Forming the Pityusic Islands with Ibiza, Formentera is also easily reachable from the other Balearic islands. We recommend all our charter guests to take some time to discover the beauty of this islandโ€™s landscapes, inlets and crystal clear waters.

F.A.Q.

The crossing takes roughly 30โ€“60 minutes depending on the vessel and conditions, making Formentera an easy day trip or overnight addition to an Ibiza-based charter. Many guests anchor near Espalmador or Ses Illetes for lunch before returning to Ibiza by late afternoon.

Juan y Andrea on Ses Illetes is the island’s classic, known for fresh fish served just steps from the sand. Beso Beach and the cluster of restaurants at Es Pujols also welcome boat arrivals and suit an unhurried lunch away from Ibiza’s crowds.

The island rewards slow exploration: the lighthouse and viewpoints at La Mola, the salt flats near Es Pujols, and a small ethnography museum offer a glimpse of traditional island life. Formentera is best treated as a half-day or full-day escape rather than a destination needing a packed itinerary.

Yes. With no large hotels, casinos or major nightlife, Formentera attracts guests seeking discretion and a slower pace, a deliberate contrast to Ibiza. The calm, shallow waters of bays like Ses Illetes also suit families with children particularly well.

Formentera has no deep-water marina suited to superyachts, La Savina handles smaller vessels only. Most charters anchor off Ses Illetes or Espalmador and reach the island by tender, which is part of the appeal: fewer crowds and a more private pace than neighbouring Ibiza.
