Balearic Itinerary

Day 1 & 2- Ibiza

DAY 1: IBIZA
Arrive in Ibiza to start your unforgettable charter holiday.  Ibiza is famous for it’s sunsets and by the time you have familiarised yourself with your yacht and its amenities, and enjoyed a spot of swimming and some water sports, it will be time to sample an iconic Ibizan sunset. So head over to Cotton Beach Club at Cala Tarida. Perched on the edge of a cliff and named for the 100% cottons that furnish every inch of the club, this white retreat promises complete relaxation with a fantastic cocktail menu and delicious food with two restaurants, one specializing in Mediterranean cuisine and the other, on the rooftop, offering fusion Asian fare. 
 
DAY 2: IBIZA
This party island has a lot more to offer than just clubs. Yes, you can dance all night, and all day as well if you wish, however the white island offers so much more than its party island reputation. With a delicate blend of natural and historical riches, perfectly complimented by golden beaches and the warm waters of the Mediterranean, there is truly something unique about this island that makes it so special.
 
For a spot of sightseeing, Dalt Vila, literally ’high town’, is a superbly preserved medieval town perched high above Ibiza Town and laced with tight alleyways, pretty squares and atmospheric bars and cafes. And for a perfect example of the Balearics’ sugar cube architecture take a ride up to Puig de Missa near Santa Eulalia. The views alone are worth the trip.
 
Looking for somewhere to spend a day with the beautiful people? Want a VIP box above the crowds for a spot of people watching? Ushuaia Beach Club offers one of the coolest places in the Balearics where you can laze in a Balinese cabana, enjoy the sun, go for a splash in the sea and get lost in dreamy house music floating across the airwaves until the magical early hours.
 
Shopping around the streets of Ibiza town offers a collection of unique boutiques and holiday fare.  A little further afield in St Gertrudis you will find Schulz, a shopping mecca of clothes, strange artefacts, furnishings, a gourmet food deli and beach gear; this really is the definition of a one stop shop and all with beautiful style.
 
If you would rather sit back and relax onboard, then head to Es Vedra and drop anchor for a sunset cocktail. Be captivated by this mystical, uninhabited rocky island, an Ibizan landmark seeped in mythology. The island is said to be home to sirens and sea-nymphs who tried to lure the legendary Greek King Odysseus, also known as Odysseus the Cunning, so he was far too astute to be tempted by their beautiful singing! 

Day 3 - Formentera

DAY 3: FORMENTERA
Only a short cruise away from Ibiza, your Captain can transport you to a piece of tranquil paradise in the Balearics, the island of Formentera. Take breakfast on the aft deck with family and friends enjoying the morning sunshine then take a swim in the turquoise waters, before heading to the white sandy beaches of this pretty island. This is the ideal spot for windsurfing enthusiasts as Formentera was a previous host of the World Windsurfing Championships. This is
the perfect setting for a chilled out day, sampling the chef’s delicious food on board or taking a luxury picnic ashore, all set up by the crew.

Day 4 & 5 - Palma

Depart first thing in the morning for Palma de Mallorca and arrive mid to late afternoon. The coastline has many protective coves and moorings so this makes for an ideal yacht chartering location. 
 
For a spot of culture, visit the Joan Miro collection. Located in his old workshop, this gallery and museum gives real insight into how the artist lived and worked. When you head into the Old Town you can’t miss the amazing gothic Cathedral, work on which began in 1229 at the behest of Jaume I on the foundation of an Arab mosque and took almost 400 years to complete.
 
Palma offers good shopping opportunities. Not far from the cathedral you can head up the Paseo del Borne, a tree-lined avenue of small boutiques peppered with the likes of Louis Vuitton, Rolex and Hugo Boss.  Just off the Borne is Jaime III, a relatively new and charmingly elegant street of small jewellers, shoe and clothes shops as well as the Corte Ingles department store. To the east of the Paseo del Borne is a patchwork of pedestrian shopping streets featuring more individual quaint outlets of all descriptions.
 
Located on a private peninsula with panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, Purobeach Palma is the ultimate relaxed summer hangout. Boasting a range of teak and pure white private lounge beds set against a background of vibrant blue skies, guests can sit back and enjoy the stunning pool, spa treatments and delicious food and cocktails offered while resident DJs play from sunrise to sunset. 
 
For real foodies, try the San Juan Gastronomic Market located in a 1900s slaughter house, converted to hold food stalls both local and from around the world, cafes, sunny terraces and areas for wine tastings and cookery courses. And for those searching for a more gastronomic experience, the island boasts seven Michelin-starred restaurants for you to choose from.

Day 6 - Cabrera

DAY 6: CABRERA
Depart during breakfast to arrive in time for lunch at the little known island of Cabrera. This archipelago is part of a marine national park, uninhabited and relatively untouched.  Due to the seclusion of this island the wildlife has thrived and the prolific birdlife has earned the archipelago’s status as a Special Protected Area for birds, as well as a fantastic marine ecosystem and ocean bed. 
This is a great day of tranquillity, a chance to relax onboard and make use of the yacht’s facilities, whether it be for a spot of sunbathing with a good book, some water sports fun, or a massage on the deck of your yacht whilst looking out to see.
