Just a short cruise from the vibrant shores of Mallorca lies a world apart—a sanctuary of pristine nature, crystalline waters, and profound tranquility. This is the Cabrera Archipelago, a protected National Park and one of the Mediterranean's last untouched paradises. For the discerning traveller, exploring Cabrera by private yacht is not just a trip; it is an exclusive immersion into the raw beauty of the Balearic Islands. With Bluebnc Yachting, Mallorca's leading yacht charter company, your journey to this marine haven is seamless, luxurious, and utterly unforgettable.

A Voyage to the Heart of the Mediterranean's Last Sanctuary

Cabrera National Park is more than just an island; it is an archipelago comprising 19 uninhabited islets, a designated Maritime-Terrestrial National Park since 1991. This protected status has preserved its delicate ecosystem, making it a jewel of biodiversity. A yacht charter to Cabrera is a step back in time, offering a glimpse of what the Mediterranean was like centuries ago. The waters here are legendary for their clarity, revealing a vibrant underwater world teeming with over 200 species of fish, dolphins, sea turtles, and a kaleidoscope of marine flora.

As you approach the main island, the rugged coastline, sculpted by wind and sea, gives way to a large, sheltered natural harbour—the heart of the park. The absence of permanent residents or sprawling developments means the landscape is dominated by native vegetation, including over 450 botanical species, and the air is filled with the calls of protected seabirds like the Balearic shearwater and Audouin's gull.

Your Exclusive Anchorage in Paradise

To maintain its pristine condition, access to Cabrera is strictly regulated. Anchoring is forbidden to protect the vital Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows. Instead, a limited number of mooring buoys are available within the main harbour, and securing one requires a permit, especially during the peak season from May to October. This exclusivity ensures that your experience remains intimate and peaceful, far from the summer crowds.

This is where the expertise of Bluebnc Yachting becomes invaluable. As part of our bespoke charter service, we handle the entire permit application process on your behalf, ensuring your visit is approved and perfectly scheduled. An overnight stay is highly recommended; as the day-trip boats depart, a profound silence descends upon the bay, leaving you to enjoy a spectacular sunset and a canopy of stars in complete serenity. From the deck of your private motor yacht, sailing yacht, or spacious catamaran, you will experience the true magic of Cabrera.

Unforgettable Experiences on Your Cabrera Yacht Charter

While the peace and beauty of the anchorage are a destination in themselves, Cabrera offers several unique experiences for those who venture ashore.

Explore the Historic Cabrera Castle

A short but rewarding hike from the harbour leads to a 14th-century castle perched majestically above the entrance to the bay. Originally built as a watchtower against pirate raids, it offers breathtaking panoramic views across the archipelago and back towards the coastline of Mallorca. It is the perfect spot to appreciate the scale and isolation of this unique environment.

Discover the Magic of Sa Cova Blava (The Blue Cave)

Accessible only by sea, the Blue Cave is one of Cabrera's most iconic natural wonders. In the late afternoon, sunlight enters the cavern at a low angle, illuminating the interior with an ethereal, deep blue light that reflects off the water. Taking a tender to swim and snorkel in these glowing waters is a truly magical experience and a highlight of any charter itinerary.

Hiking, Snorkeling, and Wildlife Encounters

The island features several well-marked hiking trails that meander through its wild landscape, leading to small coves, historical sites, and viewpoints. The waters of the park are a snorkeler's dream, offering unparalleled visibility and the chance to encounter a rich diversity of marine life in its natural habitat. Keep an eye out for playful dolphins that often accompany yachts on their journey to and from the park.
