Why travel by ferry from Mahon to Barcelona?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Mahon to Barcelona ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Barcelona. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Mahon to Barcelona is an ideal way to travel.

So you don't have to worry about the amount of luggage
With the train, bus or plane, an excess of one free piece of luggage is often applied and each additional piece of luggage generates an additional cost. For the Mahon to Barcelona crossing, as long as all your luggage is contained in your car, no supplement is required. If you are travelling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements throughout the journey to Barcelona. However, many ships provide luggage storage for foot passengers. Check with Trasmed, Acciona Trasmediterránea, Baleària or Grandi Navi Veloci.
Resting in a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Mahon to Barcelona by booking a cabin, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Equipped with berths, private bathrooms and sometimes even portholes or balconies, the cabins are not unlike real hotel rooms. Even on a day crossing, enjoying the privacy of a cabin is still possible and much more comfortable than sitting in a lounge.
Enjoy the fresh sea air
The health benefits of the sea have long been proven. During the Mahon-Barcelona crossing, access the outside areas of the Trasmed, Acciona Trasmediterránea, Baleària or Grandi Navi Veloci ship to take a deep breath of air. The fresh sea air and the waves that rock the ferry will soothe you instantly. You'll arrive in Barcelona feeling perfectly zen and energised.
