About this tour
Spend eight hours sailing between Ibiza and Formentera aboard a private vessel, navigating hidden coves and limestone cliffs whilst exploring both islands' coastal character. Your skipper and crew handle navigation and logistics, leaving you free to swim in sheltered bays, paddle out on boards, or simply watch the Mediterranean unfold. The boat carries snorkelling gear and a dinghy for beach access; bring your own provisions to make a full day of it.

- Snorkel in turquoise shallows with provided equipment
- Paddle board from the boat to nearby coves
- Explore Formentera's quieter beaches by tender
- Eight hours with experienced captain and crew

What to expect
You'll depart Ibiza and head out under sail, with the crew managing the boat while you settle in. Stops include snorkelling-friendly spots where visibility is good and the water warm. There's time to paddle board if conditions allow, or simply anchor and swim. The dinghy ferries you ashore to explore Formentera's beaches on foot. The pace is leisurely rather than rushed; expect plenty of downtime between locations. Sea conditions vary seasonally, so some days will be glassier than others, but the crew reads conditions well and adjusts accordingly.
Good to know
Bring lunch, drinks, and snacks—nothing is included. Pack a towel and a rash guard or wetsuit depending on the season. The boat rocks, so avoid heavy meals beforehand if you're prone to seasickness. Water shoes help on rocky entry points. Depart early to maximise daylight; summer sails book quickly.
