An unforgettable day in Ibiza
Wow - What a great day trip. This was the last day of our wonderful holiday in Ibiza and we certainly saved the best for last. Irene and Alberto hosted a fantastic trip to Formentera. The day before we were contacted with all the details - including pin locations for parking and meeting point. On the day we were transferred to the sailing boat from the meeting point. There are plenty of nice spots to sit onboard and enjoy the cruise to Formentera. We were on a small group trip but it does not feel crowded. There are two wonderful stops on the trip - an island only accessible by boat where you can swim or enjoy the location, and then onto the most beautiful beach where again you are free to do whatever you want. Onboard you are very well looked after with drinks and a generous snack plate. Out hosts could not do enough for us. The descriptions of the tour don't really fully describe what a fantastic day out it is. I would fully recommend for families, couples or groups of friends. A really unforgettable trip to the most beautiful locations with the kindest hosts. Grazie Mille.

A Beautiful Day spent on the Mediterranean!
This was such a fun day spent on the water and beaches of Formentera! After some late nights out on Ibiza, this was a peaceful and relaxing experience. Alberto and Irena were incredibly welcoming - such great hosts! We enjoyed time on the boat, on shore at one of the beaches, and snorkeling. They provided drinks and snacks which was very nice. The food was enough for us as we had a big breakfast, but you may want to bring some additional food in case. A note if you take a Taxi to and from the location - the taxi may not drive you down to the pier meeting point as the road is a little steep and bumpy - we had to walk about 5 minutes down to the water. No big deal, but good to know. After the day was over, they dropped us off at a beach club nearby as that's an easier spot to get a taxi from. You will want to download the TaxiClick app, to order a taxi for your return to your hotel or wherever you go afterward. Next time in Ibiza - we would definitely book with Alberto and Irena again!

Alberto & Irene welcome...
Alberto & Irene welcome you like long lost friends and the day trip reflects that , It was fun, informative, safe but chill. We had a really lovely day, stopping of at the turquoise waters at Espelmador then a quick trip to Ses Illetes in Formentera for little lunch. An excellent day with drinks and snacks provided..

Wonderful hospitality and beautiful views
We had the most amazing day sailing with Alberto and Irena. They took such good care of us and made sure we had a really fun day. They reached out and communicated the meeting location before the trip and a suggestion for where to park, and made sure everyone was comfortable once on board. Irena prepared a wonderful little snack box for each couple to share with some salami, nuts, chips, and olives/pickles. We didn’t bring lunch and were expecting to need to go ashore in Formentera for lunch, but the snack box tided us over and was the perfect amount of food. They kept the beers and wine coming throughout the afternoon, and the spots they took us to were absolutely gorgeous. They provided floaties, noodles, a paddle board and snorkeling equipment for anyone who wanted it. The boat was beautiful and comfortable, and we appreciated the small group atmosphere of this tour. Can’t WAIT to come back!!

Highly recommended for those who want to relax
One of the highlights of our holiday! I booked this for my partner at the end of June as an alternative to taking the ferry and I’m so glad that I did. It’s brilliant value for money. Our hosts, Alberto and Irene sent a confirmation message via WhatsApp the day before, with suggestions of where to park the car and where to meet on the beach. Once onboard Irene explained the plan for the journey. Alberto and Irene are brilliant knowledgable hosts, ensuring that we are safe whilst onboard and share their expertise on sailing, Formentara and the best locations in Ibiza according to your tastes. This experience was just the right amount of time from departure to return. The atmosphere onboard was relaxed, and I would recommend this for those who want a quieter experience with some chatting, but without the pressure to get to know everyone in the group (we had 6 others on our trip).

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ibiza.
How much does Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ibiza usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ibiza is not rushed.
Is Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 144 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ibiza, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza?
+
Around 50 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ibiza can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ibiza and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ibiza within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ibiza?
+
On Outty we rank every Ibiza experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ibiza Beach Hopping Cruise with Paddleboards, Drinks and Food 6h, Ibiza Pool Party and Club Tour including O Beach and Eden Club, 3 Hours All Inclusive Boat Trip Ibiza. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ibiza?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ibiza?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Where is the meeting point for Formentera Small-Group Day Trip by Sailboat from Ibiza?
+
