Formentera Day Trip from Ibiza: Catamaran Snorkeling

A full catamaran with 2–3 couples instead of a crowd

A shared catamaran day trip from Ibiza to Formentera carries small groups of 2–3 couples on a seven-hour outing with snorkel gear, stand-up paddle boards, and access to nets and bow seating. The skipper speaks English and Spanish. All fees, fuel and insurance are included, along with a cooler to keep drinks cold and a Bluetooth speaker for music.

Step-by-step itinerary

Visit Formentera's best beach

• Depart from Ibiza by catamaran
• Visit top-rated beach in Spain
• Enjoy beach time for two hours

The experience

The boat leaves with only 2 or 3 couples aboard: small enough that you get the comfort and stops of a private charter without the full price tag. You'll spend the day anchored at what's considered Spain's best beach, with snorkel equipment and a stand-up paddle board ready to use. Nets strung across the bow and pulpits at the front give you the best views and the easiest place to lie down between swims.

Seven hours on the water means real time to explore rather than a rushed stop. The skipper speaks English and Spanish, so the commentary flows naturally. A large cooler keeps your drinks cold, and a Bluetooth speaker lets you play your own music. All fees, fuel and insurance are built into the price. Nothing hidden at the end of the day.

Bring a valid photo ID or passport. Public transport runs near the departure point if you need it. Specialized infant seats are available if you're traveling with a baby.
