Lagoon 50 at a Glance: Technical Specifications
Stepping aboard a Lagoon 50, you immediately notice the evolution of the brand’s DNA. This model is designed for luxury and stability, featuring a rig that is moved further aft to allow for a larger self-tacking jib and a shorter, easier-to-handle boom.

Why the Lagoon 50 is the Ultimate Choice for Mallorca
Mallorca’s coastline is defined by its diversity, ranging from the rugged cliffs of the Serra de Tramuntana to the shallow turquoise waters of Es Trenc. The Lagoon 50 is particularly suited for this environment due to its shallow draft of just 1.40 meters. This allows you to anchor much closer to the shoreline than a monohull of similar length, giving you "front row seats" in popular spots like Cala Mondragó or Sa Calobra.
The flybridge on the Lagoon 50 is a standout feature for Mediterranean sailing. With dual access points and a large sunbathing area, it provides a 360-degree vantage point that is essential when navigating the busy waters of the Bay of Palma. Additionally, the cockpit is flush with the saloon, creating a massive social space that stays cool thanks to the natural ventilation of the Lagoon’s signature vertical windows.
Pricing and Charter Types: Bareboat vs. Crewed
When renting a Lagoon 50 in Mallorca, the cost is primarily influenced by the season and the level of service required. You can browse our full fleet of luxury boats to compare similar models, but the Lagoon 50 remains a mid-to-high range option due to its size and recent build years (typically 2021-2025).
| Season | Months | Weekly Rate (Est. EUR) |
|---|---|---|
| Low Season | April, May, October | €6,500 – €9,500 |
| Mid Season | June, September | €11,000 – €15,000 |
| High Season | July, August | €17,000 – €22,000 |
Bareboat Charter: For experienced sailors with a valid ICC or RYA Day Skipper (plus the necessary GMDSS radio license in Spain), a bareboat charter offers total privacy. You are responsible for the vessel, mooring, and fuel.
Skippered Charter: Most guests chartering a Lagoon 50 in Mallorca opt for a professional skipper. This takes the pressure off navigation and allows the group to enjoy the flybridge. A skipper typically costs between €1,400 and €1,800 per week plus provisions.
Fully Crewed Charter: This includes a skipper and a chef/hostess. On a Lagoon 50, the crew usually occupies the bow peaks to maximize guest space in the main cabins. This is the ultimate luxury experience, focusing on high-end gastronomy and seamless service.
Top 1-Day Routes from Palma de Mallorca
If you are renting for a day or a long weekend, most charters start from Real Club Náutico de Palma or Marina La Lonja. A perfect day route involves heading West toward Portals Vells. This area offers three distinct coves with sandy bottoms—ideal for the Lagoon 50’s anchor. After a lunch on board, cruise toward the Malgrats Islands, a marine reserve where the snorkeling is world-class. If time permits, a final stop at Cala Fornells before returning to Palma offers a stunning sunset backdrop against the historic cathedral.
7-Day Itinerary: The Best of Mallorca and Cabrera
Chartering a Lagoon 50 in Mallorca for a full week allows you to cover approximately 100–130 nautical miles at a relaxed pace. This model cruises comfortably at 8-9 knots under engine and can easily reach 10+ knots under sail in the afternoon thermal winds.
- Day 1: Palma to Es Trenc. A gentle 25nm sail to the most famous beach in Mallorca. Anchor in the turquoise shallows.
- Day 2: Cabrera National Park. (Note: Requires a pre-booked permit). Spend the night on a mooring buoy in this pristine archipelago.
- Day 3: Cala d'Or and Porto Colom. Explore the charming "East Coast" fjords. Porto Colom offers excellent protection and traditional charm.
- Day 4: Cala Ratjada. Navigate toward the northeast tip. Visit Cala Agulla for its pine-fringed shores.
- Day 5: Bay of Alcúdia. Visit the historic town of Alcúdia and enjoy the long, sandy stretches of Muro beach.
- Day 6: Soller via the North Coast. This is a longer leg (approx 40nm) along the Tramuntana mountains. The scenery is dramatic and unmatched.
- Day 7: Port d’Andratx to Palma. A stop in the glamorous Port d’Andratx for coffee before a final downwind sail back to the capital.
Marinas and Logistics in Mallorca
Mallorca has some of the best maritime infrastructure in the Mediterranean, but it is also one of the busiest. When chartering a Lagoon 50, you must account for its 8.10-meter beam. Many marinas charge a premium for catamarans, often 1.5x to 2x the price of a monohull berth. In high season, a night in Puerto Portals or Port Adriano can cost between €300 and €600. It is highly recommended to book berths in advance via the Ports de les Illes Balears website or directly with the private marinas.
What is Included and the APA
When you book a Lagoon 50, the base price typically includes the boat rental, VAT (21% in Spain), and standard equipment. However, there are "mandatory extras" to consider:
- End Cleaning: Usually €400–€600 for a boat of this size.
- Transit Log / Starter Pack: Includes bed linens, towels, and outboard engine fuel.
- APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance): For crewed charters, an APA of 20-30% of the charter fee is collected to cover fuel, food, drinks, and mooring fees. Any unused portion is refunded at the end of the trip.
Best Time for a Mallorca Charter
The sailing season in Mallorca runs from late April to late October. For the best balance of weather and crowd control, we recommend June or September. During these months, the "Embat" (a local thermal wind) provides consistent afternoon breezes of 12-15 knots, perfect for the Lagoon 50’s sail plan. July and August offer the warmest waters (up to 27°C) but require early arrival at anchorages to secure a spot.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to rent a Lagoon 50 in Mallorca?
The price for renting a Lagoon 50 in Mallorca ranges from €7,000 per week in the low season to over €20,000 per week in August. These prices usually exclude fuel, skipper fees, and provisions. For specific regional details, visit our Mallorca yacht charter page.
Can I sail a Lagoon 50 bareboat in Mallorca?
Yes, provided you have a valid sailing license recognized by the Spanish authorities (such as the ICC or RYA Day Skipper) and a proven resume of handling large catamarans. Due to the 50-foot size and high value, some fleet operators may require a short check-out move with a skipper on Day 1.
Is the Lagoon 50 suitable for families with children?
Absolutely. The Lagoon 50 is one of the safest platforms for families. The wide side decks, high lifelines, and stable twin-hull design minimize motion sickness and provide plenty of "zones" for children to play safely while adults relax on the flybridge or the forward cockpit.
What is the fuel consumption of a Lagoon 50?
When motoring, the Lagoon 50 typically consumes between 15 and 25 liters per hour depending on RPM and sea conditions. On a standard 7-day Mallorca itinerary, you can expect a total fuel bill of approximately €500–€900, depending on how much you use the generator for air conditioning.
