Mallorca Llevant Natural Park Boat Tour from Can Picafort — Snorkel Coves & Cliffs
Boat out of Can Picafort for a 4–5 hour guided tour of Mallorca’s Llevant Natural Park—sea caves, deserted coves, snorkeling and cliff panoramas. A mix of calm anchorages and short swims, suitable for most travelers.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Strong sun and reflection off the water increase UV exposure—apply and reapply reef‑safe SPF to protect skin and marine life.
Pack a dry bag
Keep electronics and a spare layer dry on board; a small dry bag fits under seats and protects valuables during swims.
Plan for seasickness
Open water can be choppy beyond the bay—take preventative medication if you’re prone to motion sickness.
Wear reef shoes for landings
Some beach stops involve rocky entries; lightweight reef shoes help with traction and protect feet from sharp rock.

Conservation Note
Llevant is a protected natural park with sensitive marine and coastal habitats—use reef‑safe products, avoid trampling dunes, and follow guides’ instructions to minimize impact.
The Llevant coast has long been shaped by fishing and small agricultural settlements; Colonia de Sant Pere developed in the 20th century as a quiet port for local fisheries and tourism.
