Discover the Charm of Mallorcan Llaut
Step aboard Sol, a traditional Mallorcan llaut, and experience the essence of the Mediterranean. Llauts, crafted entirely of wood, have been central to Mallorca’s maritime heritage for centuries. Sol, built in 1973 by master shipbuilder Jaume Cifre in Portocolom and recently restored in 2023, exemplifies this timeless craftsmanship.
Llauts are known for their smooth and gentle navigation, offering a serene ride that modern fiberglass boats can’t match. Originally used for fishing, llauts became popular recreational boats after motors were introduced in the 1950s. However, the preservation of these vessels has become challenging due to high maintenance costs and a dwindling number of skilled craftsmen.
Sol offers exceptional comfort, a spacious deck, ample shade, and a 360-degree panoramic view. Renting Sol provides a unique way to explore the coast, accessing secluded beaches and coves with ease. It connects you with Mallorcan culture, offering an unforgettable experience that stands apart from commercial motorized boats.
