Why rent a sailboat in the Balearic Islands?
In the open sea off the Costa Brava on the Mediterranean coast, discover the archipelago of the Balearic Islands, the main sailing area in Spain. A sailboat charter in the Balearic Islands will take you on a voyage of discovery of its four islands, each with its own atmosphere and style. The Balearic Islands do, however, have several points in common: welcoming coves, beaches and breathtaking scenery, and perfect terrain for hiking and other outdoor activities.
The best places to sail in the Balearic Islands
The largest island in the archipelago, Mallorca, is an excellent point of departure for a sailboat charter in the Balearic Islands. You will appreciate its beautiful fine sandy beaches, which are every bit as good as the most beautiful seas in Asia. Discover the turquoise water of the beautifulAgulla beach, the wild beach of Es Trenc or the beaches of Cala Ratjada or Cap de Formentor. inland, you can visit the famous cathedral of Mallorca or tackle the hiking trails. Sailing east, you can discover the island of Menorca and its unspoiled landscapes. We recommend the wild beach of Cala Trebaluger, Cala d'Algariens, which is ideal for snorkeling, or the superb beach of Mitjana, which is very popular but irresistibly so. On the other side of the archipelago, adjust your course for Ibiza to party and enjoy world-famous evenings. Just next door, the tiny island of Formentera offers the opposite: nature and tranquility, and a high-end tourist crowd.
Useful advice for sailing in the Balearic Islands
Renting a sailboat in the Balearic Islands will allow you to sail from one island to another without much difficulty: 50 miles separate Mallorca from Ibiza, and barely 25 miles separate Mallorca and Menorca. The weather is generally sunny throughout the year, with a mild winter and a dry, hot summer. You will need to be vigilant of swells and winds, particularly the Tramontana, which can make sailing more difficult. If you wish, you can opt for a charter with a skipper, thanks to the professionals at Filovent, to accompany you on your sailing expedition.
