Holiday destination Mallorca, belonging to Spain`s Balearic
Islands, widely is known to German holiday makers as party capital.
A typical holiday on Mallorca constists of roasting on the beach at
S`Arenal while drinking sangria out of buckets and finally
exploring the nightlife in clubs and pubs. However, the island has
to offer so much more in respect to culture, landscape and
architecture. Especially interesting will be a holiday on Mallorca
if not only the island itself but the sea is being explored.
Mallorca offers a multitude of possibilities since the island has
various marinas, which allure with attractive charter offers.
Already with a cruise of one week`s duration you may spend a lovely
time around this Balearic island.A cruise along its east coast, a
cruise around the island itself or a cruise to the other Balearic
islands, Minorca,Formentera or Ibiza, is full of attractions.
Whether scheduled for long or being planned last minute does
not play such a big part, since Mallorca is as prepared for yacht
charter tourism as for any other holiday offer.In doing so,
the Balearic Islands are ideal for sailing and are suitable for
cruising nearly during the whole year, since the region benefits
from the the anti-cyclone over the Azores.In the summer it will
become quite hot, in which case no chance to swim should be
missed.Beautiful bays, especially those located on the east coast
are inviting.If you want to charter a sailing yacht, you may wish
to familiarize yourself with the winds prevailing over the
Balearic Islands.
Around Mallorca you may encounter the mistral. Crossing over from
Mallorca to Minorca, you will partially experience the local wind,
called Tramontana. Nevertheless the Balearic Islands are a suitable
sailing area even for a beginner, so the plan to experience a yacht
charter holiday may materialize. In case of doubt, there is always
the possiobility to take an experienced skipper on board who with
good advise will provide enough safety to put to sea by yourself
next time.
