Charter Axopar in Ibiza: Models, Prices and Routes (2026)
The Most-Requested Axopar Models for Ibiza
Axopar has revolutionized the day-boat market with its "adventure hull" design, which allows for stable cruising even when the Balearic chop picks up. For the 2026 season, three specific configurations dominate the local charter market, each catering to different group sizes and needs.
- Axopar 28 (T-Top or Cabin): Ideal for couples or small groups of up to 7 guests. This 9-meter vessel is the ultimate "beach hopper," featuring a walk-around deck and a highly efficient hull that keeps fuel consumption low while maintaining speeds of 30+ knots.
- Axopar 37 (Sun-Top or XC Cross Cabin): The flagship of the Ibiza charter scene. At 11.5 meters, it accommodates up to 11 or 12 guests for day charters. The Sun-Top version offers a massive shaded social area, while the XC Cross Cabin provides a weather-proof sanctuary for early or late-season excursions.
- Axopar 45 Sun-Top: The newest and largest addition to the fleet. This 14-meter powerhouse features gull-wing doors, multiple social zones, and an enriched cabin layout, making it suitable for those who want the Axopar aesthetic with the volume of a larger motor yacht.

Daily and Weekly Charter Prices (2026 Estimates)
Pricing for an Axopar charter in Ibiza varies significantly based on the month and the specific model. High season (July and August) sees the highest demand and rates, while the "shoulder months" of June and September offer a balance of great weather and more competitive pricing.

Best 1-Day Routes from Ibiza Town
Most Axopar charters depart from the marinas in Ibiza Town (Marina Botafoch or Marina Ibiza) due to their proximity to the most famous coastal landmarks. The Axopar’s speed allows you to see more in eight hours than a traditional displacement yacht.
- The Formentera Classic: Cross the Freus channel to Espalmador, a pristine uninhabited island. Continue to Ses Illetes for lunch at iconic spots like Juan y Andrea or Beso Beach. End the day with a swim in the turquoise caves of Cala Saona.
- The Es Vedrà Magic: Head West from Ibiza Town, passing the stylish beaches of Cala Jondal (home to Blue Marlin). Cruise toward the monolithic rock of Es Vedrà. The Axopar’s shallow draft allows you to get close to the cliffs for incredible photography before stopping at Cala d'Hort for a traditional paella.
- Tagomago & North Ibiza: For those seeking privacy, head North toward the private island of Tagomago. Explore the rugged coastline of San Vicente and the hidden coves of Portinatx, where the water remains calm even when the southern beaches are crowded.
Extended 3-7 Day Itineraries
While many use these boats for day trips, the Axopar 37 and 45 models are increasingly popular for "island hopping" itineraries involving overnight stays in luxury ports or coastal villas. For a comprehensive experience, consider our Ibiza yacht and villa packages which combine sea and land luxury.
- Days 1-2: Explore the South Coast of Ibiza and the Northern tip of Formentera. Anchor in Es Caló for some of the best snorkeling in the Balearics.
- Days 3-4: Navigate to the West of Ibiza. Spend time in the bay of Sant Antoni, visiting Cala Comté and Cala Tarida. The Axopar’s agility is perfect for tucking into the small "calas" that larger yachts cannot enter.
- Days 5-7: Circum-navigate the island. Visit the bohemian North, stop at Benirrás for the sunset drums, and return to Ibiza Town via the quiet eastern bays of Santa Eulària.
Logistics: Marinas and Berthing
In Ibiza, location is everything. Most Axopar charters are based in Marina Botafoch. This marina is preferred for its easy access, ample parking, and variety of high-end cafes. Some premium models are moored at Marina Ibiza, which is home to Lío and world-class luxury boutiques.
If you are staying in a villa in the North or West, we can often arrange a "pick-up" service in San Antonio or Santa Eulària, though this may incur a delivery fee to cover the fuel and skipper's time to relocate the vessel from its home port.
What is Included in Your Charter?
Transparency is vital when booking a luxury charter. At Charter & Villas, we ensure you understand the cost structure before you board. A typical Axopar charter in Ibiza includes:
- Professional Skipper: Essential for navigating the local regulations and finding the best hidden spots.
- Standard Equipment: Snorkeling gear, towels, and a complimentary starter pack of soft drinks, water, and ice.
- Insurance: Full marine insurance for the vessel and all passengers.
- End Cleaning: Included in the daily rate.
What is NOT included: Fuel is almost always charged according to consumption (calculated via engine hours or a "full-to-full" policy). 21% Spanish VAT is mandatory. For larger vessels or multi-day trips, an APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) of 30% is standard to cover food, drinks, and mooring fees outside the home port.
Weather and the Best Time for a Charter
The Ibiza charter season officially runs from May to late October. July and August offer guaranteed heat and a vibrant atmosphere, but the sea is busiest. June and September are widely considered the "golden months" by locals, featuring sea temperatures around 24°C and significantly less traffic at the popular Formentera anchorages.
The Axopar design is particularly well-suited for the "Gregal" (Northeast) or "Sirocco" (Southeast) winds that can occasionally create chop. The sharp entry bow cuts through waves, ensuring a dry and stable ride even when other day boats are forced to stay in the marina.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many people can go on an Axopar 37 in Ibiza?
According to Spanish maritime law, the Axopar 37 is licensed for a maximum of 12 people (usually 11 guests + 1 skipper). This makes it the most cost-effective option for large groups looking for a premium experience without the price tag of a 60ft motor yacht.
Do I need a license to rent an Axopar?
Most Axopar charters in Ibiza are "with skipper" only. This ensures the safety of the guests and the vessel. However, if you possess a valid International Certificate of Competence (ICC) or equivalent and have significant experience, some "bareboat" options may be available for the Axopar 28, subject to a sea trial and a higher security deposit.
Is fuel included in the price?
No, fuel is never included in the base price of an Axopar charter in Ibiza. On average, a standard trip to Formentera in an Axopar 37 costs between €150 and €250 in fuel, depending on the speed and the exact route taken. This is significantly more efficient than traditional flybridge yachts.
Can we play our own music on board?
Yes, all Axopar models in our 2026 fleet come equipped with premium Fusion or JL Audio sound systems with Bluetooth connectivity. You can easily pair your device to enjoy your own playlists while cruising or at anchor.
