Stepping aboard at Figueretas Port, the deck hums with low music and the Mediterranean stretches wide—bright, saline, and impatient. The catamaran slips off Ibiza’s coast and the island silhouette thins as the crew sets a relaxed rhythm: anchor at a turquoise cove, a paella pan heats, and inflatable paddleboards bob like invitations.

Stepping aboard at Figueretas Port, the deck hums with low music and the Mediterranean stretches wide—bright, saline, and impatient. The catamaran slips off Ibiza’s coast and the island silhouette thins as the crew sets a relaxed rhythm: anchor at a turquoise cove, a paella pan heats, and inflatable paddleboards bob like invitations.
This crossing follows centuries of local sea traffic between Ibiza and Formentera; sailors once read these same currents to move salt, wine, and fishermen’s boats. Geologically the islands are limestone and ancient seabed uplifted, which explains the compact cliffs at La Mola and the shallow, clear shelves around Ses Illetes. Culturally, Formentera keeps a quieter pace than Ibiza—whitewashed cottages, small seafood restaurants, and salt flats that glitter at low tide.
Expect a day built around water: a long swim stop at Cala Saona with snorkeling and paddleboarding, then a four-hour window on Formentera to rent a scooter or bike and reach Ses Illetes or the Mirador de la Mola. Onboard, an open bar and a live paella show anchor the social side; vegetarian paella is available by request.
Practical guidance: bring reef-safe sunscreen, secure footwear for docks and rocky beaches, and a light wind layer for the return trip when sea breezes strengthen. Hydrate through the day—alcohol and sun combine quickly—and keep valuables dry in a waterproof pouch. The trip is suitable for most fitness levels but involves some ladder climbs into the water and short walks on uneven paths in Formentera. Timing mid-morning departures avoids peak afternoon sun and gives best light for snorkeling.
Yes—basic snorkeling equipment is included, though some guests prefer to bring their own mask or fins for fit and comfort.
No—scooter and bicycle rentals on Formentera are optional and arranged with the crew once you dock; prices vary by season.
Yes—this tour is suitable for non-swimmers, but you should remain on the boat during swim stops and wear a life jacket if entering the water.
An open bar (beer, wine, cava, prosecco, soft drinks) and a cooked paella lunch are provided; bottled water and fruit are also served.
