Imagine feeling the wind in your hair as you glide over clear, turquoise waters, passing by rugged cliffs and sandy beaches along Mallorca’s iconic coast. For travelers seeking a mix of adventure and authentic scenery, the Cala D’or Beach Jet Ski Tour offers a lively, memorable experience that combines thrill and natural beauty. At around $128 per group (up to 2 people), this 30-minute jet ski ride is a fantastic way to add some adrenaline to your Mallorca holiday without breaking the bank.
What we love most about this tour are two key points: first, the comprehensive beginner instruction ensures everyone feels confident before hitting the water, and second, the stunning coastal views make every second on the jet ski worth it. From the moment we started, it was clear that safety and enjoyment were top priorities. One potential drawback? The cameras are not allowed during the ride, so you’ll need to rely on the instructor’s photos—though we found the professional shots capture the action beautifully.
This experience is perfect for those who want a short, high-energy taste of Mallorca’s coastline. It’s ideal if you’re looking for a safe, guided adventure with a splash of excitement, especially for slightly adventurous travelers or first-time jet skiers.

The Itinerary and What to Expect
The tour begins at Club Nautic Porto Petro, a well-known marina with a friendly vibe. Once you check in, the first part of your adventure is a comprehensive jet ski lesson. Here, your instructor will explain the theory of riding, safety procedures, and basic handling, ensuring that even novices feel prepared.
After the briefing, you’ll gear up with life vests and safety gear, then hop onto your jet ski. The instructor will snap photos of you in action—an excellent way to remember the fun without worrying about capturing the moment yourself, since cameras are not allowed during the ride.
The 30-minute ride takes you along the coastline, where you’ll experience the power of the jet ski as you skip over waves and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of Cala D’or’s cliffs, beaches, and crystal-clear waters. While the ride is relatively short, it offers enough momentum to feel exhilarating, yet manageable enough for beginners to enjoy.
Throughout the journey, you can expect to pass by notable landmarks and scenic spots, making the most of your time on the water. The instructor’s guidance ensures a smooth ride, and the small group size means personalized attention and safety.
Once your ride concludes, you’ll return to the marina, where you can relax and ponder your next Mallorca adventure or head to a nearby beach to unwind. Many travelers love to combine this experience with some beach time, especially since the tour ends back at the starting point.
