Getting There & Around

How to Get to Isla del Aire

Reached by private boat from Menorca (harbours such as Mahón/Maó). There are no regular public ferries; landings are informal and subject to local conservation rules and sea conditions.

Tips for Visiting Isla del Aire

  • The island is off-limits to casual landings in many seasons due to nesting seabirds - check local regulations before attempting to land.
  • Access from Menorca or Mallorca requires a private boat; plan for a full-day trip and a cautious approach because currents can be strong.
  • Bring sunscreen and a hat; the Balearic sun is harsh and shade is limited on the islet.
