Choose the ports first
In Mallorca, Alcúdia is in the north and Palma in the south-west. In Menorca, Ciutadella is in the west and Mahón (Maó) in the east. Do not compare only the sea crossing: your journey to the departure port, onward destination and possible need for vehicle space are all part of the same decision.
Alcúdia-Ciutadella
The Alcúdia-Ciutadella port-pair page is the right starting point for northern Mallorca and western Menorca. It explains the terminal, operator-specific check-in and arrival at Son Blanc. Baleària and Menorca Lines serve the route, with Corsica Ferries operating seasonally; the relevant information is the specific departure on your travel date.
Palma-Mahón
Palma-Mahón may suit you if your journey starts in Palma or your destination is in eastern Menorca. Check the service, itinerary, operator and onboard accommodation for your date. A general frequency or crossing time would not reliably describe your specific journey.
Travelling with a vehicle or pet
A passenger place does not confirm availability for a car or motorhome. Search with the correct vehicle category and its full length and height. Pet booking and accommodation options differ by operator and vessel.
Check a day trip properly
Open both directions in the timetable for the same date. Only once both sailings are bookable can you combine check-in, the crossing, the transfer from Son Blanc or Mahón and the buffer before your return into a realistic amount of usable time. One early outbound sailing is not enough to make that decision.
Mallorca - Menorca FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Answers to help you choose ports and routes between Mallorca and Menorca.
Which port in Mallorca has ferries to Menorca? +
Ferries leave from Alcúdia in the north and from Palma. The timetable shows which port pairs are actually bookable on your date.
Should I choose Ciutadella or Mahón? +
Ciutadella is in western Menorca and Mahón in the east. Choose according to your accommodation and onward journey. Ferries to Ciutadella arrive at Son Blanc commercial port, not the old harbour.
How long is the Mallorca-Menorca ferry crossing? +
It depends on the port pair, vessel and itinerary. Compare the crossing time shown for the specific timetable entry; there is no single reliable estimate for the island pair.
Can I take a day trip from Mallorca to Menorca? +
Only if suitable outbound and return sailings are bookable on the same date. Deduct both check-in periods, the journey from the ferry port and a time buffer before assessing how long you will actually have in Menorca.
Can I take a car, motorhome or pet? +
Availability depends on the departure, vessel and capacity. Enter your vehicle dimensions or add your pet when searching, and only compare the options then offered.
