Day charter from Ibiza to Formentera
An Ibiza to Formentera day charter is the classic full-day route: leave an Ibiza marina in the morning, cross to Formentera's clear water, anchor for swimming and lunch, and return by evening. At The Yacht Broker Club you only see boats that are free on your date, with skipper included on an 8-hour day, then book straight on WhatsApp.
Why Formentera by private yacht
A public ferry gets you to the island. A private day charter gets you the coastline: quiet anchorages, swimming off the boat, and a timetable that fits your group. Most guests want a full day (about 8 hours) with a professional skipper so nobody needs a licence and everyone can enjoy the water.
Typical day (example itinerary)
Morning departure from Marina Ibiza, Marina Botafoc, or another agreed Ibiza port. Cross to Formentera, then anchor near Ses Illetes / Illetes for swimming and photos. Optional stop at Espalmador when conditions allow. Lunch on board or ashore (we can point you to favourites in our restaurants guide). Afternoon cruise and return to Ibiza before evening.
Exact stops always depend on wind, sea state, and your skipper's advice. Safety and comfort come first.
