Laying up - Balearics

[mikenixon]

I will be moving east into the Med from Portugal next Spring and am seeking advice on places to lay up ashore in the Balearics for July and August.
Any knowledge?

We left our boat on the hard in Puerto de Bonaire in Pollensa Bay on Mallorca for five weeks during July and August 1999 whilst we returned to the UK. Prior to leaving her we hired a car for a couple of days and visited almost every marina and harbour on the island. Puerto de Bonaire was the cheapest being less than half the price of some of the marinas on the south and east coasts. We paid £322 for lift-out, storage on land for five weeks and lift-back, i.e. £9.20 per day. This is considerably less than we would have had to pay had we left her in the water, as mooring charges during July and August are very high.
