The Bay of Palma at golden hour, seen from the water rather than a crowded viewpoint on shore. TSB Yachting arranges private sunset cruises around Mallorca, aboard your own boat with your own skipper, timed to the light and built around your evening, never a shared boat full of strangers.
Search "sunset cruise Mallorca" and most results point to a fixed-departure boat leaving Palma harbour on a schedule, sharing the deck with however many other tickets were sold that evening. It's a perfectly good way to spend an hour, but it isn't the same as having the boat, the route and the moment to yourselves. TSB Yachting arranges private sunset cruises instead: a boat reserved entirely for your group, a skipper whose job that evening is simply making the light and the water work for you, and a departure time set around when the sun is actually going down rather than a printed timetable.
What makes a sunset cruise work is less about the boat and more about the timing and the view. We plan the route so you're settled in a good position, often with Palma Cathedral and the old town catching the last light, well before the colour really starts to change, and we stay there or drift slowly along the coast as it happens rather than rushing back to a marina. A glass of cold cava is part of every cruise, and for anyone celebrating something specific, the whole evening can be built around that one moment rather than treated as an add-on.
Because sunset time moves through the year, from around six in the evening in winter to well past nine in midsummer, we confirm your exact departure once the date is set, and we plan around Mallorca's weather and light rather than a fixed hour that might miss it. Tell us roughly what you have in mind, whether that's a quiet evening for two, a small group celebration, or a proposal that needs to land at exactly the right second, and we'll match you to the right boat and route.
A relaxed two to three hour cruise along the Bay of Palma with cava aboard, ideal for couples, friends or simply finishing a day well.
Built around a proposal, anniversary or birthday, with flowers, champagne and the route timed to the exact moment you have in mind.
The same golden hour, under sail: a quieter, slower evening aboard a crewed sailing yacht once the engine is cut and the wind takes over.
Booking a private sunset cruise in Mallorca is a short, straightforward process, whether it's a quiet evening for two or a celebration you've been planning for months.
A relaxed cruise, a celebration, or something more specific like a proposal — tell us how many people are joining and what you'd like the evening to include.
Based on your group size, budget and the kind of evening you're after, we recommend a boat and skipper suited to the cruise, with a clear, itemised price.
Board at Puerto Portals or another convenient marina ahead of sunset, run through a short safety briefing, and set off with cava already chilling aboard.
Watch the light change over Palma's skyline or the western coastline, with the skipper adjusting position so you're always facing the view, not the wake.
Departures set around the actual sunset time for your date, not a fixed hour printed months in advance.
Every boat is personally inspected before it goes out, from intimate day boats to larger motor yachts.
The boat is reserved for your group alone: no strangers aboard, no shared schedule to work around.
A clear, itemised quote before you book, with nothing to negotiate once you're at the marina.
Every sunset cruise quote sets out exactly what's included before you book, so there is nothing to negotiate once you arrive at the marina.
A professional skipper who knows the coastline and the light, plus fuel for the agreed route, included in every quoted price.
Chilled cava as standard, with champagne, canapés or a full celebration spread available for special occasions.
Life jackets and all required safety gear aboard, plus a short briefing before you set off from the marina.
