The Santa Ponsa Yacht Club is located on one of the most beautiful coastlines of Mallorca in one of the island’s most elegant and at the same time most discreet seaports. Unlike many ports it is a quiet place, perfect for families. It is integrated into a residential complex with golf courses and close to many attractive spots, but is only 25 km away from Palma's international airport.
The port was built in 1975 in a natural cove called Sa Caleta. It was here on September 11th 1229 that King Jaime I ‘the Conqueror’ initiated the conquest of the Balearic islands, which were then under Islamic rule. This event is commemorated by the Cross of the Conqueror, located at the top of the cove and visible from the bay of Santa Ponsa.
The width of the cove (70 metres) guarantees easy access even in the worst weather. Upon entering the port, you see the fuel station with its 30-m-long dock, which makes for easy refuelling.
The visitor experiences a new sensation: a long shoreline between areas of greenery, with berths for more than 522 boats of lengths between 7 and 22 m. Everything here is different. It has the feel of a natural port combined with the necessary infrastructure to cover all the user's needs. Cafeterias, restaurants, a diving school and specialized shops are just a few of the facilities offered by the Yacht Club.
The boatyard, covering more than seven thousand square meters, has a complete array of services including mechanical workshops, paint workshops, rigging and upperwork services, nautical carpentry, signwriting, winter storage, a 50-ton travelift, a 9-ton forklift and a 1.5-ton crane for small boats. Moreover, the port staff and 24-hour surveillance make this port an ideal place of relaxation for all international visitors.
