I find a ghost!
My assessment is bad because the meeting place is not explicit, we lost the trip for that! I still don't realize where I should go today!
via Tripadvisor (translated)
Disappointing
Boat cancelled at scheduled time without notice to us if we had not called the claimant. Forced to wait two hours for the next boat. Photos not conforming, Malgrats Islands not indicated by the guide and cove for swimming not conforming to photos.
via Tripadvisor (translated)
A simple boat ride
I thought I would go for a glass-bottomed walk as indicated in the title of the excursion. But it is more a simple boat ride with a stop pr go to see qq fish from the glass hold of the boat. Also I didn't know that booking via TripAdvisor required a currency exchange fee (UK site so commission)
via Tripadvisor (translated)
Ok experience
A bit lengthy a cruise, not many fish species can be seen (in April). One of the crew wasn't very kind. Great view of the coast, though.
via Tripadvisor
Great ride, a partially unfriendly tour guide
The ride was great, only the beginning where we had a demand and rather unfriendly response was not so nice. For families with children (we had two children aged 6 and 9 with) an absolute recommendation. There are paid meals on board and the catamaran is mostly covered. The glass bottom is housed in the two side parts of the catamaran.

Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mallorca.
How much does Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands cost?
+
Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mallorca usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mallorca is not rushed.
Is Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (2.6/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mallorca, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mallorca can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mallorca and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Glass-bottom Boat trip to the Malgrats Islands start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mallorca within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mallorca?
+
On Outty we rank every Mallorca experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mallorca Full Day Tour Valldemossa Deià and Sóller Experience, Cala des Moro, S’Almunia & Best Coves, SUP & Snorkel by Van, Luxury Catamaran sailing with welcome Drinks Tapas Max10-12Person. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mallorca?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mallorca?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
