Equipment Rental

Because it has it all! Mallorca, with it´s extensive network of ferries and international flights is your gateway to the Mediterranean and beyond.

Only two hours flight from most European cities you’ll find an extraordinary diversity of locations. Be it beaches, mountains, blue waters, city streets, villages, mansions or sprawling villas, you really can take your pick in the Balearics. And no shoot is beyond us, no matter how big or small.

The Weather

There is a reason why the Balearics have been such a popular holiday spot for many years. Its gorgeous temperate maritime climate has an average year-round temperature of 21 degrees C, and the sun shines for 300 days out of 365!

So, during the winter months you can take advantage of those cheap hotels and flights and still enjoy great shooting conditions.

And for all you party people there’s hundreds of different bars and clubs on the seafront.
