Boat trip Mallorca

 

Now is the time to get to know the island by sea, and one of the most popular activities in Mallorca, is the Mallorca boat trip. We recommend two tours that will show you the most beautiful areas of the coastline of Mallorca.

 

The best area for your boat trip in Mallorca is from the municipality of Alcúdia. A municipality that has its own harbour with a wide variety of companies offering this service in Mallorca.

There are several options for your boat trip Mallorca:

 

The first option is the Glass Bottom Boat. Special boats with transparent floors so that during the excursion along the coast you can see the marine fauna and flora under your feet, it gives a fascinating insight into life below the waves. This boat excursion in Mallorca is usually accompanied by dolphin watching.  Watching the dolphins at the play is an amazing experience not to be missed.

 

The second option is for the most daring, for those who are looking for more an adrenaline rush and is not suitable for the faint of heart, the Jetboat trip. Experience a unique adrenaline rush as you race through the water in a jet boat at over 70km/h along the coast with wild cornering maneuvers.

 

Diving in Mallorca

 

One of the most wonderful and exciting activities in Mallorca is diving. Diving in Mallorca is the perfect way to immerse yourself in another dimension and connect with life underwater.

 

The best option for diving in Mallorca is the northeast coast of the island, specifically Alcúdia or Pollensa, a privileged area for divers. There are many aquatic schools in both municipalities with courses for different levels and with different routes. Although, what really makes Alcúdia and Pollensa so special for diving in Mallorca are its calm waters and the endless caves, fauna and marine flora that inhabit them.

 

Barracudas, octopuses, moray eels, castanets, nudibranchs, salps and even croakers are some of the marine species that you will be able to see during your dive. In addition, in the area of Alcúdia and Pollensa there are several shipwrecks that you can explore during your diving classes in Mallorca.
