About wind&friends

Known for sailing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 20°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for sailing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 2.2 km out (1 in 222). The sea is about 15°C in January, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Port Alcudia. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot, 1 wind sports spot and 3 kayak spots.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).

Rough cost (estimate): about US$1,050–US$2,000 each

about US$1,050–US$2,000 each · 6 nights, 2 sharing: flights, hire car, stay, food.

Our estimate from typical public prices, not a quote: check the real prices before you book (where they come from). Prices are about, in US Dollar (USD): our pound figures at the European Central Bank's rate of 30 October 2026.
