Skippered Catamaran Charters in Menorca
Discover the untouched beauty of Menorca from the comfort of a luxury multihull. Our skippered catamaran charters offer the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, allowing you to explore hidden turquoise coves without the stress of navigation. Whether you are seeking a family holiday or a getaway with friends, Menorca’s crystal-clear waters provide the ultimate backdrop for an unforgettable sailing experience.
Luxury and Comfort on the Water
When you book our skippered catamaran charters, you are choosing a vessel designed for stability, space, and privacy. Our fleet in Menorca includes modern models from prestigious shipyards like Lagoon and Fountaine Pajot, featuring spacious en-suite cabins, expansive sun decks, and shaded lounge areas. Your professional skipper is included in the service, taking full responsibility for the yacht's safety, mooring, and navigation. This allows you to focus entirely on your guests. Most charters also include essential equipment such as paddleboards, snorkeling gear, and final cleaning services to ensure a seamless transition from the marina to the open sea.
Sailing Routes: From Mahón to Ciutadella
Menorca offers two distinct coastal experiences depending on the wind. Starting from the Port of Mahón, one of the world's largest natural harbors, you can head south to discover the iconic white sands of Cala Macarella, Cala Turqueta, and Cala Mitjana. These spots are perfect for anchoring a catamaran due to its shallow draft. Alternatively, the rugged northern coast offers a wilder landscape. Sailing toward Fornells, you can explore the Marine Reserve of Northern Menorca, stopping at Cala Pregonda to admire its unique red sands and crystalline waters. Your skipper will monitor the 'Tramuntana' winds to ensure you always find the calmest, most picturesque anchorages.
Pricing and Booking Process
The cost of chartering a catamaran with a skipper in Menorca varies based on the season and the size of the vessel. During the peak months of July and August, prices typically range from €1,200 to €2,500 per day. In the shoulder seasons of June and September, you can find excellent value with rates starting around €900 per day. These prices generally include the yacht and the skipper's fee, while fuel, provisioning, and mooring fees in ports other than the base marina are usually extra. Booking is straightforward: select your dates, choose your preferred catamaran, and our concierge team will handle the contracts and itinerary planning.
Planning Your Menorca Sailing Holiday
The best time for skippered catamaran charters in Menorca is between late May and early October when the Mediterranean climate is most favorable for swimming and sunbathing. To enhance your experience, many of our clients choose to combine a week at sea with a few days in one of our luxury villas in Binibeca or near Ciutadella. This allows you to experience both the vibrant island culture and the serenity of the ocean. We recommend booking at least six months in advance for summer dates, as the demand for high-end catamarans in the Balearics is exceptionally high.

FAQ
What are the benefits of choosing skippered catamaran charters over a bareboat?
Choosing a skippered charter ensures a stress-free vacation. The skipper handles all technical aspects, including anchoring in tight coves and navigating weather changes. Furthermore, local skippers have insider knowledge of Menorca’s best-hidden spots and the best times to visit popular beaches like Cala Trebalúger to avoid the crowds.
Do I need to provide food for the skipper?
Yes, it is standard maritime practice to provide provisions for your skipper. You can either include them in your onboard meals or provide a small daily allowance for them to eat ashore. Many clients enjoy having the skipper join them for lunch, though they are always respectful of your private space and time.
Where does the catamaran depart from in Menorca?
Most of our catamarans are based in the Port of Mahón (Maó) or the Port of Ciutadella. Mahón is ideal for exploring the southeast and northern coasts, while Ciutadella provides quicker access to the famous southern 'Calas'. We will confirm your specific departure point at the time of booking.
How many people can sleep on a catamaran charter?
Our catamarans typically feature 4 to 6 double cabins, comfortably accommodating 8 to 12 guests. When booking a skippered charter, remember to reserve one cabin (or a separate bow crew cabin) for the captain. This ensures everyone has a comfortable living arrangement during the journey around the island.
