YOUR BOAT FROM ALCÚDIA TO FORMENTOR

Daily boat trip to Formentor Beach and Formentor Lighthouse, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The best way to visit Formentor Beach and Cape Formentor.

We will depart from Puerto de Alcudia and cruise through Alcudia Bay, passing by Aucanada Lighthouse. We will then continue towards Cap Pinar and Pinar Lighthouse before reaching the beautiful Formentor Beach, where you will have time to swim and relax. We will sail along the Formentor peninsula to the spectacular Formentor Lighthouse, passing by Cala Murta and Cala en Gossalba.

Our exciting boat trip starts at Puerto de Alcudia, skirting the bay and making several stops to pick up passengers at different points along the way. Pick-up stops include strategic points along the coast for the convenience of all our passengers.

Once the pickup is completed, we head towards Formentor Beach, passing by the picturesque Aucanada Lighthouse, located on a small island that offers spectacular views.

Our journey continues towards Cap Pinar and Pinar Lighthouse, exploring the natural beauty of Pollensa Bay until we reach the Formentor Peninsula. Finally, we arrive at the beautiful Formentor Beach, where we will stop for an hour and a half. Here, you will have time to swim, relax on the beach, and enjoy the stunning landscape. Formentor Beach is famous for its fine white sand and crystal-clear waters. It offers a variety of amenities, including sun loungers and umbrellas, showers, toilets, a restaurant, and several beach bars where you can purchase drinks and snacks. It is an ideal place for both families and those seeking a paradisiacal spot to relax.

After our stop at Formentor Beach, we will continue along the coast of the Formentor Peninsula to Formentor Lighthouse. This lighthouse, located at the northernmost point of the island, rises above a cliff 210 metres above sea level and offers spectacular panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and the rugged Mallorcan coastline. Built in 1863, Formentor Lighthouse is one of the most important in Mallorca and access to it via a winding road is an experience in itself. It is worth noting that traffic to Cap de Formentor is restricted for cars during the summer. Therefore, the only way to visit this impressive site is by bus or by boat.

During the journey, we will pass by the charming Cala Murta and Cala en Gossalba, where you can admire the stunning rocky coastline and turquoise blue waters. We will see the Formentor Lighthouse and Cape, offering unparalleled panoramic views.

Finally, we return directly to Puerto de Alcudia, concluding our wonderful trip. It is important to note that if the weather conditions are adverse, we may not be able to reach Cape Formentor, as the sea in that area tends to be particularly rough. In such cases, we will adjust the route to ensure the safety and comfort of all passengers. Additionally, if Coll Baix Beach is very crowded or if the weather does not permit, we will not stop at this beach.

Join us for an unforgettable experience, exploring the stunning beaches and coastal landscapes of Formentor!

A well-rounded excursion with incredible views

2 de October de 2024

We went to Cap de Formentor and the excursion was fantastic, especially considering the price, which we found very reasonable. The best part was the panoramic views of the coast — absolutely breathtaking. We also had a swim stop in crystal-clear water, and the kids had a great time with the boat’s slides. The crew was super friendly and fun, which made the trip even more enjoyable. I fully recommend it to anyone visiting Mallorca.

Natalia Ramírez

A top-notch boat trip

2 de September de 2024

Everything was perfect from the very beginning. The route offered spectacular views of the northern coast, especially as we approached Cap de Formentor. The stop at the beach was exactly what we were looking for – clear water, white sand and enough time to relax and go for a swim.

The boat was modern and comfortable, with plenty of shade and space for everyone. On the way back, we enjoyed a cold drink from the onboard bar while taking in the views. The crew were kind and attentive throughout.

We would definitely do it again. It’s the perfect activity for enjoying the sea at a relaxed pace.

An amazing trip

20 de August de 2024

We loved this catamaran trip. It was definitely one of the best things we did during our holidays in Mallorca. From the moment we left Alcudia, the views were stunning, especially as we approached Cap de Formentor with its cliffs and turquoise waters.

The stop at Formentor beach was perfect. We had an hour to relax, swim and snorkel in a picture-perfect setting. The boat was very comfortable, with plenty of space to move around, sunbathe and enjoy the scenery.

The onboard bar was a great bonus. We had a refreshing drink while sailing, with good prices and several options to choose from. The overall atmosphere was really calm, perfect for disconnecting and going with the flow of the sea. We’d do it again without a second thought.

A lovely trip, but best to arrive early

15 de August de 2024

We really enjoyed the excursion. The route was beautiful, and we had plenty of time to swim and relax at Formentor beach. The boat was quite full though, so I’d recommend getting there early to grab a good spot. The crew were very friendly.

A highly recommended experience

12 de July de 2024

The boat ride to Formentor beach was amazing. The boat was spacious and very comfortable, and the scenery along the way was absolutely stunning. We stopped for a swim in a beautiful cove, and then had plenty of time to relax on the beach. For the price, it’s definitely worth it.

A perfect plan with kids

5 de June de 2024

I went with my 8-year-old son and we had a great time. The views along the way were amazing, and the swimming stops were the highlight of the day. The crew were very kind and attentive, and you could tell they really enjoyed what they were doing, which made the experience even better. A lovely activity to share as a family.

Nice trip, but with room for improvement

3 de June de 2024

The boat ride was pleasant, and the views of Cap de Formentor were truly spectacular. We had a short stop to swim from the boat, which was nice, and a bit more time at Formentor beach, although it was quite crowded.

Some points of interest were mentioned along the way, but the explanations were fairly brief. The boat had a bar on board, which was convenient, but we would have appreciated a bit more information about the area. Overall, it was a decent experience, though we feel it could be even better with a few small improvements.
