DESTINATIONS BY RIB

The coves where a RIB makes the difference

From Puerto Portals or Palma you reach small coves in minutes, where a RIB can anchor close to the shore. These are our favourites.

PORTALS VELLS

Calvià · 15 min

Pine trees down to the shore and calm water. The perfect first stop leaving Puerto Portals by RIB.

EL TORO

Calvià · 20 min

A marine reserve with very clear water. The RIB drops you right by the rocks for snorkelling.

SA DRAGONERA

Andratx · 40 min

A nature reserve island off Sant Elm. By RIB you follow its cliffs and stop in coves of crystal-clear water.

PORT D'ANDRATX

Andratx · 35 min

One of the prettiest harbours on the island, surrounded by mountains. The perfect lunch stop before heading on to Sa Dragonera.

CALÓ DES MORO

Santanyí · departure from the south

Mallorca’s most photographed cove, with no steps and no queues when you arrive by sea.

WHY A RIB

Agile, light and hassle-free

⚡

GOES WHERE OTHERS CAN’T

Shallow draft and compact size: you reach small coves and rocky bottoms where a yacht has to stay far out.

🗺️

FAST AND STABLE

The tubes give stability and you move quickly between coves: in one day you can cover much of the south-west coast.

🤿

GREAT VALUE

It uses less fuel than a motorboat of the same size and works out cheaper for groups of 4 to 10.

💰

TRANSPARENT PRICE

Full price before you confirm: boat, fuel, skipper, cleaning and VAT. No surprises.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know

Do I need a licence to hire a RIB in Mallorca?

It depends on the length and engine power; most RIBs require a boating licence. If you don’t have one, we add a professional skipper: you enjoy the day and they handle the navigation and the best anchorages.

What is the difference between a RIB and a motorboat?

A RIB is lighter, more stable and more agile: it gets into small coves and is usually cheaper for small groups. A motorboat offers more space, shade and comfort for larger groups.

Which port do we leave from?

Our RIBs mainly leave from Puerto Portals, in Calvià, and from Palma. Tell us where you are staying and we suggest the most convenient boat and port.

What does RIB hire include?

The boat, compulsory insurance and safety equipment. Fuel, skipper and extras are agreed separately and itemised before you confirm.

Can we anchor in any cove?

In the Balearics, posidonia seagrass is protected: you may only anchor on sand or at authorised buoys. With a RIB it is easy to find a sandy spot close to the shore, and the skipper and our team tell you where.

How far in advance should I book?

In July and August, 3 to 4 weeks ahead. In June and September 1 to 2 weeks is usually enough. Message us and we confirm availability the same day.
