Nature conservation in Majorque for groups

Observe species and seagrass meadows while snorkelling, discover ecological monitoring methods and connect your observations with sustainable tourism and the circular economy. For scout and school groups, the focus is on guided observation and teamwork. Student groups explore data collection methods, habitat management and local business practices in greater depth.

Day 1: From Palma airport to Port de Pollença

The team meets you at Palma de Majorque airport (PMI) and accompanies your group to Port de Pollença. After settling in and attending a welcome meeting, you have lunch together. The afternoon is spent on the beach, with free time and team-building activities led by your group leaders. After dinner, the team introduces the week’s programme.

Day 2: First swim and walk to Cala Bóquer

The morning starts with a walking tour of Port de Pollença, followed by a safety and risk briefing before your first swim in the bay. In the late afternoon, your group walks through the Bóquer valley to Cala Bóquer. This rocky cove offers a closer look at the coastline, with an opportunity to swim.

Day 3: Walk to Puig de Maria and conservation discussion

A short bus ride takes you to the old town of Pollença. From there, you walk up to the Puig de Maria sanctuary. At the top, you enjoy team games and lunch overlooking the two bays. Back in Port de Pollença, a documentary and a facilitated discussion introduce conservation and sustainable tourism ahead of the marine outings.

Day 4: Exploring Posidonia seagrass meadows

The day begins with an introduction to Posidonia and its role in the Mediterranean. Its meadows provide a habitat for many species and help protect beaches from erosion. You reach Punta de l’Avançada by kayak or paddleboard, then snorkel over the seagrass meadows. The team introduces examples of monitoring methods. After a beach picnic, you have free time in Port de Pollença.

Day 5: The Formentor peninsula

Your group travels to Formentor by bus for half a day of marine activities led by the team. After a picnic and time on the beach, you continue to the Formentor lighthouse before returning to Port de Pollença.

Day 6: The circular economy and exploring Pollença

At Sa Cabreta, a local business, you discover how a small organisation can support its community and put the circular economy into practice. An optional paddleboarding session is available. Your group then walks around 6 km to Pollença for lunch, a guided tour of the old town and dinner.

Day 7: Caving at Es Coloms

The local team takes you to Es Coloms for a guided caving trip. You explore Majorque’s limestone landscape from within. A picnic is provided during the excursion. You return in the mid-afternoon, with some final free time before the farewell dinner.

Day 8: Return to Palma airport

After breakfast, a shuttle takes your group to Palma airport for check-in and departure.

Seven nights in Port de Pollença, the base for activities in northern Majorque.
