In this new, revised and updated edition you will find a wealth of local information regarding shore side attractions, alongside an exhaustive recommendations based listing of yacht support service providers. On request from many crew we have included a section for Barcelona. The first section of this guide highlights major local features of interest to yachtsmen cruising the region. These include marinas and harbours, local attractions and sights, restaurants & hotel recommendations, outdoor activities, spas and much more. Visiting seafarers, guests or crew, will find amongst these pages valuable information that we hope will help them make the most of their stay in the Balears. The second section of the book is a recommendation-based directory of private companies offering yacht, crew and guest support services. Readers will find here four distinct categories: Getting Around, Provisioning, Yacht and Crew Support and Miscellaneous. The directory now covers the vast majority of businesses interacting with the yachting community. This guide is the result of exhaustive on site research, backed by recommendations from captains, crew and yacht owners. We hope that the Yacht Insider’s Guides will prove to be a useful tool during your stay in the Balearic Islands. About this guide The fourth edition to the Balearic Islands was compiled and written by Maria and Gilles Herant in the winter of 2012/2013. Both authors have a professional experience of over 20 years in the Mediterranean yachting industry: Maria started crewing on yachts in the late 80’s, and has remained close to the industry ever since. She published the first ever dedicated yacht shore service guides to The Dodecanese Islands and Turkey, and has been involved in numerous publications since then. Gilles is an ex shipyard manager, who spent over 15 years working in the industry in Greece, before switching to yacht surveying and engineering. Above all, both have the detachment necessary to produce a truly independent and objective guide. Shorelink Publications Shorelink Publications is the brainchild of Anne Vandromme, a yachting journalist, in partnership with Rick Hood of Newport, graphic designer, and Maria & Gilles Herant, yachting professionals. The New England Guide is now into its fifth edition, the Balearics Guide fourth edition and the the French Med Guide is now in its third edition. All the information is included on the dedicated Yacht Insider’s Guide website, were you can access the business database and download full online editions of all three guides. We have started to include recommended services from other locations around the world, including the Caribbean, Greece, United Kingdom and Asia.

In town, an already large network of cycle lanes is constantly being extended, making cycling around the city one of the fastest (and nicest) ways to get from A to B.

It is now also possible to cycle all the way to Santa Ponsa (via Portals) to the North on the cycle track, bar a gap between Club de Mar and Illetes. Other popular local short rides include Cami de sa Creu, a narrow road leading to a 400 meter pass right above Palma town. The road starts at junction 9 on the ring road (next to Genova), and the return trip can be made via Establiments or Calvia. The ride up to the Monument above Genova is also popular and can be extended to an off road ride towards Bendinat, Portals or Calvia. Further out of town, a large number of signposted cycle routes crisscross the island, while on some of the remote rural lanes bicycles even have priority on car traffic! The Sierra Tramuntana to the north offers good cycling for the hardy (or the unhurried). To the south east of town, the tracks towards Arenal and Llucmajor offer a more relaxing and scenic and rewarding option. Still reasonably close to town, the area above Bunyola towards the Cas Guarriger outdoor center is a popular off road and downhill destination. Note that bicycles are transported free of charge in special compartments on the TIB train line towards Sa Pobla / Manacor, and that most public buses will take at least two bicycles in their luggage compartment.

Stretching between Palma harbour to the east and the nature reserve of Dragonera Island to the west, the western section of the Mallorquin coastline offers numerous anchorage possibilities in picturesque bays as well as a number of well-sheltered marinas. Despite years of shore side real estate developments, this area has retained a lot of its natural beauty, and is an ideal cruising ground close to Palma. The chic Puerto Portals Marina, only a ten minute drive away from town, is home to many luxury yachts and has become a magnet for the rich and famous; it is no surprise that a wide range of yacht support businesses have elected to settle here. Slightly further afield, the new development of Port Adriano, a dedicated super yacht marina that opened its doors in late 2010 promises to further establish the west coast as a major up market yachting destination. Port Adriano hosted a number of yachting and cultural events during 2012, and is proving to be popular, with a large number of yachts in the harbour and boatyard. Still further, cruising yachts will discover Santa Ponsa with its scenic Yacht Club; many will push on towards the picturesque Port of Andratx, nestling in a deep bay surrounded by 34 34 Photography courtesyPhotography of Billy Blackcourtesy and Greater of Jainie Portland Cowham CVBPhotography (upper right) towering cliffs before heading on towards the north coast, Ibiza or Formentera.

For more information visit www.yachtinsidersguide.com © OpenStreetMap and contributors Attractions 69 As the eastern most of the Balear islands, Menorca is also the most remote and the quietest. The island has opted from early days to direct its infrastructure towards tourism of quality rather then quantity; this translates today, for the cruising yachtsmen, into a wilder more attractive coastline as well as harbours that have retained a large part of their historical character. Cruising yachts will find only a few marinas outside of Mahon, but a multitude of calas, coves and bays offer ample shelter in unspoilt surroundings. Despite the lack of quayside berths available, the old capital of Ciutadella should not be missed. Curiously, Menorca’s history has followed a completely different track to that of neighbouring Mallorca. The Moor’s domination lasted longer here, the Turks occupied some of the island, the Jewish community was important and the British took possession throughout the18th Century.

The marina is currently being upgraded and all berths will eventually be connected to electricity and water. The 130 berths on pontoons in Cala Llonga have already been upgraded and connected to the grid. The marina setting is pretty and the location only a quick tender hop from town.

WHAT TO DO Attractions Ciutadella Ciutadella Market & Old Town The old town is surrounded by a street called the “Contramurada” which follows the line where the old city walls once stood. The old city is charming with its different quarters, palaces and churches. The market is held in the courtyard of a beautifully restored former convent, its worth going along just to see the building. There are many watchtowers to explore around the city; a full day can easily be spent visiting the narrow alleys and sights The Principal, as it is known colloquially, is one of the oldest opera houses in Spain. It was built in 1829 and every year it is host to the much celebrated “Opera Week”. The theatre also provides an important venue to illustrate Menorcan culture. For more information and forthcoming productions visit: www.teatremao.org Museu Municipal de Ciutadella What was originally a fortress, the Bastio de Sa Font was renovated and became the museum in the 1990’s. The islands wealth of archaeological excavations, are housed here; collections include Iron Age skulls, Roman coins and jewellery. Santa Maria This church in Ciutadella was rebuilt between 1748 and 1772 after the desecration of the cathedral by the Turks under Barbarossa in 1558 and the collapse of the vaults of the apse in 1626; the damage was quickly repaired in the original style. It is famously the home to a great organ with over 3000 pipes. Organ recitals are held daily. Mahon Castell de Sant Felip This fortress was destroyed by the Spanish in 1782. The interesting guided tour does take a few hours but is highly educational. Cavalleria This area to the west of Fornells is of special interest due to the many archaeological finds and remains throughout the area; excavation is still underway. There is also a museum holding the archaeological finds. Fortaleza de la Mola An incredible 19th Century fort to the side of the harbour in Mahon. This really is the landmark of the harbour. Guided tours are available. Museu de Menorca Situated in a former monastery, Menorca’s largest museum has on display archaeological finds from around the island; plus a large collection of fine art. Museu Fort Marlborough Fort Marlborough was built by the British in the late 18th century and was named after the Duke of Marlborough. The unusual seven-sided building withstood many attacks over the years but was never destroyed. Xoriguer Gin Distillery Located rather conveniently on the harbour front, this has to be a must to visit, as the gin can be sampled and bought on site {wonder if they serve it with tonic!}. Menorca was formally under British rule, and the port was teeming with English ships and sailors. As gin was the tipple of the day the Pons family started to import juniper berries and begin distilling the famous Xoriguer gin. www.xoriguer.es Around Menorca Castel de Santa Agueda Take a walk up the old Roman road to the ruins of this castle, formally a Roman stronghold. Great views as it’s one of the highest points on the island. The castle is close to Ferreries. Cova d’en Xoroi As previously mentioned these caves are worth a visit day or night. Fantastic views out to sea but even more special is that inside the cave is a nightclub. Unbelievable atmosphere. A must to do while in Menorca, even though the steep steps could be a real problem at the end of a long night! Mount Toro As the highest point on the island (all 354 metres!) visiting is a must. A sanctuary built in the 16th century culminates the hill crowned by a cross to Jesus (of the Sacred Heart of course). Fantastic views across the island; Mallorca can be seen on a clear day.

The summer festivals see the horses parade and dance festooned in ribbons and embroidered saddles. Back in the 1300’s Juame II decreed that Menorcans patrol the cliff tops on horseback to lookout for enemy ships and pirates, and the black Menorcan breed has lasted ever since. The bridal paths, better known as the Cami de Cavalls were under British and French rule expanded and eventually formed a pathway around the whole island. Over the years the pathways became overgrown and unused but during the 1990s the 186 kilometers were brought back to life and they are yet again used not only for horseriding but also for cycling and walking. The Cami de Cavall takes in some of the most beautiful Menorcan coastline and it would be a shame to visit the island and not enjoy at least a few routes around the island.

Having earned itself the reputation of Spanish capital of hedonistic tourism, most visitors will be surprised to find a well-preserved island, with a huge amount of charm and history, which has been recognised as a World Heritage site. Yes, Eivissa is party town and has been for over 40 years! From sunsets on the beach enjoying the latest DJ’s sound creations all the way to late night –or should I say early morning clubbing, the town truly deserves its place amongst the great party capitals of the world. The island has developed a music scene and style that is quintessentially Ibiza! Yet, those seeking a quieter time will not find all this frantic nightlife invasive. Eivissa is a beautiful historic city, with a charming old town, full of tradition and character, and there is no lack of calas and anchorages further afield to satisfy the most demanding yachtsmen. The often-rugged coastline dominated by steep pine clad hills is rich in natural beauty, and remains in its vast majority to this day wild and unspoilt. 80 Photograph Stuart Photography of BillyPearce Black Photograph courtesycourtesy of courtesy Jean of Jacques Rigaud For more information visit www.yachtinsidersguide.com 81 NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS Balearic Islands Ibiza Eivissa Marina Botafoch Paseo Marítimo s/n, 07800, Ibiza Tel: 971 311 711 info@marinabotafoch.com www.marinabotafoch.com Total 430 berths • Visitor’s berths • Fixed concrete piers/pontoons • Max LOA 30 meters • Max draft 3-4 meters • Power 220/380v.
