Grand Sailboat Cruise through Ibiza and Formentera from Valencia

“Enjoy your holidays on an EXCLUSIVE SAILBOAT”

Big Sailboat Cruise around IBIZA AND FORMENTERA

Do you want to enjoy a vacation on a big sailboat?

We will share the unique experience of sailing and anchoring in the most beautiful and spectacular coves of Ibiza and Formentera, on a boat with superior characteristics, more than 15m long and almost 5m wide. An exclusive sailboat for only 5 to 7 people who want to enjoy their holidays with maximum space, comfort and safety on board.

Coves with crystal clear waters, white sand beaches, conversations under the stars, incredible sunsets, laughter, fun, relaxation and much more you will find on this spectacular cruise to Ibiza and Formentera.

Every day we will contemplate the sunset in a different cove, where we can go down to the beach, walk or drink, and get back on board to let ourselves be carried away by the magical movement of the stars, under the light of the moon. In addition, if you feel like it, we can moor in the charming port of Santa Eulalia or in the lively port of Ibiza to stroll, dine in one of its restaurants and enjoy its nightlife.

Each sunrise will offer us a unique moment to enjoy a bath, swim or simply relax before breakfast. And after setting up the sailboat to the sound of the sea, we will sail between coves and beaches on short trips discovering beautiful landscapes, contemplating nature from its imposing bow, sunbathing and relaxing in any of its 2 large solariums, cooling off or diving in its clean waters, or simply walking on the beach or doing paddle surfing. And if you feel like it, we can also take an excursion to explore the interior of the islands, walking or renting bikes or motorcycles.

In short, we will be inspired and uplifted by the sailor's life, sharing basic tasks and responsibilities, the management of the sailboat, the trimming of its sails, the art of anchoring and the pleasure of enjoying nature with other people, all of which will undoubtedly make this trip an unforgettable experience.

Plan

SATURDAY: BOARDING AND SAILING UNDER THE STARS

The adventure begins

We will embark at the right time and place to start our journey around 10:30pm to Ibiza. The sailboat will already be perfectly stowed and ready to sail, so after settling in we will review the itinerary and the planned program as well as the basic tasks and rules of coexistence and safety on board.

Then we will enjoy together what will be our first night sailing under the stars, to arrive throughout the morning at Playas del Comte (North), one of the most beautiful and special places in Ibiza for us. With any luck, we will be greeted by our friends the dolphins.

SUNDAY: WEST COAST TO THE NORTH OF IBIZA

Welcome to the Pitiusas

Our first stop will be in a paradise with several coves of white sand, bathed by transparent waters from which we can see the islands of Es Bosc, Sa Conillera, Ses Bledes and S'Espartar. Anchoring in this place is unforgettable since Playas del Comte are considered to be among the 10 most beautiful in the world. We will have the afternoon free to swim, walk, snorkel or just relax and enjoy one of the best sunsets in Ibiza. Here we will spend our first night anchored in the moonlight.

MONDAY: IBIZA'S NORTH COAST

Cliffs, sea and spectacular coves

Today we will head north to enjoy magnificent sailing along the island's wildest coast. On the way, we will cool off in the blue waters of the Aubarca cove, and then head to San Miguel, a small and charming natural port, or to Benirras, a mythical cove where on summer evenings the sun goes down to the rhythm of drums, beaten by hippies who have been meeting people for many years around this ritual. The magical touch of this unique sunset is placed on the horizon Es Cap Bernat, a narrow and pointed islet, 27 meters high, located in the center of the bay.

TUESDAY: EAST COAST TO IBIZA CITY

Sailing, Relaxing and Ibizan Atmosphere

This time we will sail to the island of Tagomago, passing through Es Canaret and Portinatx. Tagomago is an islet of high ecological value, classified as a Natural Area of Special Interest. It is an important breeding ground for migratory birds, including the Eleonor falcon, the cuddly cormorants, virots, yellow-legged gulls and the Balearic shrew. Among its fauna, it is also worth highlighting a subspecies of the lizard from Ibiza and Formentera. Here we will anchor to enjoy a good morning swim in crystal clear waters and white sand.

And then, we will head towards any of the following alternatives to spend the afternoon and spend the night: Mooring ourselves in the port of Santa Eulalia, to enjoy its charming and lively walk. Or anchor in Ses Salines or in Cala Jondal, in the south of the island, with good taxi access to the city of Ibiza or, if possible, mooring ourselves at the Ibiza yacht club. Either of these two options would allow us to enjoy its port full of megayachts, experience the atmosphere or even dine at one of its restaurants if you feel like it.

WEDNESDAY: FROM IBIZA TO FORMENTERA

Wind, Sea and Adventure

After the best swim (the one in the morning) and after having breakfast, we will head to Formentera. A beautiful sailing trip awaits us, crossing Los Freus, to one of the best coves in all of the Balearic Islands, without a doubt, Cala Saona, where we will sleep at anchor. We will have the day off to enjoy the surroundings of the cove and its incredible turquoise waters. It is also a good time to rent a motorbike or bicycles and get to know the interior of this beautiful island for at least a few hours.

When the sun goes down, we will enjoy a beautiful sunset from the cliffs of Punta Rasa or sail gently while sharing a glass of good wine or champagne. And to round off the day, we will have a new option, for those who want to taste good fresh fish at one of the restaurants on the beach. A pleasure for the senses!

THURSDAY: FORMENTERA AND NIGHT IN IBIZA

Nature, Beauty and Caribbean Feelings

Today another intense and very special day awaits us. We will carry anchors early to sail to an anchorage near the paradisiacal island of Espalmador. We will stroll along its white sand beaches and cool off in its crystal clear waters. Everything invites calm and disconnection in this protected corner of the Pitiusa archipelago. Around the middle of tomorrow we will head to another dream place, Illetes. It is an authentic wild paradise located inside the Ses Salines Natural Park. More than 450 meters of pristine beach and crystal clear turquoise waters await us.

And after lunch we will bow down to discover the magical environment of Es Verrà, back in Ibiza. There, in good shelter of Cala d'Hort, we will enjoy the afternoon and one of the best sunsets on the islands, perhaps from the cliffs or on the sailboat itself sailing gently, while the king star is hidden by our bow and the unmistakable coast of Ibiza is removed in our wake, an experience that you will undoubtedly remember.

FRIDAY: IBIZA TO VALENCIA

Emotions on the skin

Today is our big last day, in which we will enjoy a new journey under the stars. And at dawn, the sun will accompany us as we share the experiences we have lived over these days together.

Finally we will moor our sailboat in the Royal Marina of Valencia, ending the cruise and an experience that will undoubtedly stay with you for a long time.

If you have an extra day, you can take the opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere, the modernity and the historic center of this city.

*The proposed program may vary partially or significantly at the discretion of the Captain, depending on weather or other circumstances, or at the request of the group.
