The crystal-clear waters off Cala Bona, on Mallorca’s sunlit eastern coast, are made for adventure, and Moonfish Glassbottom Catamaran invites travelers to experience them from a uniquely immersive vantage point aboard the GLASSBOTTOM MOONFISH. This vessel offers two signature cruises: a 3.5-hour voyage that navigates serene Mediterranean coves and dramatic caves, and a shorter 2-hour-and-15-minute trip connecting Cala Bona to Porto Cristo. Both journeys blend effortless sailing with moments for swimming and discovery, weather permitting.
Setting sail from Cala Bona, a quaint harbor known for its vibrant marina and calm seas, the longer excursion traces a scenic route past Sa Coma and Cala Romantica before entering the famed Pirate’s Cave. This natural limestone formation, carved by millennia of Mediterranean waves, reveals sharp contrasts of shadow and sunlight beneath the waterline. The boat’s glass bottom showcases this underwater terrain—where seagrasses sway and colorful fish dart—without the need to dive, making it accessible for all ages.
A highlight awaits at Cala Varques, an inviting cove with clear turquoise waters and gently sloping rocky beaches, perfect for a swim or snorkeling if conditions allow. The shorter trip focuses on the coastal stretch to Porto Cristo, skimming near the Punta de n’Amer nature reserve with its rugged cliffs and resilient pine groves, culminating in a refreshing stop at Cal Morlanda.
