The bow of the catamaran skims the turquoise edge of Mallorca’s north coast, spray tasting of salt and citrus as cliffs slide past like pages. On a five‑hour loop from Port d'Alcúdia the Anacaona drops anchor in hidden coves — Coll Baix and Cala d'Engossalba — where sea and rock trade places in sharp, sunlit contrasts.

The bow of the catamaran skims the turquoise edge of Mallorca’s north coast, spray tasting of salt and citrus as cliffs slide past like pages. On a five‑hour loop from Port d'Alcúdia the Anacaona drops anchor in hidden coves — Coll Baix and Cala d'Engossalba — where sea and rock trade places in sharp, sunlit contrasts.
This stretch of the Bay of Pollença is carved from Miocene limestone; cliffs and pebble coves show fossil layers and karst shapes that once hosted Phoenician and later Roman sailors. Fishing villages nearby grew into holiday harbors while local cuisine kept a simple focus: grilled meats, tomatoes and freshly caught fish. From the deck you’ll see Formentor’s distant ridge and Aucanada lighthouse standing watch — features that have guided mariners for centuries.
Practically, expect an easy, family‑friendly outing with snorkeling, kayak use, net lounging and a BBQ served onboard (chicken, pork, sausages, pasta salad, bread, fruit). Two drinks are included with the meal; a bar runs all day. The itinerary can shift depending on wind and safety; crew briefings and basic safety gear are provided.
Plan for sun and wind: reef‑safe sunscreen, a waterproof phone pouch and a light windbreaker will make a big difference. If you get seasick, take preventative measures before boarding. Arrive at the Passeig Marítim kiosk near the tourist office at least 20 minutes early; stroller access is available and public transport serves the port. With sensible prep, this cruise blends relaxed sea time with short swims and coastal geology for a solid half‑day of Mediterranean adventure.
