Mallorca’s premier international nautical event, the Palma International Boat Show, takes place from 27 – 30 April and is generally regarded as the start of the nautical season in the Mediterranean.

Now in its 40th year, the show is expected to attract more than 32,000 visitors and will feature 276 exhibitors.

Yacht Management Mallorca’s Paul Clough explained: “In my opinion, one of the principal attractions is the 264 plus boats on display from all over the world presenting new models including, according to the organisers, the largest display of large sailing yachts of up to 24m in Europe in the show’s Superyacht Village.

“Sustainability will be one of the highlights, with a section dedicated to new electric models, which are becoming increasingly more viable with evolving technology, as well as other models that use solar power to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels.
Paul continued: “The location, which extends over the entire Moll Vell Marina in the centre of Palma, against a backdrop of the city’s historic old town and Palma Cathedral is unique.

“Its central position means that there is a good range of restaurants, bars and cafes all within walking distance of the show and, for overseas visitors, Palma is only a 15-minute taxi ride away from the airport.”

In short, this show has something for everyone and provides a great excuse for a flying weekend visit to Palma.

Entrance tickets are available for €11 per person per day or €38.50 for the entire show: palmainternationalboatshow.com.
