This private boat trip in Menorca explores the north-east coast, the wildest on the island: dark rock cliffs, golden-sand coves with no buildings and water so clear you can see the bottom from the boat. We leave the Port of Mahón and head north through s'Albufera des Grau Natural Park, stopping to swim and snorkel in coves you can almost only reach by sea.

FAQ

Questions about the north-east coast route

What will we see on the north-east coast route in Menorca?

It’s the wildest coast on the island, inside s'Albufera des Grau Natural Park. The usual stops are Illa d'en Colom, Cala Rambla, Cala Tortuga, Cala Presili, Favàritx lighthouse, Mongofre beach, Macar de sa Llosa and Son Saura beach.

How far we go depends on how many hours you book and on the sea conditions.

Where does the north-east coast route leave from?

We leave from the Port of Mahón.

We’ll send you the exact meeting point when we confirm your booking.

How long is the route and how much does it cost?

You can book it for 4 hours (10:00–14:00 or 15:00–19:00), 6 hours (10:00–16:00) or a full day (10:00–18:00).

On the Karnic SL601, for up to 5 people, it costs from €420, and on the Beneteau Flyer 7, for up to 7, from €490. The price is per boat, with skipper and VAT included. Fuel is paid separately based on consumption.

How many places do we visit in 4, 6 or 8 hours?

In 4 hours we visit the first six stops: Illa d'en Colom, Cala Rambla, Cala Tortuga, Cala Presili, Favàritx lighthouse and Mongofre.

In 6 or 8 hours we reach them all, including Macar de sa Llosa and Son Saura, and even a few more, with more time to swim.

Can we choose the coves?

Yes. It’s a private trip, so you can tell the skipper what you feel like: more swimming, more snorkelling or a particular cove. If the sea doesn’t allow it, the skipper adapts the route to always sail along the most sheltered coast.

Is the route suitable for families or for people who don’t often go out on boats?

Yes. The skipper sails at the group’s pace and stops at calm coves for swimming. No experience is needed.

Is it better in the morning or the afternoon?

In the morning the sea is usually calmer. In the afternoon the light on the cliffs is beautiful and there are fewer boats in the coves. Both work well for this route.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

Safety comes first. If the sea isn’t right, we’ll suggest another route along a sheltered coast or a change of date. If we can’t find another date, we’ll refund 100%.
