Turquoise coves, smooth sailing across the Mediterranean, views of the coastline from a different perspective and the feeling of completely disconnecting.

Accessories that will enhance your experience
Beyond the essentials, there are a few accessories that aren’t mandatory but greatly improve comfort and enjoyment on board. If your goal is to relax without worrying about anything, these details make a noticeable difference from the very first minute. And if you’re still deciding which type of excursion suits you best, you can compare options here: Boat tours in the Bay of Alcudia.
1Comfortable, non-slip footwear
Footwear is one of the most common questions. Our recommendation is clear: avoid loose flip-flops and choose water shoes or non-slip sandals.
This allows you to move safely around the boat, get on and off comfortably and avoid slipping, especially when the deck is wet.
On excursions such as the morning boat tour in Alcudia, where there is more time for swimming and moving around the boat, proper footwear makes a real difference.

It helps protect:
Even on calm days, splashes are common. Many of the issues we see on board could be avoided simply by using a waterproof bag.
