Sant Antoni and the western coves boat trip

The experience

Why this trip is worth a day

Ibiza's west coast is made for a day that moves between vivid coves and long spells in the water. From Sant Antoni, the boat can reach Cala Bassa, Platges de Comte, Cala Tarida and Cala Vedella without wasting the day crossing the island. Every stop has a different character: bright sandy shallows, rocky snorkelling edges, beach-club energy and wide views across the western islets. Go early for a full day of swimming and lunch, or leave later and let the warm evening light become the final part of the experience.

Suggested stops

Use these as the shape of the day, with enough time at each stop to swim, relax and enjoy being there.

1. 1

   Cala Bassa

   Cala Bassa combines clear, sheltered-looking water with a lively beach backdrop. It is a natural first swim from Sant Antoni and a good place to ease the group into the day before heading farther along the coast.

2. 2

   Platges de Comte

   Platges de Comte opens onto small islands and some of Ibiza's most recognisable blue water. Cruise the shoreline, swim where the captain finds comfortable space and keep the camera ready for the layered sea views.

3. 3

   Cala Tarida or Cala Vedella
