Timetable and season of the Valencia to Palma ferry

Sailing times on the Valencia to Palma route depend on the shipping line and the month - as a rule daily, up to 5 sailings a day in summer. Morning departures are generally 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 of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals).

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.

Departure: Port of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals)

The ferry from Valencia to Palma leaves from Port of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals), in Valencia - Valencia is the home of paella, the City of Arts and Sciences and a beach on the edge of the old town. Foot passengers should be at the port 45 to 60 minutes before departure; vehicles normally 60 to 90 minutes, earlier on international crossings where passports are checked. Getting there: Metrovalencia lines 3 and 5 link the airport with the centre in about 25 minutes and suit a central hotel with light luggage; a private car is simpler for the beach hotels, the Albufera, a family with luggage, or a coastal trip to Cullera, Denia or Benidorm.

• Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your accommodation in Valencia to the port on request
• Just ask which gate or terminal your sailing uses - big ports have several
• Foot passengers: at the port 45-60 minutes before departure; vehicles 60-90 minutes
• Keep the e-ticket and the ID or passport used for booking together

Arrival: Palma de Mallorca port (Estació Marítima)

You step off at Palma de Mallorca port (Estació Marítima). Taxis and buses meet the boats. If you would rather not think about it, we book a driver to meet the ferry and take you to the door of your hotel.

Onward journeys from Palma - another ferry, a flight or a train the same day - can be added to the booking; tell us and we time the crossing to fit.

On board the Valencia to Palma ferry: seats, cabins, cars and luggage

The ship makes the difference on this route: the conventional ferry has more space, open decks and a steadier ride; the high-speed boat has airline seating and gets you there faster. Both types on this route carry vehicles on some sailings; we tell you which. Children have their own fares, luggage travels free within limits, and pets are accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels.

• Pets accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels - let us know if one is travelling
• Seats: economy, airline-style, lounge and business on the fast boats; deck seats on the slow ferries
• Cabins with beds and showers on overnight sailings - two to four berths
• Café, bar or restaurant on most vessels; open decks on the conventional ferries

Things to do in Palma after the ferry

Palma is the capital of Mallorca, with the Gothic cathedral on the bay, the old town and the Tramuntana mountains an hour away. Start with Cap de Formentor, the Cathedral (La Seu) and the old town and the Arab baths, then the Sóller train.

We offer tours and transfers in Palma as well as the ferry ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.

How much does the ferry from Valencia to Palma cost?

"How much is the ferry ticket from Valencia to Palma?" 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.

Ask us for two or three sailings and we send the cost of each - fast boat and slow boat, morning and afternoon - so you can see the difference before you book the Valencia to Palma ferry.
