Check-in on the Isla Ebusitana starts at 14.00. We can then spend the day in Port d’Andratx, a port that over time has turned from a pure fishing village into one of the most favored addresses for nu-merous residents. The close neighborhood of fancy yachts and traditional fishing boats is one of the special charms of this port. The tour begins with a first communal dinner.

After breakfast begins our first bicycle tour, which takes us in a great circle via Peguera and the fertile region around Andratx back to Port d’Andratx. We spend the afternoon on the ship, sailing on a fairly long cruise to Santa Eularia on Ibiza, which is considered one of the most beautiful vacation spots on the island.
Once there, we have time for a refreshing swim on one of the three local sand beaches or for a stroll along the so-called Rambla ( originally this meant a riverbed used as a road). You spend the night in the harbour of Santa Eularia des Rin.

Today’s bike tour takes us after breakfast first to San Carles de Paralta, once the hub of the hippy movement on Ibiza, which even today retains some of its alternative charm. We continue through the agricultural centre of the island with the read earth characteristic for Ibiza. We have a long break for swimming at the beach of Benirras, before biking to San Miguel for lunch. The church, dating to the early 14th century, is one of the oldest on the island.
We carry on through the hilly north to Santa Gertrudis, which is considered Ibiza’s most beautiful town and whose tapa bars are known on the whole island. Do not miss out on tasting some of the special-ties before rolling downhill for the last kilometers to Ibiza Town, the vibrant centre of the island. We spend the night in the harbor of Ibiza Town.

The ship leaves the port of Ibiza already before breakfast and takes us in a short time to La Savina on the island of Formentera. This is the smallest of the Balearic Islands and retains much of its original charm. The destination of today’s bike tour is El Pilar and the lighthouse La Mola, where a commemo-rative plaque remembers Jules Verne, who mentions it in one of his novels. Behind the lighthouse, the cliffs fall off steeply for 140 m down to the sea, and it is said that in good weather conditions one can see as far as Africa from here.
In the afternoon, the Isla Ebusitana takes us for the night to Cabrera, a small, almost uninhabited archipelago south of Majorca. It is a national park today and a refuge for a number of rare bird spe-cies.

In the morning, the tour continues by ship to Portochristo, a small port on Majorca. After riding a first stretch a long the coast, we then turn inland towards Arta.
Arta fascinates immediately through its self-contained appearance crowned by the medieval fortifica-tion walls of the pilgrimage church of Sant Salvador. After a stroll through the lanes of this small town, we continue on to Capdepera, where the fortress and the walkable fortification walls are well worth a visit. We meet up with the ship in the harbor of Capdepera. From there we cross over to Minorca, to Ciutadella, which is picturesquely situated at a deep bay.

Today, we bicycle with your our guide right across the island of Minorca, which is protected by UNESCO as a bio-sphere reservation. Especially in spring, the island is covered by a carpet of Pop-pies, Marguerites, Hyacinths and Gladiolas. Via Ferreries and Es Marcadal, we bicycle to Mao, the pulsating civic centre of the island, located at one of the most picturesque natural harbors in the Medi-terranean. The following cruise takes us back to Majorca, where we spend the night at Portochristo which, especially at night, delights with its quiet, relaxed atmosphere.

It is only a skip and a jump to get in the morning from Portochristo to Cuevas del Drach, the „dragon caves“. They are one of the most extensive cave systems in Europe and have become known mainly for their subterranean lake on which hourly performances of classical pieces take place. Passing the cozy little town of Felanitx, the last bike trip of this tour ends in the port of Portocolom, named after Christopher Columbus. The ship then takes us back to Port d’Andratx, where during dinner we say goodbye to your crew and tour guides.

After breakfast, check-out on the Isla Ebusitana and individual return home.
