breakfast we head off between the island
of Dragonera and St Elmo on our cruise up
to our overnight anchorage at Pto. Soller.
On the way we stop for a while under the
impressive rock formation of Sa Fordada,
once the home of the Archduke Louis Salvador.
We arrive at the pretty enclosed port of Soller where we go ashore using
the tender. Here there is a lovely 1930s tram which takes you up to the
old town of Soller. We have a BBQ dinner served on the fly bridge with
a view of the setting sun. After dinner why not relax with an after dinner
drink in the Hot Tub.

Day 3
Today
we head off north again after our breakfast,
along the way we see a number of little settlements,
some dating back to the time of the Arab
occupation over 700 years ago.
We visit the lovely Gorge at La Calobra where you can go ashore to walk
up the Gorge for a short distance and see the hopefully dry waterfalls.
We then head off north to arrive on our berth for the night at Puerto Pollenca.
This is a very popular resort and there is a lovely pine walk where you
can stroll looking out at the lovely bay. There are a number of little
shops and some restaurants here or you can have dinner on board.
Day 4
After
breakfast we cruise up to the bay of Formentera where
you can relax and swim before going ashore to see the
famous Hotel Formentor, here you can use their beach
bar and if you wish enjoy their famous buffet lunch.
After lunch we head off south towards our evening berth
at the lovely marina of Cala D Ór . This is
one of the best marinas on the island with many good
restaurants and shops. It is always a favourite place
with our guests. Here you can eat ashore or have dinner
on board. This is a popular place where holiday makers
walk past each night looking at all the boats and deciding
which is the best, you will be on one of the biggest
and best boats here.

Day 5
We
head south after looking into lots of lovely
coves and calas, we see Pto Petro, Cala Mondrago
and Cala Santany before arriving at the pretty
fishing port of Cala Figuera. We stop for
a swim and lunch before heading to our evening
anchorage at the Cabrera Islands.
Islands make up the Cabrera nacional park, a nature reserve and a place
is totally unspoilt and one of the nicest places to go in the Balearic
islands. We have dinner on board and see the sun setting in this tranquil
setting, perhaps to the voice of Andrea Boccelli over the Bang Olufsen
sound system. After dinner relax in the Jacuzzi– Hot tub. This is
the end to a perfect day.

Day 6
Before
leaving the anchorage it is a great idea
to go ashore in the tender and do the gentle
walk up to the ancient castle, which was
once used as a prison where the Spanish kept
their French prisoners, most of whom died
here. On the return to the waterfront stop
for a at the little Taverna for a well earned
beer or a coffee before heading back to the
yacht.
We
now set off for our cruise back to Palma.
Lunch is taken at anchor in Es trenc,
which is one of the best beaches on the
island. watch out though for the nudists.
On our 2 tour trip back from here we
will call to see the pretty Cala Pi,
then it´s off to Palma where we
arrive in time for dinner to be taken
on board of at one of the restaurants
on the paseo maritimo.
