Equipment & hire
Check the scope of hire, protective clothing and requirements directly with the provider. Only use your own equipment if it suits the area and the weather.
Beginners & advanced
Beginners choose a briefing or a course. Advanced participants agree the discipline, wind window and preferred area with the provider.
Suitable regions
Platja de Muro and the northern bays are the base for wind and board sports; there are dive centres all around the island – from Port de Pollença via Port d’Andratx and Port de Sóller to the south and the east coast. Can Pastilla is the location named at Playa de Palma.
Kitesurfing, windsurfing & wing foiling
These disciplines depend especially on wind and open water. Agree the day’s conditions and a suitable level with the provider.
SUP
Stand-up paddling works best on calm water. Take wind, swell and the way back into account before you start.
Sailing & catamaran
For sailing and catamaran trips, the bays in the north are a specific region to head for. Clarify reservations and requirements directly.
Diving & snorkelling
Port de Pollença is the base named. Check visibility, swell, qualifications and the equipment needed before every trip.
