Overview

Four hours on a catamaran off the Palma coast, capped at 12 travellers, with homemade Spanish tapas and a swimming stop where the toys come out. Sail4fun runs the trip from D-Marin Palma Cuarentena on the Paseo Marítimo, and the skipper meets guests at the marina entrance shortly before departure.

The heart of the trip is the water time. Once anchored, guests can use snorkel gear, stand-up paddle boards, floating devices and, according to several reviewers, an underwater scooter and a big floating mat. Reviewers again and again single out the tapas, calling them great, excellent and amazing. Drinks are the main thing paid for separately. There is no open bar included; instead a bartender sells cocktails, mocktails and other drinks on board, and bringing your own drinks is not allowed except water. One reviewer called the piña colada the best they had ever had, while another found drinks a little pricey. The tour suits swimmers and relaxed floaters more than serious snorkelers, as one guest noted the stop is not a spot with many fish.

Pushchairs are fine, infant seats are available, and service animals are allowed. The boat is not wheelchair accessible, and the listing describes the marina as a short walk from the cruise terminal and near public transport.
