The price to rent a catamarán in Palma ranges between €2500 and €50000 per week, depending on the vessel size, season, included services, and whether you choose bareboat or skippered charter.
Palma de Mallorca is one of the most sought-after nautical destinations in the Mediterranean, and for good reason: crystal-clear waters, dreamy coves, world-class marinas, and a gastronomic and cultural offering that turns any voyage into an unforgettable experience. In this guide, we break down everything you need to know to plan your charter successfully.
Rental costs are not fixed; they vary according to several key factors:
The most in-demand catamarans in Palma include models such as the Lagoon 46, Fountaine Pajot Saona 47, Leopard 48, and the exclusive Lagoon Seventy 8. The larger the vessel and the more equipment it has, the higher the price.
High season (July to mid-September) considerably increases rates. For example, a half-day catamaran excursion for events can rise from €1,170 in low season to €1,900 in peak summer.
Bareboat rental is more affordable, but requires a valid sailing license. If you need a skipper, the additional cost averages around €328 per day.
Weekly rentals usually offer better value for money than daily ones. Weekly charters in Mallorca typically range between $2,420 and $5,700 depending on the platform.
The ideal sailing season in Palma runs from May to October, with stable winds and pleasant temperatures. However, spring and autumn offer better rates, fewer crowds, and excellent sailing conditions thanks to the steady Mediterranean sea breeze.
From the Real Club Náutico de Palma or Port de Palma, you can set course for spectacular coves such as Cala Azul or Cala Portals, or venture towards the Andratx coast, Cabrera National Park, or even cross over to Ibiza.
- Book at least 3-6 months in advance if traveling during high season.
- Check whether the price includes insurance, final cleaning, snorkel or paddleboard equipment, and fuel consumption.
- For private events (from 15 up to 140 guests), there are specific catamarans with onboard catering and barbecue services.
