Among all the boat trips in Mallorca, the journey to Cala Castell and the Hole of Mallorca stands out as a truly special adventure. This route takes you along one of the island’s most unspoiled coastlines, discovering hidden coves and unique rock formations such as the famous Hole of Mallorca. With our private half-day tour, you will enjoy an exclusive experience: a boat just for you and your companions, sailing far from the tourist routes and into landscapes that feel like another era.
Cala San Vicente is a small village located halfway between Pollença and Port de Pollença, at the northern edge of the Tramuntana mountains. Its bay, nestled between towering cliffs, has turquoise waters that turn the surroundings into a true paradise on earth. Despite its beauty, it is not overcrowded with tourists, making it a place where locals and visitors peacefully share the environment.
The surroundings of this cove offer countless breathtaking spots that can only be revealed by boat. Departing from Cala San Vicente, we’ll explore a stretch of coast that is very difficult to access by land. Places like the Hole of Mallorca, Cala Estremer and Cala Castell are coastal treasures that remain untouched thanks to the rugged terrain. Sailing along this remote coastline feels like stepping back in time; its isolation has preserved a unique flora and fauna, virtually unchanged for centuries.
The route passes beneath the ancient Castell del Rei, whose remains sit atop the cliffs, and allows us to visit the extraordinary hidden cove below the castle, known as the Cambra de la Senyora. In this breathtaking setting, every stretch of coast tells a story from the past, making you feel as though you’ve entered another time.
We will also make several stops to swim, snorkel, or simply relax and sunbathe on board. If you want to discover a different side of Mallorca, far from the crowds and the hectic summer pace, this excursion is perfect for you.
Explore a hidden turquoise paradise in northern Mallorca by boat
The boat trip departs from Cala San Vicente, in the municipality of Pollença, and follows a coastline that is virtually inaccessible by land. This northern area of the Tramuntana mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, remains untouched: its isolation has preserved an ecosystem and wild landscapes found in few other parts of the island. Throughout the journey, you’ll see towering cliffs, turquoise waters, and remote coves that seem frozen in time. Cala Castell, for example, located at the end of a ravine beneath the Castell del Rei, has a small, untouched pebble beach where you’re unlikely to encounter anyone else. As we continue, we’ll pass the entrance to the bay of Pollença, enjoying privileged views of the northern coast of Mallorca in all its splendor.
A boat trip to Cala Castell with a local expert captain
With our private excursion, you’ll not only enjoy the freedom of having the boat to yourselves, but also the personal attention and knowledge of a local expert captain. He will be your guide throughout the tour, showing you the most impressive spots along the coast and sharing stories, curiosities, and hidden secrets of northern Mallorca. From virgin coves only accessible by sea to surprising formations like the Hole of Mallorca, every stop will be carefully chosen to show you the best of this exclusive route.
Whether you prefer a relaxing trip, a day filled with snorkeling and swimming, or a chance to take unique photographs, our captain will adapt the route to your interests, ensuring a safe, enjoyable and 100% personalized experience.
Hole of Mallorca: a unique rock formation
During the tour, you’ll get the chance to approach the enigmatic Hole of Mallorca, considered by many to be one of the island’s unique rock formations. It is a large natural hole sculpted by the sea into the cliffs, creating a kind of window in the rock where sunlight filters through. This hidden spot, only accessible by boat, lets you witness a true marvel of Mallorcan nature, far from the usual tourist paths. Admiring this geological wonder from our boat will be one of the highlights of the trip—perfect for stunning photos and for experiencing the raw beauty of nature.
Snorkeling in crystal-clear waters and hidden coves
The northern coast of Mallorca offers a spectacular marine environment to explore. Since the area is so rarely visited, its crystal-clear waters shelter well-preserved ecosystems, with meadows of posidonia and colorful fish that find refuge among the rocks. During the excursion, you’ll be able to snorkel in secluded coves where, even in the height of summer, you are likely to be alone in the water. Swim among fish, and with a bit of luck, you may even spot a starfish or a playful dolphin in the distance.
All necessary equipment (mask, snorkel, and fins) will be available on board, so you’ll only need to relax and enjoy this underwater adventure. Diving into these pristine waters is a unique experience you’ll never forget.
