted out by travel lift. There is no fuel station. The nearest is in the harbour of the Reial Club N\u00e0utic Port de Pollen\u00e7a, around 3.5 nautical miles away.<\/p>\n<h2>What is the weather like for sailing in Alc\u00fadia?<\/h2>\n<p>From May to October, a regular sea breeze usually determines the sailing weather. In the bays in the north of Mallorca it blows from the northeast, roughly at right angles to the coast.<\/p>\n<p>The sea breeze usually reaches force 2 to 5 and blows for six to 14 hours, longer on the coast than inland. In the bays of Alc\u00fadia and Pollen\u00e7a it is an almost daily occurrence in the summer months.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish weather service AEMET normally issues a yellow warning for the coasts of the Balearic Islands from force 7 winds or waves three metres high. From 1 May to 30 September, the yellow warning applies as early as 40 kilometres per hour of wind or two-metre waves. A special feature of the Balearic Islands is the rissagues: sudden fluctuations in water level, for which AEMET issues warnings from 0.7 metres.<\/p>\n<h2>Where can you sail to from Alc\u00fadia?<\/h2>\n<p>From Alc\u00fadia, the Bay of Pollen\u00e7a, Cape Formentor, the east coast of Mallorca and Menorca are all within reach. The nautical miles are rounded distances over water on the usual course; for precise planning, rely on the nautical chart.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Port de Pollen\u00e7a: The harbour in the Bay of Pollen\u00e7a has public visitor berths run by the Balearic port authority Ports IB, showers and a fuel station. From Marina de Bonaire to the fuel station in the harbour it is around 3.5 nm.<\/li>\n<li>Cape Formentor: The northeastern tip of Mallorca, with its lighthouse, is around 7 nm from Marina de Bonaire. Beyond the cape begins the island's northwest coast.<\/li>\n<li>Ciutadella on Menorca: The harbour on Menorca's west coast lies opposite Alc\u00fadia, with the Menorca Channel in between. It has public visitor berths, showers and a fuel station. If you sail on around the island, you will find the harbour of <a href=\"\/en\/sailing-magazine\/port-mao-menorca\/\">Ma\u00f3<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Cala Ratjada: The harbour in the northeast of Mallorca has public visitor berths, showers and a fuel station, and there is a marine protected area nearby.<\/li>\n<li>Palma: From Marina de Bonaire, it is around 81 nm to the harbour of Palma, via Cape Formentor, the northwest coast and the island of Dragonera. You can find out more about the berths there in the profile of the <a href=\"\/en\/sailing-magazine\/palma-mallorca-marinas\/\">Marinas in Palma<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What can you do ashore in Alc\u00fadia?<\/h2>\n<p>For a day in port, the old town with its town walls and the remains of the Roman town of Pollentia are well worth a visit. Both lie inland from Alcudiamar.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Old town and town walls: The 14th-century wall encloses the old town with 26 defensive towers. You can walk around the town for free on the wall walk along the top of the wall. The Porta del Moll, the east gate, was once the way to the harbour.<\/li>\n<li>Roman town of Pollentia: The excavation is the most important Roman site in Mallorca. You can see a residential quarter, the forum and the theatre, which seated around 2,000 spectators and whose tiers are cut directly into the rock. Finds are displayed in the Museum of Pollentia in the old town.<\/li>\n<li>Platja d&#8217;Alc\u00fadia: The sandy beach stretches for more than seven kilometres along the bay and slopes away very gently. It begins right on the Passeig Mar\u00edtim next to Alcudiamar.<\/li>\n<li>Alcanada and Cala Poncet: These small bays have clear water and seagrass meadows. Off the coast, the lighthouse stands on the island of Alcanada.<\/li>\n<li>Hiking: Paths around the peninsula lead to the Ermita de la Vict\u00f2ria, to Es Coll Baix beach and to the north coast, and there is also the s&#8217;Albufera nature park.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>For skippers: berthing and sea weather in Alc\u00fadia<\/h2>\n<p>In both harbours, you call up on VHF channel 9 before entering and wait for your berth to be assigned.<\/p>\n<h3>Registration at Alcudiamar<\/h3>\n<p>The harbour station listens on channel 9 around the clock.

You can also complete registration in advance online on the marina's website: there you enter the boat details, insurance and the names of everyone on board. You give notice of departure at least 24 hours beforehand and pay the berthing fee. If you are arriving from outside the Schengen area, the marina reports your arrival to the border police with the crew list.<\/p>\n<p>Reception is staffed Monday to Friday from 8 am to 4 pm, and from 1 April to 27 October also on Saturdays from 9 am to 1 pm, and in July and August additionally on Sundays from 9 am to 1 pm.<\/p>\n<h3>Registration at Marina de Bonaire<\/h3>\n<p>You can also reach Marina de Bonaire on VHF channel 9.
