Blessed with a great climate and stunning nature, Mallorca is an excellent destination for an active vacation.

Take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints, keep nothing but memories.

Do you care about the environment and want to be more conscious of what you do on the water? Whether you want to catch the early morning glow, or the perfect sunset the island offers so many beautiful environments.Here is a short list of environmentally friendly water activities to spice-up your days in Mallorca.

Stand up paddle (SUP)

If you love a full body workout Paddle boarding or stand-up paddle (SUP) is a healthy activity for your entire body and a lot of fun to do with your friends and family.
Although it may be pretty challenging to master the skill, especially when you are just a beginner, once you have learned, you will realize that paddle boarding not only gets you on your feet but also helps you maintain both your body and mind in great shape.

SUP is a low-impact workout, meaning it can’t do severe damage to your ligaments or tendons. However, it engages your core muscles, abs, arms, legs, back, and shoulders, allowing you to burn many calories. Moreover, the dynamics of standing on a board with an element of instability from the water also engages muscles critical for balance and joint support in a way that no other recreational activity does.
