From the very beginning, Balearia drew up a plan of action for the expansion and modernization of the fleet, which included the immediate addition of new vessels. Balearia enjoyed the commitment of its personnel in its strive for quality, reflected today in high levels of security, service and customer care.
Initially, Balearia operated the Denia-Ibiza-Palma routes (ferry services), Ibiza-Formentera (ferry services and high-speed vessels), Ibiza-Palma (ferry services) and Denia-Ibiza (ferry and Ro-Ro services). Those routes were completed with the Valencia-Palma route (Ro-Ro cargo traffic), which was inaugurated in June 2000, and the Alcudia-Mahon route operated since July 2002. The inclusion - in June 2001- of Federico Garcia Lorca, a super fast high-speed ferry that operates the Denia-Ibiza-Palma route and also performs direct services Denia-Palma, has meant a complete change in communications both between and within the Balearic Islands.
Balearia is still focused on expansion and growth, and is working on future projects such as the incorporation of new lines and the enlargement of its fleet. In October 2002, Balearia launched the super fast high-speed ferry Ramon Llull, built at the shipyard Rodriquez, which entered operation in June 2003. Furthermore, at the beginning of 2003 Balearia created the Nautas Al-Maghreb ferry company to run a new ferry route between Tangier and Algeciras, operated by a super fast ferry with a crossing duration of less than one hour.
In 2004 the Balearia fleet welcomed two super fast catamarans - Nixe I and Nixe II. The first of which inaugurated the Denia-Ibiza-Formentera route in august 2004.
The quality, frequency, and competitiveness of the services of Balearia over the routes it manages have allowed this shipping company to position itself as a leader in the traffic within the islands - both in terms of passenger volume and sales- and as the absolute leader in the Balearic Islands by passenger volume.
Each vessel has 4 lounges equipped with comfortable seats. All the lounges have a central section with aisles containing comfortable seats naturally lit by skylights.
Balearia wishes to make its journeys as pleasant as possible and provides you with a wide range of entertainment on all vessels so that your journey across the Mediterranean is a pleasurable one.
