A day at sea: sailing from Port d'Andratx
Some places are best explored on foot, while others reveal their true beauty only from the water. Port d'Andratx definitely belongs to the latter. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs, secluded coves and crystal-clear waters, this charming harbour in southwest Mallorca invites visitors to experience the Mediterranean from a completely different perspective.
If you're staying at Mon Port hotel & spa, you'll be just a few minutes from the marina, making it easy to embark on one of the most memorable experiences of your holiday: a day sailing along one of Mallorca's most spectacular coastlines.
Why sail from Port d'Andratx?
Port d'Andratx is one of Mallorca's most beautiful natural harbours. Thanks to its privileged location, it's the perfect starting point for discovering peaceful coves, hidden bays and breathtaking coastal scenery.
From the sea you'll admire the Serra de Tramuntana as it meets the Mediterranean, discover sea caves, anchor in secluded bays and enjoy a refreshing swim away from the island's busiest beaches.
Above all, sailing offers something difficult to describe: the gentle sound of the waves, the sea breeze and the slow pace of life create a true feeling of relaxation.
Places worth discovering by boat
Cala Llamp
Just a few minutes from the harbour lies Cala Llamp, a rocky cove famous for its incredibly clear waters. It's an ideal place to anchor, swim or enjoy snorkelling.
Cala d'Egos
More secluded and less well known, Cala d'Egos remains wonderfully unspoilt. Accessible mainly by sea, it offers peace, tranquillity and spectacular scenery.
Sant Elm and Sa Dragonera Island
For a half-day or full-day excursion, continue towards Sant Elm and admire the Sa Dragonera Natural Park, one of the Balearic Islands' most important protected areas.
Its impressive cliffs, abundant marine life and unmistakable silhouette make it one of the highlights of the southwest coast.
Which sailing experience should you choose?
One of the advantages of Port d'Andratx is the variety of options available.
You can charter a boat with a skipper, spend the day aboard a sailing yacht, join a shared excursion or rent a small motorboat if you have the required licence.
Many companies also offer snorkelling equipment, paddle boards and even lunch on board.
Tips for your day at sea
To make the most of your trip, don't forget sunscreen, a hat, swimwear, towels, plenty of water and a waterproof case for your phone.
If you're visiting during the summer months, it's also advisable to book your sailing trip a few days in advance, especially in July and August.

After a day at sea, there's nothing better than returning to a peaceful place where you can continue relaxing.
Mon Port hotel & spa offers apartments, studios and villas just a short walk from the marina, as well as swimming pools, a spa and everything you need for an unforgettable holiday in Port d'Andratx.
