Scuba Diving
Mallorca is one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean and a true paradise for diving enthusiasts. With its crystal-clear waters, abundant marine life, and fascinating underwater caves, it offers some of the best diving experiences in Europe.
Among the most popular diving spots to plunge into the water and enjoy diving in Mallorca are Cap de Formentor, very close to the Alcudia area and our VIVA Sunrise and VIVA Blue & Spa, Cala Banyalbufar, Cala Pi, or Cala Tuent and Sant Pere (located in the north of the island). Mallorca has many diving schools that offer courses and excursions for all types of divers.
Kayaking and Paddleboarding
Kayaking and paddleboarding, also known as stand-up paddle or SUP, are two popular water sports you can practice in Mallorca. Kayaking involves paddling in a small boat, which can accommodate one or more people. In Mallorca, you can rent a kayak to explore the island’s stunning coastline, visit sea caves, and enjoy the rich marine life. Paddleboarding is done standing on a board similar to a surfboard but larger and more stable, using a long paddle to move across the water. It’s essential to choose areas with calm waters to maintain balance on the sea.
Both water activities are excellent ways to enjoy Mallorca’s beautiful natural environment and are accessible to people of all ages and skill levels.
