A crewed yacht through Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera's quiet coves.

Spain rewards the discerning with sun-washed coastlines, kitchens that reinvented gastronomy and an unhurried elegance found nowhere else.

Balearic Yacht Journey — Spain

When to go

May through September, when long golden evenings, warm seas and the Balearics at their finest reward those who travel in the light. Your advisor times it to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.

The experiences

A sense of what this journey can hold — each one arranged privately and shaped to you:

  • A fully crewed yacht held for your journey alone, charting Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera at your own pace.
  • Mornings dropping anchor in coves reachable only from the water, the beaches beyond still empty.
  • A private chef aboard, sourcing each day's catch and produce from the ports you pass.
  • Evenings ashore at a harbour town of your choosing, then back to the quiet of your own deck.

A sense of the rhythm

Life aboard sets its own tempo. You wake to open water, choose a cove for the morning, and let the afternoon decide whether to sail on or stay. The crew handles everything unseen, leaving you only the sea, the light and the next horizon.

Sailing yacht or motor yacht for the islands

A sailing yacht offers a quieter, more elemental passage and slips into the smallest coves with ease. A motor yacht covers more water and more islands in the same days, with broader decks for entertaining. We match the vessel to how you wish to spend the sea.

How to do it well

The counsel our advisors give travelers planning this journey:

  • Charter is best secured nine to twelve months ahead for the peak summer windows.
  • Let us plan a flexible route rather than a fixed one; the finest coves reveal themselves with the day's weather.
  • Formentera's coves are at their most serene early and late in the day, before and after the day boats.
  • Pair a few nights ashore at the finest luxury hotels with your time at sea for the best of both.

What only your advisor can open

The difference between a good trip and an unrepeatable one is access — and access is a relationship, not a booking. Every guide, room and moment is chosen and sequenced for you.

Who it's for

Travelers who value privacy, time and doing it once — beautifully — and who would rather have one trusted advisor orchestrate every detail than assemble it themselves.

Estimated investment

From US$14,500 per traveler, based on double occupancy — scaled to your dates, party size and level of privacy. A starting point, not a final quote; confirmed once your advisor tailors the itinerary.

Designed entirely around you

Nothing here is a package. A Forest Travel advisor shapes the whole journey and stays one message away before and throughout your trip.
