When out on the beautiful Balearic sea and don't feel like making lunch, why not have it delivered directly to you on your boat from a top restaurant?
When you stop your boat to gaze at beautiful coastline or top up your tan on the deck, many eateries around the coasts of both Ibiza and Formentera allow you to simply order in from their menus and have it brought to you by dinghy. No need to go ashore at all.
Whether you are lucky enough to have your own boat or are hiring one for the day, you can have your jet-set moment enjoying some fabulous food and maybe some champagne - why not - without lifting a finger.
Here we give you three different places to choose from, all known for their excellent food, so anchor up, relax and live the dream a little.
Nassau Beach Club
Playa d'en Bossa beach, Ibiza
When stopping by Ibiza's longest beach, you're most likely to get a longing for the delicious food from the uber glamorous Nassau Beach Club. Its menu has something to delight all from freshly caught lobster to the most divine vegan rice dish around, plus the wine and champagne list really is excellent, so treat yourself to an amazing vintage to go with lunch. All is delivered by dinghy to make you feel like a god at sea.
Tropicana Ibiza Beach Club
Cala Jondal, Ibiza
Whilst many look for glitz and glamour at Cala Jondal on Ibiza's south coast, Tropicana Ibiza Beach Club goes more for laid-back luxury and excels at fresh Mediterranean flavours using fine foods. Acclaimed for its quality, the menu is brimming with magnificent dishes and drinks for you to enjoy all on the comfort of your boat. Duck foie gras, prawn carpaccio, lamb ribs and couscous or a cod confit. It's there for the eating.
ChezzGerdi
Es Pujols, Formentera
When you see the brightly painted VW Camper van on the shoreline, you know you've hit ChezzGerdi and it's time to dial in some eats. If it's a sparkling menu of food choices you want, this restaurant on Ibiza's sister island Formentera, will hit the spot. Freshly made pastas, incredible meat and fish dishes, a raw bar dispensing fresh sushi in a flash and maybe a bottle of tequila after you've finished the Dom Perignom. A true treat.
