Detailed description

Ferry crossing from Ibiza to Espalmador with several access points in the south

The beautiful day trip to Ibiza starts in the morning in the south of the Balearic island. In the south you can choose between 2 access routes. The pure crossing from Ibiza to Espalmador takes about 45 minutes, but the total duration depends on the number of stops. However, as you can take the ferry from Ibiza to Espalmador along the beautiful coastline, you can simply relax on the deck of the boat and enjoy the beautiful view. You will cross the Parque Natural de Ses Salines, a breathtaking nature reserve around Espalmador and Formentera. Clear turquoise water and an impressive rocky coastline await you here. Please don't forget to take your meals with you to the island, because there is no way to buy anything. The ferry boat from Ibiza to Espalmador takes you to a natural paradise that invites you to relax and swim.

Arrived there, the Aquabus Ibiza usually anchors at the southern bay on the beautiful sandy beach Platja de s'Alga. Because of its proximity to the two Balearic Islands of Ibiza and Formentera, Espalmador is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, and in the summer it is frequented by many excursion boats that anchor in the bay. Espalmador is only about 150 meters away from the Caribbean island of Formentera and can be reached quickly from there. On Espalmador you can spend the rest of the day on your own imagination and explore the small island on foot. From Playa de s'Alga you can take a path to a sulphurous salt lagoon, where you could also take mud baths in the past. Due to bird diversity and other environmental regulations, this is now strictly forbidden. Enjoy Espalmador's great beach feeling on the long sandy beach in the south and visit the second bay in the northwest. Since the uninhabited and undeveloped island is only about 2 square kilometres large, you can explore everything in a short time. The ferry from Ibiza to Formentera makes it possible, as you will have until evening before you have to return to the dock.
