A circular sailing holiday departing from Barcelona for the northeast coast of Mallorca, exploring Pollença, Cala Mesquida, the coves of the east coast and Alcudia Bay before returning to port.
The cruise departs from Port Olímpic in Barcelona in the early evening and crosses the western Mediterranean overnight toward Mallorca, arriving on the island's northern coast the following morning. The route then works its way around the northeast and eastern coastline before returning to Barcelona on the final night, making for a compact and well-paced circuit of the island's most varied sailing grounds.
Navigation alternates between longer open water passages, the two overnight crossings between Barcelona and Mallorca, and shorter daily legs along the coast, with most days combining a sail of a few hours with time at anchor or in a cove for swimming and exploring ashore.
The northeast coast of Mallorca offers some of the most sheltered and least developed anchorages on the island. Pollença Bay opens the Mallorcan days with a calm, wide anchorage backed by a historic town. Further along the coast, coves such as Cala Mesquida sit within protected natural areas where access by boat gives a quality of quiet that shore-based visitors rarely find.
The east and southeastern coast adds more variety, with the string of coves between Cala Bona and Cala Morlanda giving way to the more dramatic landscapes around Cala Falco and the sea caves of the Coves des Coloms, accessible only from the water.
Days follow a natural rhythm of early mornings at anchor, a short sail to the next destination, swimming and time ashore in the afternoon, and calm evenings either moored in a small port or anchored off a quiet beach.
Itinerary
Day1
Boarding in Barcelona and Overnight Crossing to Mallorca
Boarding takes place at Port Olímpic, Barcelona from 6pm. After settling into the cabins, the boat sets sail as the sun goes down, beginning the overnight Mediterranean crossing toward Mallorca. The first evening on board is spent navigating under the open sky, with arrival on the island planned for the following morning.
Day2
Pollença
After the overnight crossing, the boat arrives at Pollença on the northern coast of Mallorca, with the option of anchoring in the calm, wide bay or mooring at the marina. The day is free to explore the town's quiet streets, local cafés and nearby beaches at a relaxed pace.
Day3
Cala Mesquida
A short sail along the northeast coast leads to Cala Mesquida, a sheltered cove set within a protected natural area, surrounded by sand dunes and clear water. The day is spent swimming and relaxing at anchor. If conditions make anchoring impractical, the nearby Cala Rajada marina provides a comfortable alternative for the evening.
Day4
East Coast Coves and Cala Mitjana
The route continues south along the eastern coastline, passing the small bays of Cala Bona, S'Illot and Cala Morlanda, each offering a short stop and a different angle on the island's sheltered eastern shore. The day ends at Cala Mitjana, a quiet natural harbor surrounded by wooded hills, well suited to a calm evening at anchor.
Day5
Cala Falco and the Coves des Coloms
After anchoring briefly at Cala Falco, the day's highlight is a stop at the Coves des Coloms, a group of sea caves accessible only by boat, with the cave interiors and surrounding rock formations worth time spent exploring by dinghy. After a further stop at a nearby cove, the boat returns to the Cala Rajada area for the evening.
Day6
Alcudia Bay and Departure
The return journey begins early, heading north to Alcudia Bay for a final morning swim stop and breakfast on board, with the wide, calm waters of the bay giving a quiet close to the Mallorcan days. At 10pm the boat sets sail on the overnight return crossing to Barcelona.
Day7
Return to Barcelona and Disembarkation
After the overnight crossing, the boat arrives back at Port Olímpic, Barcelona between 12 and 1pm. Disembarkation takes place on arrival, with the final breakfast served on board during the last hours of the crossing.

Travel organizer tips
What to pack for a sailing holiday?
Pack smart for your yacht charter: choose a soft bag instead of a hard suitcase, bring lightweight layers, reef-safe sunscreen, and non-slip shoes for onboard use. A couple of swimsuits and motion sickness remedies can also make a big difference. Each boat has limited storage, so pack light, but wisely! Need help building the perfect list? Read our full guide: What to pack in a suitcase for a yacht charter
What’s a Typical Day Like on a Yacht Charter?
Start your day with a swim in a quiet bay, sail to hidden beaches or seaside villages, and enjoy a slow lunch on deck. Afternoons mean snorkeling, sunbathing, or exploring ashore. As the sun sets, your boat anchors in a scenic cove or near a harbor, ready for a relaxed dinner and a night under the stars. Curious about the full experience? Discover more in our guide: What’s a typical day like on a sailing holiday?
Who Handles Cooking and Cleaning on a Yacht Charter?
On skipper-only charters, guests usually share cooking and cleaning duties, think salads, pasta, and good teamwork. If there's a hostess, light meals and tidying are included, but it's still a casual, collaborative vibe. On fully crewed yachts, you’ll enjoy full service with a chef and crew managing everything. Want to know what’s included in your setup? Read the full guide: Who takes care of cooking and cleaning on a sailing charter?
What Happens in Case of Bad Weather During a Sailing Holiday?
Summer sailing holidays rarely face major weather issues, but when the sea gets rough, skippers adjust the route for your safety. Expect protected bays, marina stops, or a change in plan. These moments often lead to unexpected gems: local towns to explore, time to relax on board, or cozy dinners ashore. Curious about how crews handle these changes?
