Why Explore the Balearic Islands on a Motor Yacht
The Balearic Islands' yachting gems, Mallorca and Ibiza, offer much more than just nightlife, and it is no wonder Spain is becoming one of our favorite charter destinations. The glistening waters surrounding these mountainous islands are ideal for paddleboarding, water skiing, or any other water sport that might take your fancy. With some delightfully hidden bays and coves, not forgetting the sublime Spanish produce, the Balearics are a great place to charter a crewed motor yacht.

Your 7-Day Mallorca to Ibiza Motor Yacht Itinerary Map
Day 1: Palma to Es Trenc
Meet your crew at Club de Mar in Palma de Mallorca and settle aboard as the yacht leaves the capital behind for the south coast. Your first destination is Es Trenc, a long stretch of fine white sand backed by dunes and the protected wetlands of Es Trenc-Salobrar de Campos. The shallow turquoise water immediately shifts the pace from arrival mode to island time.
Drop anchor and spend the afternoon slipping between the water and the deck, swimming and bringing out the yacht’s water toys while Mallorca’s low southern coastline stretches alongside you. As the afternoon light begins to soften, return onboard for a welcome dinner prepared by your crew. Dining on deck with your loved ones at anchor, with Es Trenc across the water, is a fitting first taste of the freedom a Balearic yacht charter offers.
Best Things to Do:
Relax on White Sand Beaches, Swim in Shallow Turquoise Water, Use the Water Toys, Dinner at Anchor

Day 2: Es Trenc to Cala Llamp and Sóller
Wake to breakfast onboard before cruising west to Cala Llamp, a natural bay near Port d’Andratx where rocky shores meet clear water over a seabed of sand and stone. The cove sits beneath Puig de Sa Talaia, giving the morning a distinctly different character from the wide sandy coastline of Es Trenc.
Spend the morning in the water, swimming and enjoying the yacht’s watersports equipment, before heading ashore for lunch at Gran Folies Beach Club. Back onboard, continue toward Mallorca’s northwest coast, passing Dragonera as sunset approaches.
Ahead, the landscape rises into the Serra de Tramuntana, the mountain range that defines much of western Mallorca and forms part of a UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape. Cruise toward Sóller for the evening, with the option of dinner at NENI before returning onboard for the night.
Best Things to Do:
Visit Rocky Coves, Watersports, Beach Club Lunches, Scenic Cruising, Sunset Views

Day 3: Sóller to Sa Calobra
Spend the morning ashore in Sóller, set within the Serra de Tramuntana in Mallorca’s northwest. The town grew around its fertile valley, historically known for citrus cultivation, and its streets mix traditional Mallorcan houses with architecture influenced by the island’s historic trading links with France.
Browse the shops and linger over lunch in town before returning to the yacht and cruising onward to Sa Calobra. Approaching from the water reveals one of the dramatic contrasts that makes Mallorca such a rewarding cruising ground: steep Tramuntana cliffs descend directly toward the Mediterranean, enclosing the cove around Sa Calobra and the mouth of the Torrent de Pareis.
Spend the afternoon at anchor with the cliffs rising around you before either remaining overnight or beginning the crossing toward Ibiza.
Best Things to Do:
Experience the Mallorcan Town Life, Shopping, Lunch Ashore, See Dramatic Cliffs, Scenic Anchorages

Day 4: Cala Xarraca to Cala Tarida, Ibiza
It's Ibiza time! Set your eyes on a different island as the yacht reaches Ibiza and Cala Xarraca. The scenery here introduces Ibiza through its natural coastline rather than its nightlife, with rocky headlands enclosing clear Mediterranean water.
Not only are there some rocky, jagged cliffs in the vicinity that provide some striking photo opportunities, but the still, transparent waters are another great spot for paddleboarding. The rejuvenating bath soothes your skin and is said to have healing properties for your whole body and mind. After your stress-free afternoon at the mud baths, the Cala Xarraca restaurant, run by the same family for over thirty years, is a magnificently traditional option for an evening meal. Spend the evening at anchor and soak up the Ibiza vibe.
Later, return onboard and cruise along Ibiza’s coast toward San Antonio and Cala Tarida. The west of the island places the yacht directly in the path of the evening light, so settle at anchor and watch your first Ibiza sunset from the deck as the sun drops toward the Mediterranean horizon.
Best Things to Do:
Swimming, Mud Baths, Paddleboarding, Visit Rocky Coves, Lunch Ashore, Dine Under Ibiza Sunsets

Day 5: Cala Tarida to Es Cubells
Begin the day in Cala Tarida with a swim from the yacht before heading ashore for lunch at Cotton Beach Club.
Once back onboard, let the afternoon revolve around the water. Swim, bring out the yacht’s water toys, or find a comfortable spot on deck as you continue south toward Es Cubells.
The pace slows again once you reach your anchorage. Spend the afternoon and evening onboard, moving easily between the sea and the yacht without the need for a schedule. Guests looking for a livelier taste of Ibiza can also head ashore for drinks at Blue Marlin before returning to the yacht.

Day 6: Es Cubells to Formentera and Espalmador
Cruise across to Formentera, where the coastline opens into long sweeps of white sand and luminous turquoise water. Continue north toward Espalmador, the small protected island just beyond the Es Trucadors peninsula, with the yacht gliding through a seascape of pale shallows and open blue.
Spend the morning swimming from the yacht and paddleboarding across the calm water around Espalmador, with the warmth of the sun overhead and the scent of salt carried on the breeze. Later, head ashore to Beso Beach for a Mediterranean lunch, where the relaxed setting, soft music, and easygoing rhythm of the island invite you to linger a little longer.
By late afternoon, return to the yacht and settle at anchor with Ibiza visible across the water. Take one last swim, stretch out on deck, or enjoy a drink as the light softens and the sea takes on warmer tones. As evening falls, Formentera settles into its quieter rhythm: unhurried time on the water, a long lunch ashore, and the freedom to let the day drift naturally toward sunset.
Best Things to Do:
Discover White Sand Beaches, Swim in Turquoise Water, Paddleboarding, Beachside Dining, Evening Celebrations at Anchor

Day 7: Formentera to Ibiza
Give your final full morning to Formentera’s beaches, moving between stretches of sand and the island’s clear Mediterranean water before heading ashore for lunch at Juan y Andrea, renowned in the supplier itinerary for its seafood and paella. If you're looking for St Tropez's Club 55 in Ibiza, Juan y Andrea’s is your answer. The seafood is impeccable, with fantastic lobster and traditional paella dishes on offer, not to mention the best Spanish sangria and refreshing homemade cocktails. The view at Juan y Andrea’s matches the culinary delights as green countryside, white sandy beaches and brilliantly blue seas surround it.
Return to the yacht for a final afternoon of swimming and watersports, making the most of the sea before cruising back toward Ibiza.
For your last evening, choose between dinner prepared onboard or heading ashore into Ibiza Old Town. Dalt Vila brings a completely different texture to the charter, with narrow stone-paved streets, historic fortifications, small squares, shops, bars, and restaurants enclosed within the old walled city.
Best Things to Do:
Beach Hopping, Taste Seafood and Paella, Long Lunches, Watersports, Visit Ibiza Old Town

Day 8: Disembark in Ibiza
Wake for one final morning onboard before arriving at Marina Ibiza and saying goodbye to your yacht and crew. We’re sure that by this point, you’ve had the best holiday possible, but unfortunately, it’s time to leave your wonderful yacht and crew.
Over the course of the week, the scenery has shifted continually: from Es Trenc’s white sand and shallow water to the rocky coves of western Mallorca, the mountain-backed coastline around Sóller and Sa Calobra, Ibiza’s sunset anchorages, and finally the turquoise waters of Formentera.
Disembark for onward travel with the Balearics experience as they make the most sense from a yacht, moving easily between beaches, coastal towns, long lunches, quiet anchorages, and open water. Contact your Boatbookings expert to do it all over again on your next luxury yacht charter holiday!

Special Mention: Cabrera National Park
Just south of Mallorca, Cabrera National Park offers a striking change of pace, with a protected archipelago of rocky coves, clear water, and largely untouched Mediterranean landscapes. Arriving by motor yacht brings you directly into this quieter setting, where the surrounding sea supports rich marine life and the shoreline is shaped by pine, juniper, and low Mediterranean vegetation. Spend the day swimming and snorkeling, exploring ashore, or simply enjoying the stillness of the anchorage from the deck. For guests staying overnight, the atmosphere becomes even more special once the day visitors leave, with dinner on deck followed by a peaceful night at mooring beneath the darkening cliffs and open sky.
