Formentera and s’Espalmador Catamaran Cruise with BBQ

This is a day dedicated to pure relaxation in arguably the most exotic waters in the Mediterranean. You'll drift over from Ibiza in a catamaran, scooting by the islands of Formentera and s'Espalmador for some well-deserved sunbathing and swimming. There's a barbecue lunch on board, too, so everything's taken care of. Antoni, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘I'm from the Balearics, and even for me, s'Espalmador is a dream. A virgin islet surrounded by clean waters and untouched by civilisation.'Leaving the sun-kissed shores of Ibiza behind, you'll skim the surface of the azure Med as you sail towards s'Espalmador. You'll moor up so that you can step off the catamaran and explore the isle's Insta-perfect powder-white beach or cool down with a swim as your crew gets lunch underway. This uninhabited island is surrounded by a string of smaller islets, and the channel separating it from Formentera is so shallow that you can wade over.Back on board, you'll get to tuck into a barbecue, accompanied by salad and fresh fruit, all made from locally sourced ingredients. Then, hop on over to Formentera, Ibiza's tropical little sister, for another swim. This exclusive island has managed to stay under the radar despite being ringed by enticing fluorescent seas and rocky inlets. To protect the submarine eco-system, especially the fragile underwater posidonia meadows, the boat doesn't anchor, and no plastics are used on board.
