Sunset Speed: Fast Boat VIP to Aucanada Lighthouse in Alcudia Bay

On a Fast Boat Sunset VIP cruise from Puerto De Alcudia, you ride the warm, blue sweep of Alcudia Bay out toward the squat silhouette of Aucanada Lighthouse. The launch point is Puerto De Alcudia, Alcudiamar 39.8400386, 3.1328248, 07400 Alcudia, Illes Balears, Spain, and within minutes a speeding hull leaves the marina bustle behind. This evening outing pairs the human urgency of a fast boat with the slow, deliberate work of light: as the sun drops, the bay’s water shifts from bright Mediterranean turquoise to molten bronze. Key features are immediate and cinematic: the arc of Alcudia Bay, the low rocky islet holding Aucanada Lighthouse, and the broad horizon where sun, sea and sky meet. The coastline here is part of Mallorca’s limestone platform, with shallow shelves and clear water that make snorkeling rewarding; the boat stops in a protected cove so passengers can slip into the sea and inspect underwater meadows of Posidonia and small reef fish. A free glass of cava punctuates the sunset, a small ceremony as the sky deepens. What makes this trip stand out is scale and pacing. It’s not a long, languid cruise: the fast boat covers more water in less time, so you visit prime vantage points for light and shelter before crowds gather. The VIP feel comes from intimate group sizes and an orientation toward comfort—cushioned seating, attentive crew and a route tuned to the best photographic angles. The ride itself provides another attraction: coastal cliffs and headlands that reveal Mallorca’s folded carbonate terrain, and open sea where seabirds wheel and the chance of a passing dolphin is real. Practical details matter. The launch is at Puerto De Alcudia; confirm check-in times and arrival at the dock. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a light wind layer, and water shoes for boarding. This trip suits visitors staying in Alcudia, Port d’Alcudia or nearby Playa de Muro who want one clear, elegant evening on the water. Locally this service complements Alcudia’s beach culture by offering a maritime perspective few visitors take: the lighthouse has long been a local point of reference for sailors and the inlet waters host seagrass beds vital to the Balearic marine ecosystem. For photographers, the light here is reliable in summer and spectacular in shoulder seasons. For anyone drawn to sea-and-sky evenings, the Fast Boat Sunset VIP delivers a compact, high-impact experience that feels both celebratory and distinctly Mallorcan. Crew brief passengers on safety, offer concise local tips about nearby shore restaurants, and steer close enough for clear views without landing, protecting fragile shore habitats. Book ahead in high season; the VIP runs earlier than standard departures, ideal for couples or small groups seeking an elevated, memorable end to a Mallorca day.
