Boat charter and tour companies in Port de Sóller
The round bay of Port de Sóller, framed by the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains, is one of Mallorca's most striking natural harbours – so it's no surprise that a lively scene of boat tours and charters has grown up around it. Along the promenade and the old fishing harbour, excursion boats, sailing yachts and small speedboats set off, opening up the rugged coastline between Sa Foradada and Cap Gros.
With 25 listings in this category, the offering in Port de Sóller ranges from classic licence-free boat rentals to guided snorkelling and sunset trips, all the way to half-day charters along the cliffs. Providers such as Barcos Azules and Sollermar are well-known local names, alongside numerous smaller rental operators and skippers working directly from the harbour basin, often just a few steps from the tram stop.
Anyone planning a trip will find the widest choice during the summer months, while some operators scale back in the off-season. Booking ahead is advisable, especially in peak months, as boats and popular time slots fill up quickly. The harbour is easily reached on foot from the bay, or alternatively by the historic tram from Sóller or by car along the winding road from the island's capital.
