Description

IB Yachting is a sailing school and charter operator based in Palma, offering both nautical training and guided sailing trips around Mallorca.

Training and Charter Under One Roof

IB Yachting brings two things together: preparation for boating licences — including the Patrón de Recreo (PER), Patrón de Yate and Capitán de Yate — and guided charter trips. Training covers both theory and hands-on time on the water, with the focus on genuine learning rather than simply passing an exam. If you already hold a PER licence, you can also sit the extension exam at IB Yachting, which includes a 24-hour practical session.

Small Groups, Personal Attention

Whether you're joining a charter trip or taking a course, IB Yachting keeps things small and personal rather than herding people through en masse. The boats are well maintained, comfortable and properly equipped. Food is served on board — from tapas to full prepared meals. On excursions, you'll reach coves and stretches of Mallorca's coastline with just a handful of fellow passengers.

Skippers and Team

The team includes several skippers as well as support staff coordinating things behind the scenes. When you book a trip or course, you'll generally have a dedicated point of contact for organising everything. Depending on the trip, snorkelling gear and paddleboards may also be available on board.

Based at the Real Club Náutico de Palma

IB Yachting operates from the Real Club Náutico de Palma, Plaza de San Pedro 1, in the Centre district of Palma. Both training sails and charter trips depart from here.

A Note Before You Book

Some guests have reported unexpected charges made after their trip without prior notice, and difficulty getting in touch with the company afterwards. It's worth keeping a written record of your payment details and agreed terms before you set off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which boating licences can I obtain at IB Yachting?
IB Yachting offers courses for the Patrón de Recreo (PER), Patrón de Yate and Capitán de Yate — covering theoretical and practical training as well as handling the licence paperwork.
Is IB Yachting suitable for charter trips if I don't hold a licence?
Yes. IB Yachting organises guided trips with experienced skippers on board, so you don't need a licence of your own to join.
How large are the groups on trips and courses?
IB Yachting deliberately keeps groups small and personal — a conscious alternative to the crowded boat-trip experience.
