Yacht Charters

Housed in an 18th-century flour mill near Montuiri, the Son Fornes museum provides a glimpse into how Mallorcans lived in prehistoric times. The museum is actually the dig site of Son Fornes, where a 1988 excavation revealed the area’s roots.

Located in the south near Santanyí, this park is renowned for its white-sand beaches that abut the turquoise sea. Stunning cliffs meet crystal clear waters, and migratory birds congregate in the wetlands. It’s a great spot for sunning, swimming, kayaking, or relaxing discovery walks.

Mallorca offers some of the best beaches in Spain – if not the Mediterranean. In fact, there are more than 250 white-sand beaches along the coast, offering charterers plenty of unique places to relax, enjoy a refreshing cocktail, and work on their tans. Santa Ponsa, in the southwest, is a favorite. With its vibrant prominent and adjacent pine forest, Santa Ponsa is the perfect setting for an afternoon on the beach.

Mallorca’s ideal weather makes this one of the Mediterranean’s golf meccas. Luxury courses dot the island, offering serious and scratch golfers alike, an opportunity to play a round or two. Try Son Vida, near Palma. The course offers incredible views of the Cathedral de Palma. And Real Bendinat Golf is a stunning course, situated near Bendinat Castle.

Spain, of course, produces some of the best wines in all of Europe. And that’s true in Mallorca. With more than 70 cellars or bodegas, the island’s historic wine industry is an oenophile’s dream. If you’re going for the wine, schedule your boat rental in May, during the island’s annual Wine Days Mallorca festival. The festival features the best of the best in Spanish wine-making.

Mallorca – and its neighbor Ibiza – have a reputation for their lively nightclubs. And if dancing is your aim, there’s plenty of places to let your hair down on the island. The artsy Santa Catalina district offers some of the best nightlife on the island, as well as the nearby Paseo Maritimo neighborhood.
