Planning a trip to Formentera

Formentera is served by up to 36 boat crossings a day in summer, about eight per day in winter. Boats depart from Ciudad de Ibiza for La Savina, 3km (1 3/4 miles) north of Sant Francesc, the island’s capital and largest settlement. The trip takes between 35 minutes and 1 hour. A round-trip fare costs from 26€. For information, contact Aquabus (tel. 644-28-44-96), or check at your hotel.
