Discover Formentera is only available for private bookings for a minimum of 20 people.
If you thought that Formentera was out of reach, then you'll be excited to hear that Aquabus is running this trip to Ibiza's smaller sister island every Tuesday and Friday.
The trip includes a bus tour of Formentera, a paella lunch at a local restaurant and time to discover Es Pujols, the main seaside resort. With Aquabus, you get affordable and magical trips from a well-established firm with a true family feeling.
The following timetable and stops are orientative and can be adapted to your preferences. The main stops are:
- At 10:15 the excursion to Formentera departs from Playa d'en Bossa. The crossing to this pretty island takes just under one hour.
- At 11:30, upon arrival at La Savina, the port of Formentera, the bus takes you to the famous Illetes beach for a swim in the turquoise waters.
- At 12:45 the bus takes you to the restaurant in the village of San Francisco for lunch at a local restaurant which includes a salad, paella, dessert, and drink (all included in the ticket price). After lunch, you have time to stroll through the village or go for a coffee or an ice cream in one of the small bars.
