Ibiza calling! Craving crystal-clear waters, hidden coves, and epic sunsets? Ditch the crowds and explore Ibiza's magic with a private charter adventure. This guide unveils the coolest boat routes for an unforgettable trip.
Choosing the duration and the charter
Day trips are perfect for exploring nearby coves and beaches. The range is between 3.5 and 7 hours. If you choose 7 hours, you are also able to include a longer stop in one of the beach clubs for lunch. Multi-day charters allow you to venture further and discover neighboring islands like Formentera.
When choosing the type of charter, it is important to consider couple factors: how many people are in your group and what experience you wish:
Sports yachts: These sleek vessels offer better speeds, allowing you to explore the island's stunning coastline and hidden coves in style. Enjoy the thrill of the ride and the comfort of amenities like sun decks or have fun with snorkelling equipment, making your Ibiza adventure truly unforgettable. Max 9 people.
Catamarans: Catamarans offer unparalleled stability, ideal for bigger groups or families with children for comfortable and relaxing day at sea. Enjoy sunbathing on the spacious decks or trampolines, swimming in crystal-clear waters and snorkelling. Max 11 people.
For bigger groups, you may hire two boats to sail in tandem!

Cala Bassa
As your private charter cuts through the turquoise waters, keep an eye out for Cala Bassa. This horseshoe-shaped gem will come into view, a beach paradise framed by lush greenery and dramatic cliffs. Dive in for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear shallows, or explore the underwater world with a spot of snorkeling. Soak up the relaxed vibes on the soft, golden sand, a perfect contrast to the cool sea. When your appetite kicks in, we can dock and grab lunch or drinks at the famous Cala Bassa Beach Club, all with that incredible beach view (during full day trip).
Cala Comte
Next on - Cala Comte. This idyllic cove boasts two personalities: a family-friendly stretch with gentle waves lapping the soft sand, and a more secluded area with rocky outcrops for adventurous explorers. Dive into the crystal-clear turquoise water for a refreshing swim, or grab your snorkel and discover the vibrant marine life below the surface. Relax on the pristine sand and soak in the breathtaking views of the nearby islands, Illa des Bosc and Sa Conillera. When it's time for a break, we can pull up anchor and enjoy a delicious lunch with a view – the perfect way to experience the magic of Cala Comte.
Cala Tarida
As we cruise along Ibiza's stunning coastline, keep your eyes peeled for Cala Tarida. Unlike the secluded coves we might have passed, Cala Tarida unfolds into a vast stretch of pure white sand. Picture a long beach paradise, sheltered by rolling hills and bathed in sunshine all day. Here, the water transitions gently from shallow turquoise shallows to deeper areas, perfect for swimming or just wading in for a cool-down. Want a taste of the local scene? We can dock near the beach and explore the shops and restaurants lining the shore. Cala Tarida offers something for everyone, and from the comfort of our private boat, you can decide how you want to experience it.
Es Vedra
As we cruise further along Ibiza's stunning coastline, the mythical island of Es Vedrà will rise majestically from the sea. This awe-inspiring, almost 400-meter tall rock is shrouded in legends and local lore. Keep your camera ready – the sight of Es Vedrà bathed in sunlight is truly unforgettable. We can't dock on the island itself, but we can get close enough to appreciate its beauty and feel the energy that this mystical place is said to radiate.
Cafe Mambo
Cruise past the bustling bars and restaurants of San Antonio Bay, the energy thrumming as you leave it behind. Our next stop? A total vibe shift. As we round the corner, keep an eye out for the iconic silhouette of Café Mambo. This legendary spot offers the perfect opportunity to soak up the atmosphere of Ibiza's sunset strip. Dock up for a bit and grab a drink at Café Mambo, where you might even catch a glimpse of a world-famous DJ spinning tunes. Watch the sky transform into a kaleidoscope of colors as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the scene with an unforgettable magic.
