Boat Trips from Ibiza to Formentera

If you’re in Ibiza, you’ve got the paradise island of Formentera just half an hour away by ferry. That’s the perfect excuse to get to know the island of Formentera, one of the gems of the Mediterranean Sea.

As the smallest of the Pitiusa islands, it doesn’t have an airport, so it’s only accessible by boat. Numerous ferry companies link Ibiza to Formentera, however it’s also possible to go by private boat, or visit the neighboring island on the hotel yacht. If you go by ferry, once you’ve arrived at the port of Savina, you can rent a car, a motorbike or a bicycle to visit some of the most charming spots.

We’ve recommended a few things that you cannot miss during your day trip to Formentera from Ibiza:

 

Enjoy a beach day at a cove with crystal clear waters

 

Don’t forget to pack your snorkeling mask for your Formentera excursion, so you can explore the spectacular sea floor hidden beneath the crystal clear waters surrounding the island. The meadows of Neptune grass are to thank for these clear waters, as the plant works as the lung of the Mediterranean, in addition to being the natural habitat for many different species.

 

Eat typical food on the island

 

The island’s gastronomy is very varied, so you can try anything from their simple but tasty farmer’s salad to delicious seafood dishes. Fresh, tasty Mediterranean flavours that you cannot miss if you are going to visit Formentera during your stay in Ibiza.

Go to a beach party

 

At sunset, head down to one of the famous Formentera beach bars and enjoy a refreshing cocktail to the beat of the hottest summer tunes.

Sa Mola or Faro de Cap de Barberia are magical places that will give you goosebumps regardless of the time of day. However, if you visit at sunset, these sensations will be even more intense.

We encourage you to walk or cycle around the island, this way you’ll be able to explore. However, keep in mind that in summer, the temperatures tend to be high, so spring and autumn are the ideal seasons to explore the island’s green trails.

After such a full and beautiful day, what better than to rest in your room at the Aguas de Ibiza hotel?
