SAILING ADVENTURES AROUND IBIZA AND FORMENTERA WITH MARCUS YACHTING
Ahoy, fellow adventurers! I go by the moniker of "The Captain of Chill," and I'm an esteemed member of the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 family of sailboats. My passion is navigating the pristine waters of Ibiza, and I proudly call the San Antonio de Portmany port my home.
Embarking on a journey with me promises an exploration of picturesque coves for swimming, breathtaking sunsets, and prime anchoring locations. Beyond the allure of these islands' natural beauty and good vibes, there's a distinct nautical advantage to sailing around Ibiza and Formentera: their manageable size ensures you can fully embrace their charm within a week. Moreover, you'll always find shelter nearby should inclement weather arise.
Your first step towards a memorable vacation? Renting me, or any of my like-minded companions, through Marcus Yachting – a streamlined, secure, and speedy process for boat rentals in Ibiza.
With the vessel secured, it's time to hoist the sails and embark on our maritime odyssey.
I, as a serene vessel, am committed to offering you a tranquil sailing experience. My preferred route meanders along Ibiza's west coast, from San Antonio to the enchanting Es Vedra, where the sheltered waters shield us from eastward winds. Similar sailing conditions bless the southern coast of Ibiza, while Formentera beckons with its paradisiacal ambiance and ideal winds for sailing.

IBIZA AND FORMENTERA
FROM SAN ANTONIO TO CALA BASSA
We kick off our voyage from my hometown of San Antonio de Portmany. Though our ultimate destination is southward, toward Formentera, we first chart a course northwest and northeast to visit the wonders of Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta. These pristine beaches, with their turquoise waters, are perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
Pro tip: The local hippies craft exquisite mojitos, and they might even deliver them to your boat via paddleboard!
Next, we head to the enchanting Cala Bassa, nestled amidst a fragrant pine forest. A quintessential Mediterranean gem, this cove becomes our anchorage for the night. Several restaurants line the shore, and the Cala Bassa Beach Club (CBBC) provides the perfect backdrop for our inaugural sunset together.
Optional: While the sunset at Cala Conta is a spectacle worth witnessing, do note that it's more exposed to winds and offers less shelter compared to Cala Bassa for a serene night's rest.
DAY 1
IBIZA AND FORMENTERA
FROM CALA BASSA TO CALA PORROIG
Greetings, sailors! Today, we explore some of Ibiza's most renowned beaches: Cala Conta, Cala Tarida, and Cala Vedella. These are must-visit stops on our journey. Along the way, we'll pass by Cala D’Hort and the enigmatic island of Es Vedrà, reserving Es Vedrà for our return to the marina.
Our final destination today is a hidden gem: Cala Porroig, one of my personal favorites in Ibiza. Nestled amidst nature and away from the tourist crowds, this cove's fishing huts exude charm. It offers excellent protection from most winds, ensuring a peaceful night's rest after savoring a delectable seafood dinner.
Optional: If you're in the mood for something livelier, Cala Jondal, near Cala Porroig, beckons. It's a hotspot where you can mingle with locals and savor mojitos by the beach, accompanied by live music and a parade of beautiful people at the Blue Marlin.

FROM CALA PORROIG TO CALA SAONA
You've chartered a boat in Ibiza; let's set sail! Today's itinerary includes one of our longer journeys. We leave Cala Porroig and head southeast toward Formentera. Our first stop is Espalmador Island, a stunning part of the Ses Salines Natural Park and one of Formentera's most awe-inspiring landscapes.
While here, indulge in a classic island experience – a mud bath – and let your social media followers envy your idyllic Formentera adventure. But don't forget to rinse off before reboarding!
Our journey continues along Formentera's west coast, passing by the renowned Ses Illetes beach and the island's sole marina, La Savina. Our ultimate destination today: Cala Saona. With its crystal-clear, unforgettable waters, this cove invites you to dive in and experience paradise. Capture stunning photos to share your adventure on social media.
Cala Saona is serene and provides a perfect anchoring spot for the night. It boasts charming chiringuitos (beach bars) and restaurants, offering both sustenance and cocktails. If you're up for some exercise, hike to the cliffs of Punta Rasa.
DAY 3
IBIZA AND FORMENTERA
FROM CALA SAONA TO SES ILLETES
As we commence our return journey, remember that our adventure isn't over yet! If you're contemplating a hippie lifestyle change, today could be the day. We've saved the best for last, and today's sailing is leisurely. Set your course north or northwest along the coast to Ses Illetes Beach, often dubbed the "Spanish Caribbean" due to its crystal-clear turquoise waters and fine white sand. Relax, relish the scenery, the water, the company of friends and family, and the delightful moments of our boat trip.
Interested in further island exploration? Charter a motorbike at the La Savina marina for an enjoyable and popular way to discover Ibiza. Visit the local hippy markets, meet bohemian artists, and hike to the La Mola lighthouse.
I'll be here, awaiting your return for the sunset. Tonight, we'll anchor at Ses Illetes, where we'll spend the night.
DAY 4


IBIZA AND FORMENTERA
FROM SES ILLETES TO SES SALINES
Today, we set sail north-northwest toward the White Island, bound for its most renowned beach: Ses Salines, or Las Salinas. You might wonder why this beach garners such fame. Well, it's known for attracting famous faces. Why do celebrities flock here? Likely because Ses Salines is one of Ibiza's most stunning beaches. Nestled within the Ses Salines Natural Park, it features sandy shores protected by dunes and pine trees. Its waters, flowing through the posidinia prairie, are exceptionally pure and transparent, earning it World Heritage status.
Having chartered a sailboat in Ibiza, let's drop anchor near a luxury yacht. You might find yourself swimming alongside a tattooed soccer player or perhaps a Hollywood actress.
The beach offers a diverse array of bars, ranging from the exclusive Malibu, where champagne flows alongside delectable dishes, to the more laid-back Sa Trinxa, known for beachside dancing to its famous house music. Ses Salines offers a tranquil and sheltered setting for a delightful evening aboard.
DAY 5

As we near the end of this incredible journey, remember that it's not goodbye but rather a "see you soon." I'm confident that you'll return to explore these azure waters once more. It has been an absolute pleasure sailing with all of you, fellow adventurers.
I'll be here, ready and waiting. By the way, which route has captured your heart the most?
