The boat trip to Dragonera Island offers the opportunity to disembark and visit one of Mallorca’s most emblematic natural parks. Located off the southwest coast, Dragonera is a protected area of great ecological importance, known for its rugged landscapes, biodiversity, and well-preserved marine environment.

This excursion is adapted to the time of year and offers two different options, both including a landing on the island and free time to explore independently, always respecting the Natural Park’s regulations.

Dragonera & Port Andratx – Low Season (April and May)

Boat Trip Suitable for Families

During April and May, the excursion combines a relaxing cruise, nature, swimming, and a visit to one of Mallorca’s most elegant ports.

The departure is from Santa Ponsa, Paguera, or Camp de Mar, sailing along the southwest coast to the Dragonera Island Natural Park. Once at the island, you will disembark and have approximately one hour of free time, as stipulated in the official license from the Regional Ministry, to explore the marked trails and enjoy the natural surroundings at your own pace.

After visiting Dragonera, the excursion continues with a stop for swimming in crystal-clear waters and, if sea conditions permit, a visit to the Cala en Tió sea cave, a very characteristic natural formation of the area.

The experience is completed with a 40-minute stop in Port Andratx, ideal for strolling around the port, having a drink, or simply soaking up the Mediterranean atmosphere.
