2026-08-13: We decided to try to beat the heat by taking a boat trip over to Cabrera Island. Unfortunately, there was nothing to do to escape other than swimming. At sunset we went swimming in a sea cave. Then, on the way back to Mallorca, we encountered a raft of shearwaters. Some of the shearwaters were flying next to the boat. I had a crap seat on the boat, however, so I was not able to get the best photos.
