More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Stepping off the quay, the Mediterranean pulls at the hull like a dare — clear water flashing turquoise as the engine answers under your hand. On a 5‑metre runabout with room for four, you become the captain for a half or full day, skimming from Cala Bassa to Cala Conta or exploring the quieter coves of the northwest: Cala Gració, Gracioneta and Cala Salada.

Watch the wind windows
Check local forecasts for Levante (easterly) or Poniente (westerly) winds; stronger winds can make shallow coves uncomfortable to approach.
Sun protection is essential
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen, a hat and long‑sleeve sun protection — reflection off the water intensifies UV exposure.
Use the navigation card
The operator provides a chart — follow marked shallow areas and no‑wake zones, especially near Isla Conejera and narrow approaches.
Timing for crowds
Depart early or late to avoid midday boat traffic and secure calmer anchorages for swimming and snorkeling.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects skin and local marine life while exposed to intense sun on open water.
summer
Dry bag (small)
Keeps phone, keys and snacks dry during swims and when anchoring in rocky coves.
Polarized sunglasses and hat
Reduce glare for navigation and protect eyes from reflected sunlight.
summer
Light windbreaker or thin layers
Even summer evenings or an unexpected Poniente can bring a cool chop; a lightweight layer helps.
