What you should know about the crossing

Table of Contents

Getting there & the terminal

The Estación Marítima is on Moll de la Pansa, right by the town. By car, follow the Plaza Benidorm roundabout next to Paseo del Raset onto the harbour causeway; from there it's about a kilometre and a half out over the water to the terminal.

Without a car, it's a 15 to 20-minute walk from the centre. More convenient is the free solar-powered boat La Panseta, which Baleària runs for its passengers between the town centre and the terminal.

Check-in & departure

  • Baleària: at least 90 minutes with a vehicle, or 60 minutes on foot, before departure. Latecomers aren't taken on board.

Have a valid photo ID ready. If you're travelling with a vehicle, factor in the drive along the causeway - it takes a few extra minutes before departure.

Vehicles, bikes & pets

Cars, motorhomes and motorbikes can travel on this route; the longer check-in deadlines above apply to vehicles. The car deck is closed off during the crossing, so take anything you'll need with you.

For dimensions, towing and onboard power, see our motorhome ferry guide; the rules for dogs and cats are in our guide to travelling with a dog on the ferry.

Arrival & onward travel

In Palma, ferries dock at the Estación Marítima, right opposite the old town. From the terminal you can walk straight into the city; car hire desks and bus connections are at the port.

Tickets & fares

Book through the booking window above; the price shown updates live from the operator's data.

With a crossing of around five hours, a seat is usually enough. Since only one operator sails this route, there's no comparison to make here - but the timetable is reliably daily.
