Not every marina in the Balearics can take a superyacht, and not every one that can is worth using. This is a working comparison of the berths we actually rely on across Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza & Formentera — chosen for depth, discretion and proximity to where guests actually want to be.
Mallorca
- Port Adriano — the design-led marina on the southwest coast, closest to Caló des Moro and the south-coast anchorages. The preferred base for guests who want fast access to quiet coves without a long tender ride.
- Puerto Portals — Palma's original superyacht address, minutes from Palma airport and the old town. Best for short turnarounds and guests arriving by private jet.
- Club Náutico de Palma — central, historic, and walkable to Palma's restaurant scene. A strong choice for guests who want a night or two in the city before heading north.
- Port de Sóller — the gateway to the Tramuntana coastline. Less about the marina itself, more about what it puts you next to: Sa Foradada, Deià, and the north-coast anchorages.
Ibiza & Formentera
- Marina Ibiza — the highest-profile berth on the island, walking distance to Ibiza town and the fastest crossing point to Formentera (under 45 minutes by yacht).
- Marina Botafoch — quieter than Marina Ibiza but just across the water, with easier access for larger vessels and a shorter tender run to Talamanca.
- Marina de Formentera / Puerto de La Sabina — the only serious berthing option on Formentera itself. Useful for a genuine overnight on the island rather than a day trip from Ibiza.
- Cala Saona and Ses Illetes anchorages — not marinas in the technical sense, but the two fondeos worth building an itinerary around once you're berthed at Marina Ibiza or La Sabina.
Menorca
- Club Marítimo de Mahón — deep, sheltered, and the practical base for the island's east side and the Cavalleria–Sa Nitja stretch north.
- Port de Ciutadella — small and historic; larger yachts typically anchor in nearby coves and tender in rather than berth directly in the old port.
- Port d'Addaia — a quieter alternative on the north coast, useful for guests prioritising the biosphere coves over nightlife.
Choosing between them
The honest answer is that marina choice should follow the itinerary, not the other way around. A guest set on Tramuntana sunsets belongs in Port de Sóller or Port Adriano, not Palma. A guest connecting from a private jet with a tight schedule is better served by Puerto Portals or Marina Ibiza than anywhere requiring a longer transfer. If you're planning a multi-day route across more than one island, berth availability at each stop is worth confirming before dates are fixed — high season books out marina space as fast as it books yachts.
For advisors and concierge teams building an itinerary sight unseen, our concierge team handles berth reservations directly with harbour masters across all three islands, so availability is confirmed before a proposal goes to your client.
