The 15 Best 3-Hour Experiences in Mallorca

1.3-Hour Afternoon Dolphin Watching Boat Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 1,095 reviews · from $48Our pick

Spend three hours offshore from Santa Ponsa or Paguera searching for wild dolphins, viewing sea life through semi-submerged windows, and swimming from a glass-bottom catamaran. You get two onboard bars, a sun deck, multilingual guides, and a swim stop, but sightings depend on nature.

“Queue looked overcrowded but on board we went outside on deck so fine. As we boarded staff took a photo of us. The whole experience was glorious. Though we couldn't hear everything the captain said we loved every moment. The sea was a navy colour I've never seen before. We did get some glimpses of dolphins so that was delightful. My son felt a bit sea wobbly for a while but nothing was stopping him from joining in the swim stop! The swim stop was tricky treading water in deep sea. I kept holding on to the rope hanging from the boat. So glad I joined in. I went down…”

3.3-Hour Morning Dolphin Watching Boat Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 423 reviews · from $63

Set out from Palma at 10:30 aboard the Carpe Diem to search for dolphins along Mallorca’s southwest coast. After the wildlife viewing, stop at a clear-water cove for swimming and snorkeling. Choose Palma departure or bus pickup from Playa de Palma, Arenal, or Can Pastilla.

“The trip was good. We saw plenty of dolphins and the crew were mindful to give them space and switched off the engine. Swimming spot was great. My only negative comment would be that we were bussed from Palma harbour to a dive of a resort about 30 minutes away to catch the boat. By the time we arrived and taking into account the bus journey back, a 3-hour trip took most of the day. Nowhere in the description did it mention this.”
