Charter Outremer in Mallorca: Models, Prices and Routes (2026)
The Most-Requested Outremer Models in Mallorca for 2026
Outremer catamarans are distinct from high-volume production cats; they are designed for sailors who enjoy the "feel" of the helm. For the 2026 season in Mallorca, three specific models dominate the luxury charter market, typically accommodating groups of 6 to 10 guests plus crew.
- Outremer 45: The agile entry point for performance cruising. Usually configured with 3 or 4 cabins, it is perfect for families or groups of 6 who want a fast, responsive vessel for jumping between Calas.
- Outremer 51: The most popular model in the fleet. It offers the perfect balance of living space and blue-water performance. With 4 double cabins and often a separate crew peak, it comfortably hosts 8 guests.
- Outremer 55: The flagship of the modern range. Known for its innovative modular helm stations and vast open-plan cockpit, this model is the premier choice for luxury charters in Mallorca, offering 4 spacious suites and high-end finishes.
- Outremer 52: The newest addition to the lineup, replacing the 51 with enhanced ergonomics and even better light-wind performance, ideal for the gentle breezes of the Mediterranean summer.
Charter Pricing: Weekly and Daily Rates in EUR
Pricing for an Outremer charter in Mallorca varies significantly based on the model year and the specific month of the 2026 season. As performance catamarans are in high demand and short supply, early booking is essential. Prices typically include the yacht and standard equipment, while 21% VAT and APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) are additional.

Top 1-Day Routes from Palma de Mallorca
Departing from the central hubs of Real Club Náutico de Palma or Marina Moll Vell, an Outremer’s speed allows you to cover more ground than a standard cruising cat. For a premium day experience, consider these routes:
The Western Escarpment: Head west toward Cala Llamp and Port d'Andratx. The Outremer's ability to point closer to the wind makes the beat up to the dragon-shaped island of Sa Dragonera an exhilarating experience. Stop for a swim in the crystal-clear waters of Sant Elm before a fast downwind run back to Palma.
The Southern Marine Reserves: Sail southeast toward Cala Blava and the marine protected area of Cap Rocat. The shallow draft (with daggerboards up) allows you to tuck into turquoise spots like Es Trenc or Cala Pi, where the white sands provide a stunning backdrop for a Mediterranean lunch on deck.
Extended 7-Day Mallorca Itinerary
A full week aboard an Outremer allows for a complete circumnavigation or a deep dive into the neighboring islands. You can browse our full selection of boats to find the perfect match for this journey.
- Day 1: Palma to Port d'Andratx. A short shake-down cruise to one of the island's most exclusive harbors.
- Day 2: Port d'Andratx to Port de Sóller. Sail along the rugged Tramuntana coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Outremer excels here, handling the afternoon thermal breezes with ease.
- Day 3: Port de Sóller to Pollença. Navigate past Sa Calobra and Cap de Formentor, the northernmost point of Mallorca.
- Day 5: Cala Ratjada to Porto Colom. A fast reach down the east coast, stopping at the pristine Cala Varques.
- Day 6: Porto Colom to Cabrera Archipelago. Visit the National Park (permit required). The Outremer’s eco-friendly setup is perfect for this sensitive environment.
- Day 7: Cabrera to Palma. A final morning swim at Es Trenc before returning to the capital.
Marinas and Logistics in Mallorca
The primary base for an Outremer charter is Palma de Mallorca. The city offers world-class infrastructure, including the Club de Mar and Marina Palma Cuarentena. These marinas provide easy access to Palma’s international airport (PMI), located just 15 minutes away.
When planning your logistics, remember that Outremer catamarans have a wider beam than monohulls, though they are often narrower than "condo-cats" like Lagoon or Fountaine Pajot. This makes berthing in smaller ports like Cala d'Or or Porto Petro slightly easier, but reservations for 2026 should still be made months in advance, especially for July and August.
What is Included in Your Charter?
Understanding the cost structure is vital for a seamless experience. Most Outremer charters in the Balearics are "plus expenses."
- Included: The yacht, standard safety equipment, insurance, and the initial tank of water. Some luxury charters include the end cleaning and bed linens in the base price.
- Skipper and Crew: Most Outremer models are chartered with a professional skipper who understands the specific performance characteristics of a daggerboard catamaran. Crew fees typically range from €1,500 to €2,500 per week.
- APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance): Usually 20-30% of the charter fee. This covers fuel, food, beverages, and mooring fees. Any unused amount is refunded at the end of the trip.
- VAT: In Spain, the statutory VAT for yacht charters is 21%, which is added to the base charter rate.
The Best Time for a Mallorca Sailing Charter
The Mallorca sailing season runs from May to October. For those prioritizing performance sailing on an Outremer, the "shoulder seasons" of June and September are ideal. During these months, the Embat (sea breeze) is reliable, providing consistent 15-20 knot winds without the peak summer heat or the crowded anchorages of August.
July and August offer the warmest waters, perfect for snorkeling in the Cala Mondragó nature reserve, but require more careful planning for overnight moorings. If you are looking for a bespoke experience combining land and sea, explore our options for a Mallorca villa and boat charter to maximize your time on the island.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a special license to charter an Outremer bareboat?
Yes, to charter an Outremer without a skipper in Mallorca, you must possess a valid ICC (International Certificate of Competence) or an equivalent national RYA/ASA certification. Furthermore, because Outremers are high-performance vessels with daggerboards, many owners require a "sailing CV" demonstrating previous experience on performance multihulls.
Is an Outremer suitable for families with children?
Absolutely. While they are built for speed, Outremers are incredibly stable. The trampoline area at the bow is a favorite spot for children, and the flat sailing platform reduces the risk of seasickness. However, the performance lines and winches are more active than on a standard cruising cat, so active supervision is required.
How far in advance should I book for the 2026 season?
Because there are relatively few Outremer catamarans available for charter compared to standard brands, it is recommended to book at least 8 to 12 months in advance. For peak weeks in July and August 2026, many vessels are reserved by the end of 2025.
What is the fuel consumption like on an Outremer?
One of the advantages of an Outremer is its efficiency. Because they sail exceptionally well even in light winds (5-8 knots), you will likely use the engines far less than you would on a heavier catamaran. This significantly reduces your fuel costs within the APA budget.
