Private yacht charter Ibiza to Formentera: Snorkel and swim

Anchor in hidden coves, snorkel the shallows, paddle board between swims

A full-day private yacht charter from Ibiza sails to Formentera with a professional skipper and crew, stopping at Sas Salinas for an opening swim and cava, then anchoring off Formentera for snorkeling and paddle boarding. You choose whether to beach for lunch or stay aboard, and the itinerary adjusts to your group's pace and interests throughout the day.

The experience

The charter departs Marina Port Ibiza in the morning and heads first to Sas Salinas, where you board a luxury yacht and spend the opening hours on deck with a glass of cava, swimming in clear water, and settling into the rhythm of the day. The crew handles all navigation and seamanship. Your job is to decide how long to linger at each stop.

From there, the boat sails to Formentera, where the anchor drops and the water becomes the center of the day. Snorkeling equipment is provided (you slip into the shallows to see what lives below), or try the paddle board if you want to test your balance above the surface. The crew brings towels and keeps drinks and snacks flowing. If your group wants lunch, you can tender ashore to a beachside restaurant. If you'd rather stay put, the yacht becomes your base for swimming and floating between dips.

The route back to Ibiza leaves room for one more stop or another hour of swimming, depending on what the group prefers. A professional skipper speaks English, Spanish, French, Polish or one additional language, so communication is straightforward. Fuel for one hour of sailing is included. Any extra water toys (jet skis, seabobs, flyboards) are available at additional cost.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish, French, Polish and Dutch.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What's the difference between staying on the yacht for lunch versus going ashore to a restaurant?

Formentera has beachside restaurants within a short tender ride, so your group can choose to beach for a meal or stay aboard and eat the snacks and fruits the crew provides. The skipper can advise on options once you're anchored, and the choice is yours based on what suits the day.

Is snorkeling equipment included, or do I need to bring my own?

Snorkeling gear is provided on the charter. The crew sets it up and you use it at Formentera. Towels are also included so you can dry off between swims.

How much sailing experience do I need to book this?

None. A professional skipper and crew handle all sailing and navigation. You're a passenger on a private yacht. Your role is to relax, swim and enjoy the stops.

Can the itinerary change if our group wants to do something different?

Yes. The day is structured around Sas Salinas first, then Formentera, but the skipper adjusts based on your group's preferences: more time at one stop, fewer stops, different swimming spots, or an extra hour of floating instead of moving on.

What's included in the drinks and snacks?

Two bottles of cava, beers, soft drinks, water, snacks and fresh fruit are provided throughout the day. Lunch ashore is not included, though you can choose to eat at a Formentera restaurant at your own cost.
