Palma has a huge harbor with loads of boats, small boats, sight seeing boats, sailing boats, motor yachts ... just name it. This year only the cruise ships are missing - yeah!
Quite a different view towards the city from the harbour.
Were lucky to visit this boat. Just a visit, no sailing, for heavens sake!
Boating gadgets kind of fascinate me. My photographic feel.
This bugger belongs to Luxembourg. At least there is this flag hanging.
Grey metallic ... looks like a Porsche on water.
Again, the views a pretty nice.
Well, of course, the architectural point can be discussed.
This corona year has caused some problems also for the boat people.
Many boat owners are not able to travel to Spain,
or have no possibility to stay in a quarantine after the holidays.
But then, Spanish tourists are now chartering boats,
spending holidays on water with their families and close friends,
it is definitely safer than partying in a big disco hotel.
In between also some cute vessels.
One of those boats which my hubby would consider ...
If you look carefully you can see the Palma Cathedral almost in the middle of the pic.
Last year's project was to participate on one of these Lagoon catamarans.
Well, it definitely is not so spacy ... and the sun deck - where was it?
As you can guess, boating is none of my businesses, comes right after cooking.
Thanks Nic, anyhow, for letting us to see this boat as well!
Yes, there are more traditional corners in Palma harbour as well.
If you really want to see the big money boats you'd better
head for the West: Port Adriano, Portals Nous, Puerto Andtratx.
As bonus you can admire high heeled fashion addicts sipping their champagne.
The 'Paseo Marítimo' or in Catalan, 'Passeig Marítim',
refers to the wonderful promenade that runs parallel to Palma's seafront.
The wide avenue is made up of a pedestrianised walkway and a cycle lane,
and is enjoyed by tourists and locals alike.
PS
We were quite shocked to see old town of Palma so empty.
Hardly any people strolling along the cute lanes,
many, sadly quite many shops closed down.
