A sample week out of Mallorca — one night at sea, then all the way round Menorca, at sailor's pace.

Seven days out of Cala d'Or: two night crossings between the islands and a lap of Menorca by the east — the white coves of the south, the cave-cathedral at Binigaus, the tombs of Cala Coves, caldereta at Fornells, the red sand of Pregonda, the arch of Pont d'en Gil, an evening in old Ciutadella. The wind decides which way round, and you decide the week.
