Water Sports on a Yacht Charter: Everything You Need to Know
One of the greatest advantages of chartering a yacht in Mallorca is the access to world-class water sports in some of the Mediterranean's clearest water. Our all-inclusive packages include a full range of equipment, from paddleboards to jet skis, so you can make the most of every anchorage.
Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP)
Paddleboarding is the most popular water sport on our charters — and for good reason. Mallorca's sheltered calas provide flat, crystal-clear water that's perfect for beginners and experienced paddlers alike.
Best spots for SUP:
- Portals Vells — calm, shallow water with a sandy bottom
- Cala Mondragó — sheltered natural park with abundant marine life visible from the board
- Playa de Formentor — long, calm beach with stunning mountain backdrop
- Es Trenc — turquoise water so clear you can see fish from the board
- Palma Bay — wide open water with plenty of space
- Southwest coast — cruise along the cliffs between Port Adriano and Portals Vells
- Es Trenc to Colònia de Sant Jordi — long stretches of open water
- Cala Varques — crystal-clear water with underwater caves to explore
- Cabrera National Park — rich marine life in protected waters
- Cala Figuera (Formentor) — deep, clear water with rocky formations
- Cabrera National Park — the richest marine life in the western Mediterranean
- Cala Mondragó Natural Park — protected waters with grouper, octopus, and colourful wrasse
- Isla Dragonera — underwater rock formations teeming with fish
- Portals Vells caves — explore sea caves with your snorkel gear
- Sa Calobra — paddle into the Torrent de Pareis gorge
- Cala Deià — explore the rocky coastline below the artists' village
- Portals Vells — kayak between the three beaches and into the cave chapel
Tip: Early morning is the best time for paddleboarding — the water is glassy calm before the afternoon sea breeze picks up.
Jet Skiing
For those seeking adrenaline, jet skiing around Mallorca's coastline is an unforgettable experience. Our fleet includes Yamaha WaveRunners that can reach speeds of up to 60 km/h.
Best spots for jet skiing:
Safety note: All jet ski use is supervised by our crew. Life jackets are mandatory, and a brief safety briefing is provided before your first ride.
Sea Bob (Underwater Scooter)
The Sea Bob is the ultimate luxury water toy — an underwater scooter that lets you glide through the water like a dolphin. It's the most requested piece of equipment on our premium charters.
Best spots for Sea Bob:
Snorkelling
Mallorca's marine life is surprisingly rich, especially in protected areas. Our yachts carry professional-grade snorkelling equipment (masks, fins, and snorkels) for all guests.
