Yacht Charter FAQs
How much does it cost to charter a yacht in Mallorca?
Yacht charter prices in Mallorca vary depending on the yacht size, season, and itinerary. Premium day boats typically start from around €1.200 per day, while fully crewed luxury yachts and superyachts can exceed €50.000 per week during peak summer months. All quotations are clearly structured and explained in advance, including VAT and any additional expenses, so there are no surprises.
How long can we charter a yacht for?
Our minimum yacht charter in Mallorca is one full day (8 hours), allowing you to fully enjoy your time at sea without feeling rushed.
For a more immersive experience, we offer extended charters from 2–3 days up to one or two weeks — ideal for exploring different parts of Mallorca or cruising to nearby islands such as Ibiza or Menorca at a relaxed pace.
We also curate signature yacht experiences, including sunset champagne cruises, beach club escapes, and tailor-made day itineraries designed around your preferences.
What areas of Mallorca can we visit on a day charter?
Popular day charter routes include the south-west coast (Puerto Portals, Port Andratx, Palma Bay) and the spectacular north-west coastline along the Serra de Tramuntana (Valldemossa, Deià, Sa Foradada, Port de Sóller).
Your captain will always recommend the best itinerary based on sea conditions and your personal preferences.
What type of yachts do you offer?
We offer a carefully selected fleet of motor yachts and luxury day boats in Mallorca — from stylish open cruisers to fully crewed superyachts.
All yachts are professionally maintained, commercially licensed for charter in Spain, and meet the highest safety and quality standards.
Is fuel included in the charter price?
Fuel is typically not included unless clearly specified in the quotation. Consumption depends on the yacht selected and the distance travelled.
Before departure, your captain will provide an estimated fuel cost so there are no surprises.
Can we bring our own food and drinks on board?
Yes, you are welcome to bring your own snacks and beverages on board.
Alternatively, we can organise onboard catering, champagne service, gourmet platters, or restaurant reservations along your route. Many guests choose a combination of both for their Mallorca yacht charter.
Do you provide transfers to and from the marina?
Yes, we can arrange private transfers from your villa, hotel, or residence to the marina and back after your charter. Simply let us know when booking, and we will organise everything for you.
How far in advance should I book my charter?
For peak season (June, July, and August), we recommend booking your yacht charter in Mallorca at least 2–3 months in advance, as the most sought-after yachts are reserved early.
During spring and autumn, availability is generally more flexible, although weekends can still fill quickly.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety always comes first. If the captain determines that sea conditions are unsafe, we will offer an alternative date or a full refund in accordance with our charter policy.
Fortunately, Mallorca enjoys more than 300 days of sunshine per year, and weather cancellations are rare.
Are there any restrictions on where we can sail?
Certain areas of the Balearic Islands are environmentally protected. Your captain is fully familiar with permitted navigation zones and the best authorised anchorages.
We will plan your itinerary responsibly, respecting local regulations and marine conservation guidelines.
What safety equipment is on board?
All yachts are fully equipped in accordance with Spanish maritime law, including life jackets, first-aid kits, fire extinguishers, distress signals, and required safety systems.
Your captain will provide a safety briefing before departure.
Can we bring pets?
Some yachts allow small pets, others don’t. Please ask when booking, and we’ll find the best option if you wish to bring your dog.
