Overview

Cabrera National Park is the crown jewel of Mediterranean marine conservation — an uninhabited archipelago of 19 islands and islets lying 10 nautical miles south of Mallorca. With strict visitor limits and pristine waters, Cabrera offers an experience that feels like discovering the Mediterranean as it was centuries ago. The legendary Blue Cave (Cova Blava) with its ethereal light, the 14th-century castle overlooking the harbour, and some of the best diving in the Balearics make this a must-visit charter destination. Permits are required and limited, making a private yacht charter the most exclusive way to experience this natural wonder.
