Hiring a boat in Calvià
Calvià is the municipality with the most marinas in Mallorca: Puerto Portals and Calanova at Portals Nous, Port Adriano, Santa Ponsa, Palmanova and Magaluf, each with its own page, and these 8 companies are the ones registered in the municipality without a resort assigned, with motor yachts, skippered trips and motorboats; the top-rated has more than 60 reviews. In total, the Calvià coast holds more than 80 companies between Portals Nous (42), Santa Ponsa (29), Port Adriano (15), Palmanova and Magaluf (3 each), the island's biggest concentration after Palma, 8 km away. From any of its harbours you sail the bay of Palma, the Malgrats and the west coast to Andratx and Dragonera.
The season runs from April to October, and many companies close from November to March. The bay of Palma is sheltered from the north; the west coast, towards Andratx, gets up in a southerly.
