Details

The Balearic Islands, an archipelago off Spain’s eastern coast, boast some of the Mediterranean's clearest waters and most inviting landscapes. Among these is Mallorca—an island where limestone cliffs rise sharply from cobalt bays and hidden coves invite quiet reflection. Charter Marine offers a unique way to experience this coast with their Paseo en Barco Boira, a seven-hour journey that places you directly on the water’s surface aboard the elegant Boira vessel.

This maritime adventure reveals Mallorca’s rugged coastline from a perspective few get to see. The limestone rock formations, shaped by millennia of wind and sea, create dramatic cliffs punctuated by small, secluded beaches accessible only by boat. The waters around Mallorca are also a hotspot for marine life, including diverse fish species and, occasionally, dolphins. The tranquility and vast open sky offer a welcome contrast to the island’s lively interior.

Charter Marine prides itself on intimate, high-quality boating experiences that capture the island’s natural beauty without crowds or rush. Their Boira journey navigates through areas around Illes Balears, reaching vantage points where you can admire the iconic rock arches, caves, and sea terraces that define Mallorca’s coast. This trip is as much about immersion in nature as it is about winding down and soaking in the Mediterranean sun.

What sets this company apart is the personalized, relaxed nature of the trip, ideal for travelers who want to connect with the sea and coastline beyond the usual tourist routes. Safety and local expertise are priorities, making it accessible whether you’re an avid sailor or simply seeking a day on the water.

This excursion is a must for anyone visiting Balearic Islands seeking a distinctive maritime experience that highlights Mallorca’s coastal wonders with the skill and care of Charter Marine.
