Alcudia: 2-hour Speedboat Sightseeing Adventure with Snorkel
Book on Viator →Operated by JetFun · Bookable on Viator
Two hours is the perfect dose of speed. This Alcúdia, Mallorca tour pairs fast boat time with real swimming and snorkeling stops along the coast. You’ll also get a look at Alcúdia Port, plus passes and short stops around S’Aucanada and Coll Baix.
I like the straightforward plan: you get one real water break at Cala en Gossalba, with snorkel gear and free drinks included. I also like the small-group feel, since the trip caps at 12 travelers, so it doesn’t turn into a crowded bus-to-the-beach situation.
One thing to think about: the stops are short, especially the Coll Baix beach/cave stop, so this isn’t a slow, guided nature walk. And the boat experience is built for adrenaline and movement, so if you’re sensitive to speed or rougher water, you’ll want to consider that.

Key points before you go
- 2 hours, coast-hopping pace: enough time for views and a swim, not enough time to feel rushed all day.
- Snorkel + drinks at Cala en Gossalba: the best part is practical and included.
- Coll Baix quick photo stop: a fast glance at the beach area and a cave look inside.
- Max 12 people: smaller group, easier movement onboard.
- Music on the water: the ride is part sightseeing, part fun ride.
- Good-weather dependent: expect rescheduling or a refund if conditions don’t cooperate.
Fast fun from Port d’Alcúdia: what the ride feels like

This is a speedboat tour built for energy. From the Port Turistic i Esportiu Alcudiamar at Passeig Marítim 1 (zona A, local 1), you’re out on the water quickly and you stay in that high-view, open-air mode. The total time on the water is about 2 hours, so it’s a good pick if you want the highlights without burning a whole day.
You’ll be with JetFun, and the trip is capped at a maximum of 12 travelers. That matters more than you’d think on a boat: fewer bodies means easier positioning for photos, less shoving when you want a quick angle, and a more relaxed feel when the skipper turns the boat.
Another small detail that helps: it’s near public transportation. So if you’re staying in Alcúdia town (or heading there for other activities), you’re not stuck with a long transfer just to start the tour.
Finally, the mobile ticket system is meant to keep things smooth at check-in. You won’t be juggling paper vouchers while you’re trying to manage sunscreen, towels, and a swim plan.

Your itinerary in plain language: what happens and why

The route is short and punchy, with a “pass-by” stretch and two main stop moments: one quick look at Coll Baix and one longer swim/snorkel stop at Cala en Gossalba.
Expect the boat to do more “viewing at speed” than “wandering on land.” That’s why the total time stays around 2 hours. If you like coastline views from the water (and you want action), this schedule fits. If you want long walking time, this one may feel too brief.
Here’s the flow you can plan around:
Aucadana Beach slow pass by (getting oriented from the water)
Right after departure, you’ll do a slow pass by Aucadana Beach. This kind of “slow pass” is smart on a speedboat itinerary. It gives you a moment to settle in, grab a few first photos, and start reading the coastline without the full adrenaline pace yet.
For you, this is a practical breather. Boats can feel busy at the start, with everyone checking posture, grabbing water, and figuring out where to stand. A slow pass helps the group get used to the motion.
Platja Des Coll Baix: a 2-minute beach-and-cave look
Next comes Platja Des Coll Baix. The stop is brief—about 2 minutes—so treat it as a quick sightseeing pause, not a full exploration. The point is to see the Coll Baix area (including the beach area) and get a look at a cave inside.
Because the time is short, you’ll get the best value if you plan your priorities:
- If your goal is photos and a quick peek, 2 minutes can be plenty.
- If you want to linger, climb down, and roam around, you may wish the stop ran longer.
One note for expectation-setting: the vibe on this kind of stop is mostly photo-and-go. If you’re the type who loves narration and place details at each stop, you might find you’re doing more self-discovery here.
Cala en Gossalba: the real swim stop with snorkel and drinks
The best timing is at Cala en Gossalba, where you get about 35 minutes in the water. This is the one stop designed for the “try it now” experience: drinks are included, and snorkel is included too.
This is where you can actually slow down and enjoy Mallorca’s coves in a hands-on way. Cala en Gossalba is described as an all-natural cove, and that’s the point: the coastline here feels like a natural setting rather than a built-up beach scene.
For snorkeling, your best results come from simple tactics:
- Put the snorkel on right away so you’re not wasting precious minutes.
- Choose calm moments and aim for clear water near the edges of the cove.
- Keep an eye on your spot so you’re not drifting farther than you want.
And yes, you’ll have free drinks during this stop. That helps a lot because a swim plus sun can sneak up fast. It also turns this from a “look, but don’t enjoy” boat trip into an actual break.
What you get for $67.99: real value check
At $67.99 per person for about two hours, this is priced like a fun, included-gear water activity, not a basic boat ride. The value comes from what’s wrapped into the experience:
- Snorkel included at the swim stop
- Free drinks included
- A speedboat route with multiple coastal viewpoints and a cave/bay stop
If you’ve ever paid for snorkel rentals separately and then added the cost of drinks or water time, you know how quickly the math gets messy. Here, you avoid that extra “add-ons” feeling.
You’re also getting a smaller-group cap of 12 travelers. On many tours, the “nice boat” part is only as nice as the crowd level. This one is set up to stay manageable.
One more value angle: this itinerary is built to keep you on the water doing things. There’s no long, empty waiting time. That’s a hidden win in short tours.
Safety and comfort: the stuff that actually matters on a speedboat
Speedboats are fun, but comfort isn’t guaranteed. The good news: the operation is described as safety first, and the crew is also noted for being kind. That combo matters, because it usually means they care about basics like seating, stable boarding, and making sure you know how to behave onboard.
Also, you may find you can stand up during parts of the ride. That’s a big part of the appeal for people who like that “on the water” feeling rather than sitting and staring like you’re on a ferry. But standing on a moving boat also means you’ll want to hold on and keep your balance.
Who this tends to suit:
- Adults who enjoy movement and short action bursts
- People who want a boat experience with a clear payoff (snorkel and swim)
Who should think twice:
- Anyone who gets motion sick
- Very young kids or people who have trouble with speed/transfer on and off boats
The “music and adrenaline” factor: fun, but manage your expectations
The tour has music on board, and that adds to the experience. It’s the kind of atmosphere where the ride feels like a mix of sightseeing and a party-leaning day on the coast.
For some people, that makes the trip better because the time goes fast. For others, if you want quiet and expert-led commentary, you might feel the narration is light. One consideration: the skipper may not spend lots of time explaining what you’re seeing at each stop. So go into it with a mindset of: you’re here for the ride and the water time, not a lecture.
The good part is that you don’t need detailed commentary to enjoy the main moments. You’ll see the coastline, you’ll reach the cove, and you’ll have snorkel time.
Best way to plan your day around this tour

Since it’s about 2 hours total, you can easily build it into a Mallorca day without feeling like you need to schedule your whole vacation around it.
Here’s how I’d plan it if you want the smoothest experience:
- If you’re pairing with lunch, keep the tour earlier in the day so you don’t end up hungry right after a swim.
- Bring swimwear under your clothes so you can change quickly at the main swim stop.
- Expect sun. Even if it’s not blazing hot, boat glare and short exposure times add up.
Also, if the option exists for earlier boarding when you arrive early, it can be a bonus. Boats run on tight schedules, and sometimes being early gives you flexibility.
Is this Alcúdia speedboat for you?
If you want a quick-hit Mallorca experience, this tour fits well. I’d book it if you’re chasing three things:
- Speedboat views from the water
- A real snorkeling/swim break
- Low hassle thanks to included snorkel and drinks
It’s also ideal if you’re traveling with friends and want a small group vibe. A max of 12 travelers makes a difference in how the boat feels.
I’d skip or reconsider if your top priority is long time on land, guided deep explanations at each stop, or a super-quiet setting. The Coll Baix stop is very short, so you’re not going to do a long walk there.
And if you’re traveling with older adults or anyone who doesn’t handle motion well, treat this as an active boat ride. Choose the day based on comfort and conditions.
