Ocean Charter Mallorca's Eclipse solar con el Ocean is a short, intimate cruise that sails from the port of Cala Figuera to Faro Salinas for a swim in clear water before moving to a designated, privileged area on the sea to observe a solar eclipse — all on a roughly 3.5-hour outing with snacks, drinks and snorkeling gear provided.

THE ECLIPSE

THE WATER

Stop at Faro Salinas for crystal-clear swimming

Before the eclipse viewing, the cruise pauses at Faro Salinas so participants can relax in clear waters and snorkel in a calm, scenic anchorage.

Small-boat comfort with provisions and gear included

The experience includes a professional captain, fuel, towels, snorkel masks, a paddle board, chilled drinks, a bottle of cava, seasonal fruit and other onboard comforts so guests can focus on the moment.
