Here’s what to expect at the 25th Anniversary Superyacht Cup. Let’s just say this, the experience is as large and luxurious as the yachts themselves… how very MAGNUM sized!
First, let’s talk about superyachts. Superyachts are like modern floating sculptures, operated by a crew of artist-like professionals and enjoyed by the world’s elite.
Aside from impressive size, superyachts are known for having top-of-the-line technology, speed and design. Each vessel is studded with different luxury amenities. These amenities go far beyond comfort. We’re talking helicopter pads, swimming pools, full-service bars, underwater observatories and even tennis courts. The Superyacht Cup Palma is for owners, captains, crews, and brings vessels with unimaginable technology and design to the same dock.
Here’s everything you need to know to elevate your Palma experience.
The City and the Event:
Once you land in Palma, it’s a quick 10 minutes to the Real Club Nautico, the host of the competition. The venue is situated within walking distance of Palma’s old town, hotel and shops.
This Mediterranean city is the cultural epicenter and capital of Mallorca. The vibrant, medieval streets are lined with galleries, top-of-the-line restaurants and markets, all with the charm of a bohemian Balearic island. You’ll wander for hours and find hidden gems at every turn.
Expect to live like kings. Afterall, the venue itself is home to some prestigious regattas such as the King’s Cup and the Princess Sofia Trophy, in which many members of the Spanish Royal Family frequently participate.
Where to stay:
This urban, boutique hotel encompasses all that is luxury. Located above the Baluard del Príncep, the five star property has a perfect view of the glittering sea. Es Princep’s philosophy is to provide guests with a comfortable, unique experience with attention to local flavors. Within the hotel, there is a spa, swimming pool, gourmet restaurant and seaview rooftop bar.
Where to eat:
A Mediterranean fine-dining experience is a must in Palma. The food scene is sparkling with modern and authentic flavors that reflect the diversity within the city itself.
Restaurant Marc Fosh is Palma’s premier dining destination. The Michelin Star fine-dining experience ensures that guests leave feeling inspired. The menus highlight locally sourced ingredients, with an emphasis on clean flavors and innovation.
Expect elevated taste, locally sourced produce and an unforgettable time.
What to see:
Whether it’s golden beaches or the cobbled streets of Palma’s Old Town, there is no shortage of places to see.
Museums…
Castell de Bellver, built in the 14th-century and one of the world’s only circular castles, sits atop of a forested hill and is one of the city’s top attractions. After a pleasant, winding walk, you’ll find yourself at the foot of the fortress-turned-museum.
Architecture…
Palma’s Old Town provides the ultimate glimpse into the history of Mallorcan life. As you wander the cobbled streets, you can explore ancient doorways, Gothic churches and scenic squares. The relaxed atmosphere makes it easy to lose track of time while ambling around.
If it’s about time for a break, stop in for a traditional Spanish lunch at Cafe Ca’n Toni.
Beaches…
Palma beaches are a no-brainer.
Golden sand, warm, crystal-clear water and spectacular views guaranteed.
Take advantage of all that the Balearic island has to offer, and if you happen to find yourself among superyachts, you’ll need Provocativo to get the super-sized party started!
