First of all , it was not overbooked – not full capacity so that there is enough room to maintain distance and be comfortable while enjoying the trip and activities . The boat is very clean and the staff are all complying with restrictions – face masks and cleanliness The destination was nice for the swim and snijding , the food was above expectations – clean and tasty . Great drinks available if you wish to buy extras like non alcoholic cocktails .

Victoria – September 27, 2021

Lovely crew and beautiful boat . Literally couldn’t find a fault except maybe look at offering a full day as I enjoyed it too much and needed more time xx captain was lovely and friend, food is Ok but would be better if it had signs for what the food is x

Fenja – September 14, 2021

The cove/place to swim, where we stopped with the catamaran, was not that special, but okay. The food was good and enough for around 70 people on the boat. Age of the group was between 18 and 60 and there were groups as well as couples and single travellers. The boat had more than enough space for everybody. Boat is quite new, looks nice.

Anonymous – September 2, 2021

Very nice boat, experience to do to discover the island from another angle. Food not bad! The stopping places were good, but a little disappointing compared to the description seen beforehand and sometimes a little short. Overall very nice time spent! * the key is to have a good place 😉

Kevin – August 25, 2021

Fun amazing boat trip around the North Coast. Worth the money! The only thing I wished they did different was not stopping so long at each “stop” if you will. Because for us it was only 2 stops and then we were done, I would have liked it to be shorter but more stops rather than longer but few stops. But other than that, superb! 🙂

Marino – July 31, 2021

it started with bad weather and big waves and we were warned about it and offered to change the dates, but we still went with it – and we are glad we did! at first it was very wavy, but as soon as we docked in Formentor paradise started! We tried the kayaks, enjoyed the water, the food was great and especially the watermelon We did skip 1 beach due to the waves, but we still visited Formentor and the weather got a lot better and then later we also stopped for a quick swim before coming back. Highly recommended and the crew is great casual and relaxed summer atmosphere, it's not sm

Visitor comments

• "We had a fantastic day on the Mallorca bay tour. The crew were so helpful and friendly and made you feel welcome. The boat is in fantastic condition and is not too crowded. Plenty of room to lie out. You sail to beautiful locations where you can snorkel and enjoy the scenery. Food on board is delicious and loads of it. Would definitely recommend for a great day out." - Trip Advisor
• "This is an experience to remember. It is not about the food or the service (both luxury level) it's about the feeling when you're there, an amazing sensation, that you won't want to stop smiling:)) leaving from Palma there are two stops for swimming and activities, with snacks, BBQ and some of the best cocktails on the island. The best unspoiled views and, in places, the only way to access the coast. A very professional crew, they helped us with every question and were on hand to make sure we enjoyed the experience. A very tight ship and we will come back, definitely! Gracias captain Juan!" - Trip Advisor
• "We booked this around a week and a half ago and had a lovely time. The food and drinks were great, we got to paddleboard, and kayaked out to a little beach. The water near the first stop was amazingly clear, and easier to paddleboard in because it was in a smaller bay. It was a great value for everything included, and I highly recommended it, everyone in our group of 9 had a wonderful time." - Trip Advisor
• "If you want to experience a great and relaxing boat tour, this is what you should experience. The catamaran is smaller than the ones on the pier, which is a great bonus, as it carries only 30 people. So it's not overcrowded. The crew were very nice, great food, and fantastic locations to swim in a crystal clear water." - Trip Advisor

Boat trips in Mallorca on  a sailing yacht

S ailing trips  are very popular in Mallorca. Sail along the coast with the breeze blowing through your hair, chilling out and catch the rays. These tours are either a day or a whole day or are done at a dusk. Usually when you go on a boat trip to Majorca that lasts a bit longer, there are food and drinks served onboard. The sailboats sail out to sea under full sails and then move on to the beautiful nearby bays to drop the anchor. You have the chance to swim, snorkel, eat and soak up the sun. Sailing boat trips in Majorca are usually over 12 people, so you can enjoy a more intimate experience in the ocean. 

Boat trips in Mallorca on a catamaran

The most popular boat trips in Mallorca are  catamaran trips . A catamaran is a boat with two hulls which smoothly glides through the water, making it the best of the bunch for those who suffer with seasick. Typically, catamarans are massive and can hold between 40 and 200 people. Catamaran boat trips are usually a bit easier on the pocket than sailing trips as there are more people onboard, but they're one and the same in terms of what they offer. Both come with swim stops for snorkelling. Popular with the old and young, set off from North and South Mallorca on a catamaran and see the seaside from a new side. 

Boat trips in Mallorca  on a speedboat

Speedboats are – as the name suggests – famous for their high speed. These boats are specially built so that the bow lifts up the bow when a certain speed is hit so the boats can glide with minimum water resistance. This is what lets these boats get to such a high speed without throwing you up and down. Speedboat boat trips in Mallorca are a crowd favourite on stag dos; they are up for anything so if speed is on the menu, they're taking it!

Boat trips in Mallorca  on a glass-bottom boat

There is certainly a lot to see down there, keep your eyes peeled for the shipwrecks which are home to many a fish. Families love these tours because they get to be close to the sea life without the risk that comes with water sports.

Boat trips in Mallorca  on a hired boat

You do not need a sailing license to hire a boat in Majorca. Do not fret if you do not know an awful lot about sailing because you still have the chance to sail. Normally, small boats fit up to 4 people. You'll be filled in on everything you need to know before you head out to sea. If you'd rather take someone else, this option is there as well. On the flipside, if you have a license, why not choose a more powerful  boat to hire  in Mallorca and crank up the speed a little on your cruise. Knock this one off your bucket list and play the part of a captain in Mallorca for a day!

LOS ANGELES – It is hard to imagine a team not showing up energized and focused for a rivalry game. Especially a team that had more to play for.

But that six-game winning streak UCLA compiled before losing at the buzzer to Utah last week? That’s old news, getting smaller in the rear view mirror.

The chance of getting back to the NCAA Tournament, and giving Mick Cronin his 12th straight trip to March Madness (if you forgive 2020, when there was no tournament because of COVID-19)? It’s hanging by the skinniest of threads. USC, which played its way out of contention for an at-large bid weeks ago, likely extinguished it’s rival’s at-large hopes as well Saturday night with a 62-56 decision at Pauley Pavilion that was a lot more convincing than the final score looked.

“There’s only one way we can make the tournament,” he said. “You gotta win the conference tournament, by my math.”

But that might have been the least of his worries, following a discouraging loss and the attitudes during the week of practice that led up to it.

“It’s a simple game – the team that plays harder usually wins,” Cronin said. “They played much harder than us. They were more physical. They had humility. They came in here looking for redemption. We had no humility. Show me somebody that’s not humble, and I’ll show you somebody getting ready to get humbled.

“We had our worst week of practice of the season. I failed miserably to get my team ready for the fight that was coming today. And I’m thoroughly embarrassed. I apologize to the people wearing the four letters. Yes, we really struggled making open shots, but that has nothing to do with all the stuff I talked about. The team that wins the fight usually wins the game, and they won the fight in every way. We were awful.”

Exhibit A: Cronin noted that the top priority listed on the locker room board before the game was to put the clamps on the Trojans’ Boogie Ellis .

“Do not let him shoot,” Cronin said. “Make somebody else beat us. How’d that work?”

Ellis had 18 points at halftime, on 6-for-10 shooting and 3 for 5 from 3-point country. He finished with 24. Meanwhile, UCLA’s guards were 5 for 17 from the field in the first half, 7 for 35 for the game with 11 turnovers. And after using a 15-1 run at the end of the first half to tie the game 34-34, UCLA didn’t score a point for the first 7:15 of the second half to fall back again.

“We missed our first five shots (after halftime), so we just came out flat with no energy,” Adem Bona said.

The 15-1 run was, Cronin said, the only time during the game he felt his team played hard. Otherwise, “We let them run whatever they wanted to run. We took nothing away from them.”

The signs evidently were there in the days leading up to the game, and Cronin seemed befuddled that he had to “put guys on the treadmill, yell and scream and run my team the day before you’re playing your rival in front of your biggest crowd of the season … I should have to calm them down.”

Would this be the sort of experience that might get his players’ attention for the final four regular season games and the conference tournament? Maybe. Maybe not.

“You would assume they’re extremely humble” after a loss like that, Cronin said, adding that he didn’t expect them to take it as hard as he did.

“I’m not going to talk to anybody tonight,” he said. “I’m going to hate myself, the job I did. The only person I’m talking to tonight is my dog, okay? And that’s it. I have a recruit in town, so somehow I have to rally tomorrow.

“They’re not me. Like, they’re not you. They’re just not. They’re kids. I mean, I would hope that they were thoroughly embarrassed, and they should be. I just don’t know if it’s like that. … There’s certain guys (who will take it hard). Other guys will go out. You know, I’m liable to have four guys out eating and laughing tonight with their girlfriend. That’s just the way it is.”

Kids these days, right?

The metrics that will ultimately be used in determining at-large teams are very unfriendly to both L.A. schools. Before Saturday night UCLA was 107th in the NET rating, one of the primary tools the NCAA Tournament selection committee uses to evaluate potential at-large teams, while USC was 108th. The two figured to flip-flop after Saturday’s result, and neither is close to the territory that would qualify for the tournament’s 36 at-large berths.

UCLA is 14-13, but when you take away a Maui Classic victory over Division II Chaminade, it’s a .500 team. They’re still in fourth place in the Pac-12 at 9-7, and in position for a first-day bye in ‘Vegas, but their four remaining conference games include games at second-place Washington State (12-5) and at home against first place Arizona (12-4).

USC (11-16, 5-11) right now is in 11th place and would have to somehow win four games in four days in ‘Vegas to get back to March Madness. It could be argued that Saturday night at Pauley Pavilion was their NCAA Tournament equivalent.

The Trojans played like it mattered. The Bruins didn’t, and it showed.
