Ibiza and Formentera Yacht Week — A Working 7-Day Itinerary

# Ibiza and Formentera Yacht Week — A Working 7-Day Itinerary A private yacht charter in Ibiza and Formentera is the Mediterranean's most concentrated lifestyle week — beach clubs, DJ residencies, sunset rituals at Es Vedrà — but planned badly it becomes traffic jams between Marina Ibiza and Illetes. This 7-day Ibiza yacht charter itinerary is built around the anchorages that matter and the **Posidonia seagrass anchoring rules** that catch first-time captains by surprise. ## Day 1 — Marina Ibiza → Talamanca Guest pickup at Ibiza Airport (IBZ), 15-minute transfer to Marina Ibiza. Lunch underway, anchor at **Talamanca** for the first afternoon swim. Sunset cocktails on the foredeck with Dalt Vila as the backdrop. Dinner at **Lío** inside the marina — book table 4 weeks ahead. ## Day 2 — Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta Dawn departure for **Cala Salada** on the north-west coast — sheltered pine-fringed cove, glass-clear water, lunch on board. Tender into adjacent **Cala Saladeta** for the rope swing and rock platforms. Sunset cruise back along the west coast. ## Day 3 — Es Vedrà sunset Late morning departure south-west to **Es Vedrà**, anchoring north of the rock to keep clear of the Posidonia field. Lunch underway. Late afternoon at **Cala d'Hort** beach. Sunset cocktails on the foredeck with Es Vedrà silhouetted to the west — the signature Ibiza yacht charter moment. ## Day 4 — Crossing to Formentera (Illetes) Morning crossing south-east to **Illetes**, Formentera's turquoise sandbank. Anchor north of the lighthouse on a designated buoy (not on the seagrass) — the Posidonia field starts immediately south. Tender ashore for lunch at **Juan y Andrea** (book a week ahead in season). ## Day 5 — Cala Saona and Es Caló Morning at **Cala Saona** on Formentera's west coast. Lunch at **Es Caló** on the north coast — small fishing-village restaurants where catch-of-the-day actually means it. ## Day 6 — Espalmador and back to Ibiza Morning at **Espalmador** — the small uninhabited island between Ibiza and Formentera with the famous natural mud pool. Late afternoon cruise back to Ibiza, dinner at **Cipriani Downtown** inside Marina Ibiza. ## Day 7 — Final morning, return to Marina Ibiza Final swim at **Cala Bassa**, lunch underway, dock at Marina Ibiza for guest departure. ## The Posidonia rule every captain must know The Balearic government enforces strict anchoring rules to protect Posidonia seagrass meadows. Most Ibiza and Formentera anchorages now require either a designated buoy or anchoring on a clear sand patch verified with an underwater camera. Fines for chain damage on seagrass run to €100,000+. Reputable charter operators use the official anchoring app (Posidonia Maps) or book buoys in advance.
