Cala d'Hort and the Es Vedra coast boat trip

The experience

Why this trip is worth a day

The southwest coast delivers Ibiza at its most cinematic. The dark silhouette of Es Vedra rises from the sea beyond Cala d'Hort, changing shape as the boat moves along the coast and creating a spectacular backdrop for the day's cruising. Pair the scenic passage with clear-water swims in nearby coves, music on deck and a long lunch away from the road. This route is less about distance than atmosphere: cliffs, open horizons and one of the Mediterranean's most memorable island views.

   Scenic pass by Es Vedra

   Let the boat move slowly through the changing viewpoints around Es Vedra and Es Vedranell. The drama comes from seeing the islets in full scale from the water, with uninterrupted space for photographs and a toast on deck.
