Bluefin Tuna Charter at The Supermarket — Big Game Fishing in Port d'Alcúdia

Port d'Alcúdia, on the northern shore of Mallorca in Illes Balears, Spain, is the launch point for an eight-hour bluefin tuna charter that puts anglers straight onto some of the Mediterranean’s most productive pelagic water. The trip marketed as Big Game Fishing For Bluefin Tuna (Whisky) centers on a spot the crew calls "The Supermarket," an offshore congregation where giant bluefin—100 kg fish in regular season and beasts topping 200 kg in May and June—come to feed.

This is not a gentle day on the water. Expect sustained runs, long bouts of strip-and-hold, and the physical conversation between angler and fish that defines big-game sportfishing. When tuna activity slows the charter switches tactics to trolling for little tunny, mahi mahi and spearfish, expanding the range of possible catches and keeping action on the lines. The vessel departs from Port d'Alcúdia and runs far enough offshore to put you where pelagics patrol; meeting points vary depending on the boat and will be emailed to guests.

From a practical standpoint, the trip is eight hours and suitable for most guests, but under-16s must be accompanied by an adult. The operator allows English, Spanish and German languages aboard; be aware departures are subject to prevailing weather conditions. Excessive alcohol consumption is prohibited and the company reserves the right to terminate a charter without refund if guests compromise safety.

What makes this charter a standout in Mallorca’s outdoor offerings is scale and access: few Mediterranean experiences pair the chance to battle world-class bluefin with a single-day commitment. For anglers chasing torque and endurance, "The Supermarket" delivers regular encounters with fish that test tackle, technique and nerve. The mix of species after the tuna window adds variety and rewards anglers who can shift quickly between techniques.

Beyond the physical challenge, the trip connects you to Mallorca’s maritime culture: generations of locals have fished these waters, and modern charters translate that knowledge into seasonal timing and bait selection. Crew members share practical lore on reading birds, surface boils and line tension—skills that turn chance into opportunity. Photographers will find dramatic action shots of airborne tuna and boiling water; anglers will find education in patience, timing and gear discipline.

Plan for an early start, bring sturdy tackle and sun protection, and expect rolling seas as you transit to the feeding grounds. The trip supports sportfishing tourism that has become a notable part of Port d'Alcúdia’s coastal economy; visitors should follow local rules and any catch regulations in force. Whether you’re a seasoned big-game angler chasing a personal best or a curious visitor wanting a high-adrenaline day on the Mediterranean, this charter offers an honest, no-frills route to the kind of fish stories that are earned, not fabricated.
