Best time to take the ferry from Palma to Menorca

For the ferry itself, late spring and early autumn bring calm seas, full timetables and reasonable fares; July and August are the busiest and the most expensive, and the windiest weeks can cancel the fast boats. Winter schedules are thinner on many crossings, so we look up before you plan.

Ferry or flight from Palma to Menorca?

For most travellers on this route the ferry is the better way: it leaves from the port in Palma and lands you in Menorca itself, carries as much luggage as you can wheel and the car, and turns the journey into part of the holiday. A flight only wins when the crossing is long and time is short. Haqqi Tours can provide flights too, and says honestly which is better for your dates.

Return ferry from Menorca to Palma

The Menorca to Palma ferry is the same crossing in reverse, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Haqqi Tours arranges the return ticket in the same conversation; if the return date is not fixed, an open return on the same operator keeps it flexible.

How much does the ferry from Palma to Menorca cost?

"How much is the ferry ticket from Palma to Menorca?" has several answers, because the operators price the slow boat and the fast boat differently, charge separately for vehicles and cabins, and raise fares in high season. Haqqi Tours offers the current cost for your travel date and party - foot passengers, car, seats or cabin - in a few minutes of receiving the form, and tells you which sailing is the best value.

What we include in the price we send: the ticket for each passenger, the vehicle if you bring one, any reserved seat or cabin you asked for, port taxes, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the e-ticket and answering questions before and during the crossing.

Cheapest ferry ticket from Palma to Menorca: how to pay less

Getting the lowest fare on the ferry from Palma to Menorca is a matter of vessel, timing and flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds you a cheap ferry ticket:

• Price the crossing with and without the car - for two people a rental at the other end is sometimes cheaper
• Book the return with the outbound - open returns and round-trip fares are cheaper on many operators
• Ask about children's, student and resident fares, and about vehicle offers outside high season
• Choose the conventional ferry over the high-speed boat when time allows - it is cheaper, steadier and frequently more scenic
• Book early for July, August, Easter and holiday weekends, when sailings sell out and fares rise
• Travel on a weekday - Friday and Sunday sailings carry the highest fares

We answer "what is the cheapest way to get from Palma to Menorca by ferry?" many times a day; the answer for your date comes back on WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

Timetable and season of the Palma to Menorca ferry

Sailing times on the Palma to Menorca route depend on the operator and the month - as a rule several a day from Alcúdia; weekly from Palma. Morning departures are usually the calmest and the most reliable; the last sailing of the day is the one to avoid if you have an onward connection. We choose the sailing to fit your plan and tell you the check-in time at Port d'Alcúdia (about 1 hour by road from Palma) or Palma port for the weekly Mahón sailing.

Sea conditions matter on this route: strong winds can delay or cancel high-speed boats while the conventional ferries keep sailing. When the forecast is poor we tell you and, if you prefer, book the steadier vessel.
