La Lonja Marina Charter

Marina/Port Location and Cruising Area

We have advised many guests who start their week from La Lonja Marina Charter in Palma de Mallorca, on Mallorca (Balearic Islands), and we can say with confidence that this is a very practical base for day trips and short cruises. Palma is the kind of port city where you feel the maritime rhythm immediately—right by the water, with an active promenade and easy access to the historic center. Based on our knowledge, La Lonja Marina Charter is located in Palma de Mallorca, which means you’re already in one of the best-connected sailing areas in the Balearics.

Actually, the biggest advantage we’ve noticed for people booking with us so far is logistics. Palma de Mallorca is served by Palma Airport (often referred to as Son Sant Joan). From the airport to the harbor area, transfers are usually straightforward, and our guests generally find they can be on board quickly after arrival. Palma also has frequent connections to the rest of the Balearic Islands by ferry, so if you want to combine sailing with a land visit, the options are there.

We recommend planning your first outing around the inner coastline of Palma Bay. You can typically sail out toward the open water while keeping Palma’s landmarks in view—then choose a calm anchorage for the swim. From Palma, a one-week itinerary often includes stops along the south and southwest coasts of Mallorca, where coves and beaches are plentiful. If you prefer a more “nature” feeling, we suggest exploring the coastline near the Serra de Tramuntana area from the sea side when conditions allow; it’s dramatic, and from the water the scenery is even better—wow, really.

For a longer day, many of our visitors aim for the islands and islets that sit within reach of Mallorca’s western and southern routes. We have seen guests spend time around Cabrera—when weather and local guidance make it suitable—because it’s one of the Balearic’s most protected and scenic landscapes. Even without going that far, you can still enjoy coastal towns, beaches, and the classic Mediterranean sail-by experience.

From our experience, the key is to match your route to wind and daylight. Palma offers a comfortable start and an easy return. Safe sailing!
