YACHT CHARTER IN THE BALEARIC ISLANDS FOR OVER 30 YEARS
YACHT CHARTER IN THE BALEARIC ISLANDS FOR OVER 30 YEARS
May is coming to an end and the Mediterranean is starting to awaken. Temperatures are rising, the sea is getting warmer, and the days are stretching out until nearly nine in the evening. If there is one time of year when Mallorca calls you from the sea, it is now. And the best way to answer that call is with a great boat rental in Mallorca.
June is just around the corner, bringing with it the first real wave of summer heat on the island. Temperatures are already consistently above 25°C, the Tramontana winds begin to ease, and the sea offers extraordinary conditions: calm waters, crystal-clear visibility, and coves that are still practically untouched.
Unlike August, when the ports and most famous coves become overcrowded, renting a boat in Mallorca at the end of May gives you the best of both worlds: summer has already arrived, but the tourist crowds have not. The coves of Mondragó, the coastline of Artà, and the cliffs of Cap de Formentor still feel like your own private paradise, with plenty of space to anchor peacefully and enjoy the sea without the crowds.
The range of boat rentals in Mallorca is incredibly wide and suits every type of experience and budget:
Sailboat rentals in May 2026: Perfect for lovers of pure sailing. Options are available both with and without a skipper.
Catamaran rentals in May 2026: Stability, space, and comfort. Ideal for groups or families.
Motorboats: The most versatile option for those who want to explore long distances in a short amount of time.
RIBs and inflatable boats: Ideal for discovering small hidden coves or as support vessels.
Luxury yacht rentals in May 2026: For those seeking a premium experience with maximum comfort on board.
Places you cannot miss during your voyage
With a rented boat in Mallorca at the end of May, these are some of the most sought-after destinations that you can still enjoy without the crowds:
Cala Murta and Cala Figuera (Formentor): Accessible almost exclusively by sea, they offer wild and incomparable beauty.
Cala en Gossalba and Sa Calobra: Located on the northwest coast beneath the cliffs of the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Cala Varques and Cala Magraner (Manacor): Virgin coves on the east coast with turquoise waters and white sand, inaccessible by road.
Illa Dragonera: The uninhabited islet facing Sant Elm, a protected natural reserve with incredibly transparent waters.
There is no better way to welcome the Mediterranean summer than from the deck of a boat, with the wind on your face and the deep blue waters of the Balearic Sea stretching endlessly to the horizon.
When it comes to boat hire in Mallorca, choosing your departure point is key. The island has an outstanding network of marinas and sailing clubs that let you set sail from any stretch of coastline depending on your itinerary.
The largest and most iconic on the island. Located on the Paseo Marítimo in Palma, Club de Mar is the natural starting point if you want to explore the Bay of Palma or head towards the Serra de Tramuntana from the sea. With berths for over 600 vessels, its facilities are top-class.
With over 130 years of history, the Real Club Náutico de Palma is the historic benchmark of Balearic sailing. Its privileged location, beside the Cathedral and the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, makes it one of the most photogenic marinas in the Mediterranean. Ideal for heading south towards the waters off Calvià.
Nestled in the Bay of Palma, Club Náutico El Arenal offers easy access to the southern coves: Cala Pi, Es Trenc and the untouched coastline between Llucmajor and Campos. A perfect area for those who prefer calmer, sheltered waters and white sandy seabeds.
Designed by Philippe Starck, Port Adriano is one of the most exclusive marinas in the Mediterranean. It makes a perfect base for exploring the Calvià coastline and the coves of western Mallorca: Cala Portals Vells, Cala Figuera de Calvià, and the stunning Illot de Sa Porrassa.
In the southeast of the island, Club Náutico Cala d'Or opens the door to one of Mallorca's most spectacular sailing areas: the Mondragó Natural Park, Cala Llombards, and the coastline between Santanyí and Felanitx. Deep blue waters and countless coves reachable only by sea.
In the heart of the Llevant region, Porto Cristo is the gateway to Mallorca's eastern coastline. From here you can sail towards the Coves del Drach, the Cova dels Hams, or head north to discover Cala Millor, Cala Bona, and Cap de Pinar.
If northern Mallorca has stolen your heart, these two marinas are your best option. The Bay of Pollença and the Bay of Alcúdia are two of the safest and most beautiful anchorages on the island, with sheltered waters that are ideal for those new to sailing. And once you're out, the Cap de Formentor is just a bowsprit's length away.
At MallorcaNautic.com you will find one of the largest selections of boats for rent in Mallorca: from classic sailing yachts to the latest generation motor yachts, with or without a skipper, for one or two days or for a full week of sailing.
