Destination

Cabrera

A protected archipelago just ten kilometres south of Mallorca that makes this crossing truly unforgettable.

Costa de Cabrera desde el mar

A unique environment in the Mediterranean

Cabrera is part of an archipelago of 19 islets and was declared a Maritime-Terrestrial National Park in 1991. It is one of the best preserved environments in the Mediterranean, a place where nature remains intact and the sea retains an exceptional richness.

No urbanisation, no noise and no artificiality. Just open sea, rock, wind and silence.

It is not just the starting point. It is the core of the experience.

National park

A protected enclave, almost untouched, where nature and the sea are preserved in an extraordinary state.

Crystal-clear waters

Turquoise waters, exceptional visibility and the feeling of swimming in a truly privileged environment.

Biodiversity

More than 400 plant species, exceptional marine richness and one of the highest concentrations of underwater life in the Mediterranean.

A memorable finish

The crossing termina en Colònia de Sant Jordi, uno de los rincones más especiales de Mallorca y puerta natural de acceso al archipiélago.
