Ibiza is a jewel in the Mediterranean that attracts yacht and motorboat enthusiasts from around the world. A thriving charter scene, offering a wide variety of vessels to suit all budgets, is the result.
However, many charter companies cater for the simple option of a blast in the traffic down to the beaches of Formentera, which can become crowded with boats in the summer. Why not go “off the beaten track” and explore the majestic, rugged coastline of the North of the Island with Nautical Ibiza?
Explore the North
The seven-hour "Explore the North" charter, takes you from the marina of Sant Antoni, along the NW coast, to the spiritual beach of Benirras. Here you can choose to picnic on the sand or enjoy delicious seafood at the Elements Beach Club.
The skipper will stop along the way at family favourite beaches Cala Salada and Cala Gracio, for a refreshing swim among some of the most abundant sea life of the island. As well as exploring some lesser-known gems such as Punta Galera, Cala Sardina and an essential stop for a dive into the crystalline waters of the delightful, deserted Es Portixol.
Ibiza's dramatic geology
Marvel at the dramatic geology, explore unique areas of Ibiza only accessible by water and get to fully appreciate how the island garners its nickname, The White Island. Highlights of the trip are passing through one of Ibiza's most dramatic geological landmarks, Las Puertas del Cielo (Heaven's Gate) and snorkel diving onto a wreck, submerged five metres below the waves. Very few visitors to the island get to enjoy these treats and they are truly inspiring.
Your craft, ideal for exploring the small coves of the North, is a nimble 26ft Four Winns Horizon Bowrider, which can comfortably accommodate a party of around six passengers. Step on board and you will be greeted with a sparkling glass of Champagne and be treated to complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks for the duration of the voyage. She will skip along lightly over the surface at a brisk 30 knots, while you recline on the hand-stitched upholstery, both fore and aft.
For the thrill seeking enthusiast on-board, the boat is fitted with a full range of watersport equipment – snorkels, skis, wakeboard, kneeboard and inflatables. The skipper is also qualified to offer instruction to the novice. The bravest daredevils might like to direct the skipper towards some of the best cliff diving spots on the island, at their own liability of course…
No hidden costs
Prices are very competitive and there are no hidden shocks: quoted prices are inclusive of skipper, drinks, fuel, equipment hire and VAT! There is also the option of hiring a hostess for the day who would be willing to pour your drinks, take care of your children or even give you a relaxing massage!
On your return you will follow the setting sun home to port, getting you back in time to enjoy a tired, but satisfied, sundowner at your favourite bar.
