Mallorca Sunset Catamaran Cruise: 3-Hour BBQ Sail from Magaluf | Catamaran | Sailing

On Mallorca’s southwest coast, the 3-Hour Sunset Catamaran Cruise launches from Magaluf’s Arenal pier and delivers a compact, carefree evening aboard a spacious twin-hull. The trip is simple to love: a slow sail along Mallorca’s coastal edge, a chilled deck with hammocks and sun pads, and a barbecue that fills the air with smoked seafood and grilled vegetables as the sky softens.

This cruise places you on the water at the exact hour when the island’s limestone coves and sandy bays take on a copper glow. Expect wide views of the Mediterranean, rocky headlands that drop to scrub-covered slopes, and small beaches that are best appreciated from the sea. Natural highlights include the clear, aquamarine water and seasonal seabirds that swing around the boat; dolphins are occasional visitors, and on clear evenings the horizon line is a sharp, postcard-ready silhouette.

The experience is designed for groups, couples, and families: the catamaran’s open layout, capacity for up to 100, and crew-focused hospitality keep things relaxed. The onboard barbecue is more than a snack—it's the social anchor of the evening, a chance to share plates while the captain eases the vessel into the best sunset-facing spots. Crew members organize lockers at the port and brief everyone on safety and timing; arrive at Arenal at least 15 minutes early to check luggage and settle in.

Why this trip stands out in Mallorca: it turns the everyday sunset into an event. Compared with a shore-based view, the catamaran removes the crowd and offers a low, panoramic perspective that highlights coastal geology and light. It’s equally suited to a romantic evening or a lively group outing, and because the route hugs the coast you’ll see features you can’t from the road.

Practical details: the sail lasts roughly three hours, includes safety briefings, and allows free cancellation up to 24 hours prior. The activity is accessible to most people but requires basic mobility to board the boat; swimmers will enjoy optional dips in calm bays. Bring a light jacket for the evening breeze, sun protection for daytime departures, and a camera for the low-angled light.

Operated by watersports-mallorca-ltd, the trip runs most evenings during the high season and can handle groups up to its listed capacity.
