Palma to Menorca Ferry: Mahón with Trasmed or Alcudia–Ciutadella
With Balearia · 6 to 9 daily departures · 1:15 hours - 2:30 hours
To get from Palma to Menorca by ferry there is one direct ferry: Palma–Mahón, with Trasmed, which leaves the port of Palma and arrives at the port of Mahón. It has very few departures, so it is worth checking first whether your date has a sailing.
There is no direct ferry from Palma to Ciutadella. To reach Ciutadella you have to go first to Alcudia, about 55 km from Palma, and cross with Baleà ria or Menorca Lines.
Residents of the Balearic Islands get a 75% discount on the passenger fare, not on the car. You can travel on foot, with a car or with a dog.
Palma to Menorca ferry timetable
Below you can see the departures for the date you choose. Choosing the route comes first:
- Palma–Mahón: very few departures, so the trip is fitted to the ferry. You leave directly from Palma and arrive in Mahón, in the east of Menorca.
- Alcudia–Ciutadella: several departures a day, by fast ferry. It means getting to Alcudia first by road and leaves you in the west of the island.
In summer there are more departures. If you are travelling on high-demand dates, book in advance.
Indicative schedules and subject to variation by the ferry company for operational reasons without prior notice.

The price shown above is the lowest recent fare. To compare properly, add the transfer: Palma–Mahón leaves from Palma; Alcudia–Ciutadella means first getting to Alcudia by car, taxi or bus. The car is paid separately on both routes, and the resident discount does not apply to it. In summer and during Menorca's festivals, prices go up sooner.
