Menorca is a beautiful island with superb anchorages both to the south and north. Be careful with a catamaran on the price of the buoys, we were a little surprised to pay €90 for a buoy facing Colom Island on the East.

Sailing between Tarragona and Menorca in September is undoubtedly a fascinating experience, but it is essential to keep a close eye on the weather forecast to avoid unpleasant surprises. Bad weather can be unpredictable at this time of year, and safety must always be the priority. As for the boat, it is good to know that it performed excellently even in 34 kt winds. However, it is true that with such high wind intensity, the 49 hp engine is somewhat limited. In these conditions, sailing skills become crucial in order not to overly lengthen the crossing. Despite the intensity and duration of the crossing, which can last around 28 hours, the trip is a unique and memorable experience that deserves to be experienced at least once. The combination of a robust boat and good sailing technique can turn a challenging crossing into an unforgettable adventure. Definitely a trip that leaves a mark!

Really good morning, lovely being out on the water, having some information and history about the harbour and surroundings, then two spots moored in, one to swim and one to enjoy some drinks and a platter of local produce!

Iorana was a lovely boat to sail. For 2006 she was understandably a little tired in some areas (hence the excellent price) but this did not ruin a wonderful October holiday. Dani was simply superb - the best support and advice we have had on any bareboat charter. He provided daily weather analysis and recommendations of the best anchorage, harbours and restaurants, and was determined that we had the best experience possible.

Faultless experience - many thx Lolo for being such a great, relaxed skipper. A lovely boat (Odyssey 48) - far better value than the other boat we took out with a different company, and none of the aggro that we have had with them either. Many thx!

We had a great day with Jose exploring Cies islands. So nice to see the south island where only private boats can get to.

Thank you to Nick for an absolutely amazing time on the Wishbone!! The hen group thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we would highly recommend Nick to everyone else! We had lots of bubbles and good music on the speakers, and used the paddle board in the water too. I would recommend Nick, he was so easy to communicate with and got back to us with questions immediately!

Minorque est une ile magnifique avec des mouillages superbes tant au sud qu'au nord. Attention avec un cata sur le prix des bouées, nous avons été un peu surpris de payer 90 € pour une bouée face à l'Ile Colom sur l'Est.

La zona de navegación entre Tarragona y Menorca en septiembre es, sin duda, una experiencia fascinante, pero es esencial estar muy atento al parte meteorológico para evitar sorpresas desagradables. El mal tiempo puede ser impredecible en esta época del año, y la seguridad siempre debe ser la prioridad. En cuanto al barco, es bueno saber que se comportó excelentemente incluso con vientos de 34 kt. Sin embargo, es cierto que con una intensidad de viento tan alta, el motor de 49 hp resulta algo justo. En esas condiciones, la habilidad para navegar con vela se convierte en un aspecto crucial para no alargar excesivamente la travesía. A pesar de la intensidad y la duración de la travesía, que puede rondar las 28 horas, el viaje es una experiencia única y memorable que merece ser vivida al menos una vez. La combinación de un barco robusto y una buena técnica de navegación puede convertir una travesía desafiante en una aventura inolvidable. ¡Definitivamente, un viaje que deja huella!
