A boat rental in the Balearic Islands is ideal for anyone seeking sun, sea and Mediterranean lifestyle – solo, with crew or family. Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera offer one of Europe's most diverse sailing areas: short distances, sheltered bays, lively coastal towns and a sailing season from March to October.
The sailing season runs from March to October, with May to September being the most popular months. During this time, you can expect stable conditions, air temperatures of 25–32 °C, water temperatures up to 27 °C and winds around 3–5 Bft – ideal for relaxed or active cruising. Spring and autumn bring quieter harbors, clearer skies and peaceful sailing.
Thanks to the island geography, you’ll find sheltered waters – especially south of Mallorca, between Ibiza and Formentera, and around Menorca.
From Mallorca: Palma – Cabrera – Colònia Sant Jordi – Cala d'Or – Portocolom – Porto Cristo – back via Sóller or Andratx (approx. 120 NM)
From Menorca: Mahón – Cala Galdana – Fornells – Ciutadella – Cala Macarella – back to Mahón (approx. 90 NM)
From Ibiza: Eivissa – Cala Comte – Es Vedrà – Sant Antoni – Formentera – return to Ibiza Town (approx. 80 NM)
From Formentera: Day or weekend trips to Ibiza’s south coast or the quiet Playa de Migjorn
Each itinerary is flexible and can be adapted to wind, crew, and individual preferences.
Renting a boat in the Balearic Islands means experiencing more than just the sea – it’s also about markets, music, architecture, and local cuisine. Mallorcan tapas, Menorcan Mahón cheese, Ibizan sobrasada, or fresh seafood in Formentera – each island has its own culinary treasures.
Historic old towns like Palma, Ciutadella, and Eivissa charm visitors with cathedrals, museums, and lively narrow streets. In the small coastal villages, simple pleasures await: freshly grilled octopus, a glass of local white wine, a golden sunset – and the feeling of truly arriving.
Traditional celebrations such as the Nit de Sant Joan in Menorca or the Ibiza Jazz Festival showcase the islands’ rich cultural heritage. Art galleries, craft markets, and rustic village fiestas offer an authentic glimpse into island life beyond tourism. Exploring the land while on a yacht charter in the Balearics means discovering not only delicious flavours but also cultural depth – and experiencing Spain at its most original.
A highlight for nature lovers is Cabrera National Park, just south of Mallorca. This uninhabited island group is only accessible with a permit and protects seabirds, fish and rare plants. The mooring field in Cabrera’s bay is among the most beautiful in the western Mediterranean.
Important: Anchoring in Cabrera is not allowed. Instead, day and overnight mooring buoys are available and must be reserved online in advance. Day use is free. Overnight stays are limited to two nights in July and August, and up to seven nights from September to June. More information is available on the national park’s official website.
Other protected areas include:
Respect is essential: no trash, no noise, no disturbing wildlife. In return, you'll enjoy peace, starry skies and an unforgettable anchorage.
