If there is a word that defines the Balearic Islands, it is versatility . The beautiful Balearic archipelago has it all: from white sand beaches, coves with crystal clear waters, through impressive mountains, varied nature... even the best nightlife or if you prefer, an environment where you can find peace and quiet.

It is true that there are many options to visit these islands. Then you will ask yourself, why choose a sailing holiday in the Balearic Islands ?

• It is a really special way of traveling . Sailing from the peninsula to seeing the islands on the horizon in just a few hours is a unique sensation. Knowing the Balearic Islands from another perspective, out of the ordinary, be it the typical apartment or the rental car, will make you live an experience different from the rest. The composition and proximity of these islands makes the boat the ideal means of transport to discover every corner of its beautiful coastline.

• You avoid crowds of tourists. Who does not like to escape to the Mediterranean on vacation? That is why, every summer, we all flock to the islands, even crowding the capacity of their beaches and coves. However, with the boat you will not have this problem during your vacation, since you will enjoy the spaciousness and discretion offered by staying at sea.

• Optimize your vacation time. The freedom that the boat allows you to skirt the Balearic coast more efficiently is unbeatable. Not only that, discovering the island by boat offers the possibility of visiting the most remote and exclusive corners, which are little or not at all accessible by land, and which would otherwise be impossible to find.

• You take advantage of the skipper's experience. What better than a local person from the area to let you advise? They will surely be delighted to be able to reveal their favorite and lesser known corners. You will have the most useful recommendations to get to know the Balearic Islands in depth that you will not find in any tourist guide. A privilege only within your reach!

The Balearic Islands , especially Ibiza , are known for their high prices due to their great popularity and the existence of businesses focused on luxury services. For this reason, it becomes almost mission impossible to find affordable accommodation available in summer.

However, the trend of staying on a boat in Ibiza has been favored in recent years compared to other vacation rentals such as Airbnb . More and more tourists are appreciating the advantages offered, for the same price or even less, by staying on a boat in the Balearic Islands.

For this reason, at Sailwiz we want to make it easy for you. The price of a boat holiday will depend on the type of activity, expenses included, type of boat... but among other things, the Balearic Islands are mainly influenced by the season in which you go to visit them. On our platform you can find from routes and excursions lasting a few hours between €50-60 per person, to trips and rentals that last a week with an average cost between €90-200 per person per day. The price for the boat rental in the Balearic Islands will also depend on other obligatory extra expenses such as the services of the skipper, diesel, moorings or if you want to include other types of optional details, such as the hiring of cooks on board, hostesses, water activities or the inclusion of transportation services for transfers.

Don't you know which of the Balearic Islands to decide on to have the best holidays? We tell you the most remote and special corners to visit by boat:

• Mallorca: Being the largest island, you can find it all. It is the perfect place for a family sailing holiday with which to enjoy all its wonderful little fishing villages and its crystal clear beaches to cheer you up with outdoor activities. Do not forget to visit the famous Caló des Moro, perfect for going by boat as its access is quite limited, or Cala Pi, a beautiful beach surrounded by pine trees and nature to the north of the island.

• Ibiza : the paradise of the Mediterranean. This island seduces us with around 180 beaches and coves, some of them only accessible by boat, such as Cala Jonc or Isla de Conillera, which are highly recommended to visit with friends. Do not forget the beautiful Cala d'Hort, located in front of the instagrammable islet of Es Verdrà, where you can enjoy the privilege of watching its famous sunsets up close.

• Menorca: another of the jewels of the Balearic archipelago. This island looks like something out of a movie as its landscape and turquoise waters convey peace and calm, ideal for disconnecting from the world. It is essential to rent a boat if you want to visit the unique Cala en Turqueta and Cala Regonda.

• Formentera: perhaps the least known but incredibly surprising. Doing the Ibiza-Formentera route by boat is an excursion where you can admire the beauty of the Mediterranean in all its splendor. Write down this recommendation: S'Alga beach. Do not leave without marveling at this hidden place on the small island of Espalmador where you can enjoy the tranquility of being practically alone.

Whichever destination is chosen, it will be perfect. So do not expect more! Check at Sailwiz all the options available to enjoy the best boat holidays in the Balearic Islands of your life.
