A one week catamaran holiday from Ibiza Town along the south and west coast of Ibiza, with the rock of Es Vedrà and the white sands of Formentera and Ses Illetes.
This one week cruise starts from Ibiza Town and links the south and west coast of Ibiza with the island of Formentera, in a looping itinerary that follows some of the clearest water of the Balearic Islands. The route passes the bays of Talamanca and Jondal, the rock of Es Vedrà and the white beaches of Ses Illetes.
Distances are short to medium, usually between ten and twenty nautical miles a day, with the crossing to Formentera as the longest open water passage. The rhythm leaves time to swim, snorkel and linger at anchor, and the shallow sandy bays are ideal for a catamaran.
The scenery is a mix of pine covered cliffs, hidden coves and the pale sands of Formentera, with water in every shade of turquoise. Anchorages are generally sheltered in typical summer conditions, and the sunsets facing Es Vedrà are unforgettable.
Ashore, the route offers the old town of Ibiza with its fortified walls, the quiet villages of Formentera and beach restaurants serving fresh fish and local specialities. The marina is a short walk from the heart of the old town.
On board the day follows an easy rhythm: breakfast on deck, a short morning sail, a swim before lunch and a quiet evening under the stars. It is a holiday for friends or family who enjoy being the crew of their own boat while keeping the schedule simple.
Itinerary
Day1
Boarding in Ibiza Town and Talamanca Bay
Boarding takes place in the late afternoon at the marina of Ibiza Town, below the walls of Dalt Vila. After settling into the cabins and a safety briefing, the catamaran sails the short distance to Talamanca Bay, a wide sheltered bay with sandy bottom, for a first dinner on board.
Day2
Talamanca to Cala Jondal
The coast south of Ibiza Town is a succession of sandy beaches and low cliffs. The boat anchors at Cala Jondal, a pebble and sand cove with clear water and a lively beach club atmosphere, with time to swim, snorkel and relax at anchor.
Day3
Cala d’Hort and Es Vedrà
The route follows the southwest coast to Cala d’Hort, a bay facing the rock of Es Vedrà, one of the most iconic sights of Ibiza. The sunset over the island and its sister islet, Es Vedranell, is among the great moments of the week.
Day4
Crossing to Formentera and Cala Saona
The crossing to Formentera takes the boat across the open channel between the two islands, with views of the cliffs of the south of Ibiza behind. The boat anchors at Cala Saona, a sandy bay on the west coast of Formentera with calm water and a quiet, natural setting.
Day5
Ses Illetes and Espalmador
A short sail north leads to the shallow turquoise water of Ses Illetes, the long white beach at the tip of Formentera, and to the island of Espalmador just beyond. The seabed is sandy and the water is remarkably clear, making it a perfect day for swimming and walking on the sand.
Day6
Formentera to Cala Vadella
The boat recrosses the channel and sails along the west coast of Ibiza to Cala Vadella, a sheltered bay of fine sand surrounded by pines. The last full evening is spent at anchor with a dinner on board.
Day7
Back to Ibiza Town and Disembarkation
The final sail follows the south coast of Ibiza back to the marina of Ibiza Town, arriving on Sunday afternoon. The last night is spent on board, with time to explore the old town and its harbour, and disembarkation takes place on Monday morning.
Important Note This itinerary may vary depending on weather conditions, sea state and operational requirements. The person in charge of the boat may adjust the route, anchorages and overnight stops, following the briefing at the base, to ensure safety and comfort.

What to pack for a sailing holiday?
Pack smart for your yacht charter: choose a soft bag instead of a hard suitcase, bring lightweight layers, reef-safe sunscreen, and non-slip shoes for onboard use. A couple of swimsuits and motion sickness remedies can also make a big difference. Each boat has limited storage, so pack light, but wisely! Need help building the perfect list?

What Happens in Case of Bad Weather During a Sailing Holiday?

These moments often lead to unexpected gems: local towns to explore, time to relax on board, or cozy dinners ashore. Curious about how crews handle these changes?
