Catamaran rental in Palma: a volatile market

Reading by Clément Lacaille, the site’s editor, as of 22 Sept 2026

Palma is our most volatile series. The median catamaran day was about €3,600 for early-August departures, jumped to about €8,500 for September departures, then came back to roughly €3,800 for October. The number of catamarans visible moves the other way: 16 to 23 in July, only 7 to 9 in late August, 16 to 20 again since.

When few boats remain, the cheaper ones have gone and the median jumps. Book once supply is back, or well before it dries up.

What research says

Tourism seasonality on Mediterranean islands (2008-2018) remains heavily concentrated in summer, which explains the price gap between peak and shoulder season — Ruggieri & Platania (2024), Sustainability, doi:10.3390/su16093674

Catamaran hire in Mallorca: by the day or by the week

Out of Palma, two formats dominate. The skippered day-cat takes up to 12 passengers around the bay of Palma: a swim at Illetes, an anchorage off the Portals Vells coves, home at sunset — €800–1,500 per day depending on size and season. By the week, fleets turn over Saturday to Saturday: expect €3,000–8,000 for a 4-cabin cruiser like a Lagoon 40, bound for Es Trenc, the Llevant coast or the Cabrera archipelago (a national park — mooring buoys must be booked ahead).

Where do you leave from, and when should you book?

Departures cluster around the bay of Palma — the city marinas and the neighbouring ports of Can Pastilla and Portals. July and August sell out weeks ahead; June and September offer the same water for 30–40% less. The same catamarans list at different prices depending on the platform — exactly the spread Boat-Comparator measures live.
