The engine thunders, spray hisses, and the coastline of Alcúdia blurs into a ribbon of cliffs and beaches as the captain eases the throttle. On this 60-minute loop you feel the bay pushing back—waves lifting and plunging the hull—while Aucanada lighthouse slips past like a coastal landmark checking your speed.
The Bay of Alcúdia sits on Mallorca’s northern shore, carved from limestone and shelved by shallow sandbanks that feed long beaches. The town of Alcúdia grew from the Roman settlement of Pollentia; fishing and small-scale trade shaped the coast visible from the boat. Around Coll Baix the rock forms a tucked cove where clear water pools over Posidonia meadows, a living seagrass that supports local marine life.
The tour mixes adrenaline with a swim stop. With only a dozen passengers this is an intimate ride—fast runs across open water, then a drop in for snorkeling in a sheltered cove. Expect grab handles, life jackets, and brisk turns that lift the pulse as much as the spray.
Practical guide: the trip runs about 60 minutes, with short high-speed sections up to 90 km/h and a single swim/snorkel stop. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a towel, and motion-sickness medicine if you’re prone to seasickness. Wear closed-toe water shoes for boarding and a light wind layer for the return. This excursion is not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with serious back or heart conditions; operators will usually require basic mobility to get on and off the boat.
Book morning slots for calmer seas and clearer snorkeling; late afternoon brings softer light but choppier water. Respect local rules—avoid anchoring on Posidonia beds and pack out any trash to keep Alcúdia’s bay healthy.
