itineraries for holiday sailors |
Sailing round Mallorca / from Palma de MallorcaSaturday Checkin and shopping. Supermarkets are close and Palma is worth some hours shopping. Recommended is a short trip to get used to the boat - free berthing in home-base! Evenings: visit the old town of Palma de Mallorca and enjoy one of Mallorca´s famous places, a "cellar" (reservation of a table recommended) Sunday Sailing
from Palma
de Mallorca to Cabrera, the natural
preserved area has limitations for moorings - in summer ask a permit
early,
because the Coast Guard sends all boats without permit out...no
matter what time and weather! Montag From Cabrera it is a nice daytrip to Porto Cristo distance about 30 nm – sailing time about 6-7 hours Tuesday Ahead we sail to the big bay and harbour of Alcudia distance about 33 nm – sailing time about 7-8 hours Wednesday From Alcudia sailing around the northeastern cape of Mallorca, the Cabo Formentor and along the beautiful mountain coastline of northern Mallorca to Puerto de Sóller, distance about 35 nm – sailing time about 7-8 hours Puerto de Soller has a Marina and the portside of is nice, but the bars and restaurants on the harbourside and close to the ferry-stops are very expensive at very low quality! Some nice restaurants are about 300m away on the inner bayside, where you can find several nice places. One of it is directly on the beach (follow the bay-curve to it´s beach-end!), the place and quality-price-ratio is ok and the ambiance is very nice! For an excursion, one can take the old street-train and visit the city of Soller 3km away (2.50 €/oneway). The old spanish city of Soller can be seen, the central place offers several bars and restaurants. If you have some more time, enjoy a walk to the small villages of Fornalutx and Binairitx (2-3 km walking through fields, very nice). One can as well take the train to Mallorca (45 minutes) from the train station, where you can visit an exhibition of modern spanish artists like Picasso and others! Thursday From Puerto de Soller to Port d´Andratx distance about 27 nm – sailing time about 5-6 hours Friday It is
not very far from Puerto d´Andratx to Palma de Mallorca Note, that the gas-station in Palma de Mallorca is full usually on Fridays
and that can cause VERY LONG WAITINGTIME! It is recommended to fill the fuel-tank
in Puerto Portals. The complete trip will be between 220 and 270 nm! |
