Ferry Ibiza → Formentera 🇪🇸🇪🇸
The Ibiza to Formentera ferry is the fastest and most frequent hop in the Balearics — and the only way to reach Formentera, which has no airport. Operated by Baleària, Trasmapi and Aquabus, the crossing takes roughly 58 minutes from Ibiza port to La Savina, with fares from around €30 per person. In summer boats run almost non-stop, leaving every 30 to 60 minutes, so you can sail across on a whim for a day trip or stay overnight. The reward is some of the clearest turquoise water in the Mediterranean and the white sands of Ses Illetes. Cars are carried, but Formentera limits vehicle access in high season (a permit is required), so most travellers cross on foot and rent a scooter or bike on arrival.
