FAQ

We rent our boats with license and with captain in Port d’Alcudia and boats that don’t require any licenses in Can Picafort.

As of 2025, there have been significant restrictions imposed by Port d’Alcúdia. Previously, boats up to 5 meters in length with a maximum power of 15 horsepower could be operated without a license. However, now all recreational vessels require a boating license regardless of size or engine power. This change means that non-licensed boats are no longer permitted in Port d’Alcúdia.
Non-licensed boats always have had a mileage restrictions therefore even if you already rented a non-licensed boat from Alcudia you have not seen areas you can visit while renting a boat from Can Picafort. If you are our returning customer you have a great opportunity to visit another part of Alcudia Bay using non-licensed boat.

Although our boats have special insurance this will not cover some small damages or equipment lose / damage ( such as loss of anchor or broken bimini or lifejacket lost etc.). That is why we charge you security deposit.

If you return boat and its equipment as it was given to you your security deposit will be returned entirely.

In case of any damage we will take the respectful amount from the deposit to cover repair. A remaining amount will be refunded.

Spanish law allows you to sail with boats up to 5 m with engine max. 15 HP without sailing license, but you can rent such boats only in Can Picafort.
Nevertheless there are some rules that you have to follow.
When driving a boat go 200 meters from shore but no further than 2 miles (around 3,2 km). So, in case of any troubles, weather changes etc. you can safely get back to the shore.
For any boats rented in Alcudia you need to have a boat license unless you want to rent a boat with a skipper.

Yes, there are some rules that you have to obey in order to provide safety to You,  your passengers and other boats.

Those rules are:

  1. Maximum speed in harbor is 3 knots per hour (around 4,6 km per hour). But the best is to drive as slowly as you can.
  2. Driving in or out from the harbor always stay on right hand side.
  3. Never go further than 2 miles from the shore.
  4. Don’t leave your boat unattended.
  5. To anchor the boat please remember to check the depth and seabed. We recommend to anchor between 3-7 meters ( never on the open sea and close to the rocks). Also, you have to see the sand on the seabed to avoid anchoring in the rocks. Please note, anchoring in the Posidonia reef is forbidden.
  6. Do not enter or anchor your boat in swimming areas. These areas are marked with yellow buoys.
  7. When driving close to the coastline or in the areas where other boats are anchored- please slow down and look for the swimmers , which might be in the water to avoid any collision.

Navigation is quite simple. We will provide you with a map of the coastline. On this map you will have the places which are worth seeing marked. When you start your trip you should have a coastline on your left-hand side. When you return to the harbor, the coastline should be on your right-hand side. We will also provide you with a briefing that takes around 30 minutes to ensure you know where to go and how to operate the boat.

We will ask you to pay 50 euro deposit for no license boat and 100 euro prepayment for license boat to secure your booking.

We will do our best to reschedule the day at your convenience. If this is impossible you will be given a refund of the reservation deposit.

All of our boats are child friendly and we will make sure to have the appropriate child life vests on board.
