Any visit to Majorca is going to be filled with lots to see and do. But of course you want to be sure you don’t miss out on any of the highlights that are an essential part of any trip to the island.

A classic example of this is the Nemo Submarine. Proof positive – if it were needed – that not all must do activities are on dry land, this is an ideal excursion for the whole family to go on. It comes in two parts as well, offering a scenic boat trip to enjoy before you go beneath the waves for the real Nemo experience.

You’ll need to make your way to the south western corner of the island, where the famous (or infamous, if you prefer) location of Magaluf awaits you. This is where the Nemo Submarine trip starts, although you will of course board the boat to reach the submarine to begin with. It takes around twenty minutes to make the boat trip and during this time you will be able to view the coastline of Majorca from the boat itself. Be sure to take your camera – especially when you realise what happens next.

You will transfer from the boat into the submarine and once you’ve done so it’s time to dive below the waves to see what life under the water is like around the island. This is a magnificent chance to spend the best part of an hour exploring the depths, and although you only go down to twenty metres at most, you will be amazed at what you can see.

This really is worth taking the whole family on; kids will find it fascinating but so will the adults because it really can take your breath away. You’ll probably never have been below the waves before, so it gives you an idea of what goes on around you that you would normally never see.

The fish will usually be fed while you are down there too, to ensure you have the best possible chance of seeing them. Are you ready to make the trip yet?
