[miltonferrara]

For a holiday with a huge difference why not include a luxurious yacht charter sailing around the beautiful Balearic Islands?

We will look at what the 4 islands making up this ancient archipelago has to offer and then explain why a day’s luxury yacht charter, or better still an extended 3-10-night charter gives scope galore.

What’s to see and do in the Balearics:

Located in the enticing Mediterranean Sea the Balearics consist of 4 main islands:

• Mallorca (Majorca)
• Menorca (Minorca)
• Ibiza
• Formentera

The proximity of each island is distant enough to give each its own special feel, but close enough to enjoy each one during an extended luxury yacht charter.

Opting for a day charter is the choice of many. It will allow you to visit 1 of the other islands as well as dropping anchor of a secluded bay or deserted stretch of beach. Such activities are all part of the wonderful package offered.

On your visit to the different isles you will discover a rich ancient history, dramatic landscapes and countryside that is both natural and scenic.

There are hidden coves, deserted beaches, popular resorts and UNESCO-listed attractions across this enchanting chain of islands.

Which of the islands you decide to spend the majority of your time on will be dependent upon what you are looking for, but rest assured, there really is something for everyone.

Mallorca and Menorca have long catered for family and group holidays. Ibiza is world-renowned for its night-life and party atmosphere but also offers far more. While Formentera is the smallest and quietest island it offers some unbelievable beaches and a totally relaxed atmosphere for those in need.

Mallorca:

We will major on what the largest island in this beautiful archipelago has to offer, and why it is the perfect starting point for an unforgettable sea-going experience.

Mallorca is the most visited of the Balearic Islands and it is easy to see why with sights, sounds and a wide choice of differing locations to choose from.

Palma de Mallorca isthe cosmopolitan capital city of the Balearics withanhistorical old town and stunning gothic cathedral to admire and daily fresh food markets to savour. The stylish beach clubs will relax while top-class restaurants and nightlife venues mingle easily with some wonderful shopping opportunities.

A totally different experience will be found while travelling through the magnificentSerra de Tramuntana. This 90km mountain range is known as the backbone of Mallorca and stretches from southwest to the far north of the island.

Traversing this route is a worthy experience which will see you pass two lakes, soaring mountainous peaks and ancient towns and villages noted for their cultural and historical interest.

What better place to begin your yacht charter?

Whether you have decided to test the water with a fulfilling day on the sea or are extending your charter to venture throughout these beautiful islands,Mallorca is the perfect place to begin your luxury yacht charter. There is an excellent choice of marinas with first-class facilities. One that should be investigated is the:

• Port Adriano Marina:This superb piece of architecture is far more than a marina. It is a statement combining fashion, style, food, wine and top-class super-yacht marine facilities.

Designed by the world-famous architect Philippe Starck and opened in 2012 its design is understated yet hugely stylish. Towering concrete columns blend with a slatted wood roof and a striking, underlit staircase.

Carefully selected outlets sell local fashion and jewellery. Nautical stores offer everything for your time at sea and an excellent choice of eateries serving locally sourced fare offer mouthwatering dishes.

As with other top-class restaurants across the island, fish lovers will be in heaven, but wine lovers are certainly not forgotten. A point in case is the Sansibar restaurant with a wine list consisting of over 30,000 different wines!

Different strokes for different folks!

When booking a luxury yacht charter there are endless options in routes taken and places visited. The only real decision is whether you book a day charter or decide to extend your experience and charter a yacht for several days.

Day charter:

If your party wish to book a day charter to celebrate a special occasion such as a birthday, anniversary or major event this can quickly be arranged.

Choosing a captain and crew with long experience sailing these waters will allow you to pre-arrange your day. You can either give specifics of a destination with stops along the way or listen to various suggestions from the captain.

There will be the opportunity to visit sheltered coves and remote beachesen-route to lunch at a trendy Ibiza restaurant. From there you will have the opportunity to visit the UNESCO listed old town for shopping and souvenirs.

Plumping for a top of the range luxury yacht brings with it a host of advantages. There will be onboard catering available, relaxation spots above and below deck as well as en-suite, air-conditioned cabins to make use of.

The charter yacht of your choice will have a tender that will get you smoothly from your yacht to remote stretches of beach and those enticing secluded coves. It should also be fully equipped with a range of luxury water toys for the more energetic in the party to enjoy.

Extended charter:

The pressure is off! It is only natural that on a day trip you will want to do, see and try as many things as possible while also taking advantage of a large helping of relaxation!

By spending several days living on the yacht with very regular stops and land visits an extended charter slows the pace while increasing the anticipation of coming across the next enchanting spot.

While onboard you will sleep in quality cabinsand make the most of comfortable lounging spaces while relaxing to your hearts content.

Another real advantage of an extended charter is that you will be at liberty to visit all of the islands in the Balearic chain. This will allow you to appreciate the differing ambience and pace of life each has to offer.

An experience to remember:

Whichever way you look at it, a day’s yacht charter is a truly memorable experience and one to be recommended.

But, extending your stay at sea and combining it with 7-10 days on the island of your choice will be an unforgettable holiday that will stay in the memory for many years to come.
