Who each boat trip from Alcudia suits
Wildlife fans and older children
Wildlife fans around Alcudia should expect an early alarm, because boats go out for wild pods while the water is calm. One boat sails at sunrise, adds a short swim at Coll Baix and offers hotel pickup as an option. It advertises a guaranteed sighting, so read on its card what that promise covers.
Romantics who like the sound of the sea

Couples and small parties in Alcudia can reserve a whole boat for themselves. A traditional Mallorcan boat sails towards golden hour with tapas and local wine. Another goes to Lighthouse Island, with snorkelling gear as well as tapas and wine.
