Day Charter – All Inclusive

The best part of this Mallorca outing is that you get a private sailboat and a full kit of water toys for four hours. You can move from quiet sailing to snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking, or playing with the underwater scooter without sharing the boat with strangers.

I like the relaxed all-in price, which covers the skipper, fuel, cleaning, equipment, snacks, and two drinks. I also like the personal touch from captains such as Marty, Martin, and Danny, who are described as friendly, helpful, and comfortable speaking English. The main drawback is the short duration: four hours passes quickly when you want time to sail and try every activity.

Key things to know before booking

• Private boat for up to 11 people: Your group has the boat to itself, making the cost easier to justify for families and friends.
• Four stops around Palma: The route includes Punta Negra, Platja del Mago, Cala Major, and Ses Illetes, with time for swimming and water games.
• More than a sailing trip: You get a paddleboard, snorkeling equipment, underwater scooter, crystal-clear kayak, and anti-jellyfish pool.
• Skipper included: A professional captain handles the boat while you focus on the water and the views.
• Food and drinks are covered: Expect an appetizer or snacks plus two drinks, including soft drinks and options such as beer or wine.
• Weather matters: Poor conditions can lead to a new date or a full refund, while cancellations made at least 24 hours ahead are refundable.

A private half-day on Mallorca’s water

This charter is designed for people who want a boat day without the work of renting and managing a boat themselves. You meet at Naviera Balear S.L. on Avenida de Gabriel Roca in Palma, then return to the same meeting point after roughly four hours.

The private format is important. With a maximum of 11 passengers, you can bring a family group, a birthday party, or several couples and keep the day together. You also avoid the usual limits of a large shared excursion, where everyone must follow one fixed swimming schedule.

The skipper runs the practical side of the outing. You do not need to handle fuel, navigation, or final cleaning. That leaves you free to use the equipment, sit back under sail, or simply enjoy the coves from the boat.

The captains named in the feedback include Marty, Martin, and Danny. Marty is described as especially friendly and accommodating, while Martin is praised for explaining the area and making the trip comfortable. Danny handled a 60th birthday outing and helped with dietary needs, a useful point if your group is planning a celebration.

What the $1,027.36 price really covers

The listed price is $1,027.36 per group, not per person, for up to 11 people. At the full capacity, that works out to about $93 per person. A smaller group pays more per head, but the private setting may still make sense if you value control over the day.

The price includes the skipper, fuel, final cleaning, all fees and taxes, snorkeling equipment, an underwater scooter, a stand-up paddleboard, a crystal-clear kayak, and an anti-jellyfish pool. Snacks, an appetizer, and two drinks are also included. Soft drinks are listed, and the food and drink service has included local produce, beer, and wine.

This is not a full-day yacht rental. It is a four-hour charter with a strong recreation focus. You are paying for a private boat, a captain, transport around several coastal stops, and a broad selection of equipment rather than for a long meal or a luxury onboard service.

For 10 or 11 people, the value is clear. For two or three people, the cost is harder to defend unless privacy is your main reason for booking. I would compare the total price with other private boat options in Palma, but remember to check what those alternatives include. Fuel, equipment, and a skipper can quickly add to a lower advertised rate.

Leaving Palma for Punta Negra

The first listed stop is Playa Punta Negra. This gives the outing an early chance to shift from sailing into water time.

You can expect the skipper to choose how long to remain in each area based on the conditions and the group’s interests. The charter is built around activity, so this is a good place to begin with snorkeling, the paddleboard, or the underwater scooter.

The included snorkeling equipment means you do not need to pack your own mask and gear. You should still bring your own towel, sunscreen, and any personal accessories, since those are not provided.

The underwater scooter is one of the more unusual inclusions. It gives you a playful way to move through the water, though it will appeal most to people who want active time rather than quiet swimming. If your group includes mixed ages and energy levels, the boat lets some people play in the water while others remain onboard.

Platja del Mago and the water-toy lineup

Platja del Mago is the second listed stop. The name may sound dramatic, but the useful detail for you is the chance to continue using the water equipment in a new setting.

The stand-up paddleboard is a good choice if you want a steady, active ride close to the boat. The crystal-clear kayak adds a different view, letting you look down through the hull while paddling. This combination works well for a group because people can rotate between equipment instead of waiting for one shared activity.

The anti-jellyfish pool is another practical feature. It gives you an enclosed place to cool off in the sea, which can suit children or anyone who prefers a little more separation from open water. The supplied information does not specify its size or exact setup, so you should think of it as an extra water-play option rather than a substitute for a full swimming area.

The boat carries several types of equipment, but four hours is not long enough for everyone to spend equal time on everything in a large group. If you are traveling with 11 people, agree early on how you want to share the paddleboard, kayak, and scooter.

The Palma Wellness SPA and Gran Playa de Palma stop

The itinerary also lists Mallorca Wellness SPA Gran Playa De Palma. This stop is less clearly explained than the named coves, so you should not book expecting a spa treatment. The available information identifies it as a stop, but it does not say that admission, treatments, or a wellness session is included.

Treat this part of the route as a location reference rather than a promised land-based visit. The charter itself is centered on sailing and water activities, and the included services do not list spa access.

That uncertainty is worth clarifying with Feels Ocean before you reserve if the stop is important to your plans. The provider gives an email address, [email protected], for accessibility questions, and it is also a sensible contact for itinerary details.

Cala Major for another swim

Cala Major is the fourth listed stop. Its place on the route gives the skipper another coastal setting for swimming, snorkeling, or using the water toys.

The strength of a multi-stop charter is variety. You are not tied to one swimming spot for the whole morning or afternoon. If one cove feels crowded, windy, or less suited to your group, the skipper has other points on the route.

The tradeoff is time spent moving between locations. A four-hour charter cannot offer long stays at all five listed stops. You should expect a flexible coastal circuit rather than five long beach visits.

This is where a private skipper helps. Captains Marty and Martin are described as friendly and informative, and that kind of local guidance matters when deciding how much time to spend sailing, swimming, or playing in the water. You can tell the captain what your group cares about most.

Ses Illetes and the final stretch

Ses Illetes is the fifth listed stop. It is the final named point in the route and another chance to use the boat as a floating base.

You may prefer to finish with a calm swim, a final paddleboard session, or time on deck with your drink. The charter includes two drinks per person, along with snacks or an appetizer. This is enough for a light break, but you should not treat the package as a full lunch unless Feels Ocean confirms otherwise.

The food has been described as pleasant, with local produce included on at least some outings. Dietary needs have also been accommodated for a birthday group, but you should raise your requirements when booking rather than assume every request can be handled on the day.

After Ses Illetes, the boat returns to the original meeting point in Palma. Since private transportation is not included, you need to make your own way to Avenida de Gabriel Roca. The meeting point is near public transportation, which makes the start practical if you are staying in Palma, but the charter does not include hotel pickup.

Why the captain matters

A private boat is only as good as the person running it. Here, the captain is not just a driver. The skipper handles the route, safety, equipment, timing, and the practical details of the outing.

Captain Marty receives especially warm praise for speaking perfect English, staying accommodating, and giving a family group plenty of time for sailing and water sports. Martin is described as friendly and informative. Danny helped make a milestone birthday feel personal and worked with dietary needs.

You should still tell the captain at the start what your group wants. Some groups will want maximum time in the water. Others may prefer a slower sail with snacks and conversation. Four hours rewards a little planning.

What to bring and what not to expect

Pack a towel, sunscreen, and personal accessories. Those items are specifically excluded, and you will want them after swimming.

You do not need to bring snorkeling gear, a paddleboard, an underwater scooter, or a kayak. Those are supplied. Fuel, taxes, the skipper, and final cleaning are also included, so you should not face the usual add-on costs associated with a boat rental.

This is not a private transportation service. You must reach the Palma meeting point yourself, and the activity ends there. It is also not presented as a luxury meal cruise. The focus is movement, swimming, and water games, with light food and drinks along the way.

The boat can accommodate most participants, and service animals are allowed. If you have a specific accessibility concern, contact Feels Ocean before booking. The provider invites questions by email, but the supplied information does not give detailed boat-access specifications.

Who will enjoy this charter most

I would recommend this outing to a group that wants privacy and activity in equal measure. Families with older children, groups of friends, and birthday parties are a natural fit.

The private setup also works for a family with different comfort levels. A three-year-old was included on one outing, while adults used the water equipment and enjoyed the sailing. You should still ask the provider about your own child’s needs and comfort on the boat.

This is less suitable if you want a long, quiet sailing trip with no scheduled stops. The boat carries active equipment for a reason. You will get more from the price if your group plans to snorkel, paddle, kayak, and try the underwater scooter.

It may also be a poor match for a very small group on a tight budget. The price is fixed per group, so two people pay the same total as 11. For a larger party, the cost becomes much more reasonable.

Timing, weather, and cancellation

The charter lasts about four hours. It is offered in English and confirmation normally arrives at booking, unless you reserve within one day of departure. Last-minute confirmation remains subject to availability.

Good weather is required. If poor conditions cause a cancellation, you can choose another date or receive a full refund. You can also cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations or changes made less than 24 hours ahead are not accepted for a refund.

That policy makes it smart to avoid scheduling this as your only possible water day if your Mallorca plans are tight. Give yourself room to move the outing if the weather turns.

Should you book this Mallorca charter?

Book it if you have a group large enough to share the cost and want a private, active half-day on the sea. The strongest reasons are the captain, the freedom from shared-tour schedules, and the unusually good list of included water equipment.

I would be more cautious for a couple or a small family unless privacy is worth the fixed price. I would also confirm the role of the Mallorca Wellness SPA stop and clarify any dietary or accessibility needs before paying.

For a birthday, family reunion, or group of friends, this is an easy choice. You get a skipper, several swimming locations, snacks, drinks, and plenty to do without organizing each part yourself. Just bring sunscreen and a towel, set realistic expectations about the four-hour schedule, and agree with your group on which water toys matter most.
