# Private Experience Full-day Sailing in Ibiza and Formentera

**Guidekin's take:** A private sailboat day for up to seven guests with a captain, paddleboards, snorkelling gear, wifi and a bathroom, sailing between Ibiza and Formentera, rated 4.89 across 79 reviews. Boat and captain are included at €680 per group/vehicle per group for 8h; bring your own food and drinks or book a restaurant on Formentera.

## Overview

Most boats in Ibiza take you to the same spots, on the same schedule, with people you've never met.

Bora Sailing is different: Your 43ft private sailboat fits up to 7 guests and is set up for comfort, with shaded areas, cushions on deck, and everything you need for a full day at sea.

Your captain, Gabi or Marco, has navigated these waters for over 10 years. They'll take you to hidden coves, local spots, and the best corners of Formentera that most tourists never find.

Swim at Ses Illetes, explore Espalmador, anchor at Playa de Levante, or let the captain surprise you. The route adapts to your group, the conditions, and what you actually feel like doing that day.

Lunch is your call: beach club in Formentera, fresh paella delivered onboard, or your own picnic at anchor.

No crowds. No fixed itinerary. Just a private day on the Mediterranean, done right.

4. **Playa de Ses Illetes** (2h) - We’ll make our first stop at Ses Illetes, often ranked among the best beaches in Europe.
