We did this tour 10 years ago and it didn’t disappoint us. Just been back to Majorca and this was on our to-do list. Excellent value for money, delightful views of the coastline and a great way to spend a couple of hours in the sun. For those who wanted to swim in the sea there was around 20 minutes to do that near the Malgrat Islands. Last, but not least, has to a word about the crew. They made sure everyone got safely aboard and off again at the end of the tour. A cheerful crew who even provided some entertainment by singing! Recommended!!

Brilliant couple of hours out at sea and looking along the beautiful coast line of major, lovely light music playing, and a reasonably priced bar, serving the best sangria
