Ibiza Boat Trips 2026

Sunset cruises are the most popular option. They run for around three hours from late afternoon, heading west along the coast to catch the sunset at sea, typically with tapas, an open bar and a DJ or live music on board. These are social, shared boats that suit couples and groups alike.

Party boats are bigger, louder and longer. Expect banana boats, water trampolines, snorkelling stops and a full bar. These suit groups who want a day of swimming and music rather than a quiet sail. Full-day coastal excursions visit the west coast's best coves (Cala Bassa, Cala Comte, Cala Salada) with swimming stops and lunch on board.

Private charters are available as sailboats, catamarans or motor yachts. You set the itinerary, the departure time and the pace. Most include a skipper, fuel, basic provisions and optional catering upgrades. They suit families, celebrations or anyone who wants to avoid the shared-boat crowd.

Shared boats typically include food (tapas, paella or a buffet lunch) and a premium open bar covering beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks. Towels and snorkelling gear are usually provided. Bring sunscreen, a hat and a swimsuit. Most boats have a shaded area but deck space is in full sun.

Departure points vary by operator. San Antonio harbour is the most common for west-coast trips, Ibiza Town marina for south-coast routes. Some party boats and sunset cruises also depart from Playa d'en Bossa. Check your voucher for the exact meeting point and arrive 15-20 minutes early.
