Charter Outremer in Ibiza: Models, Prices and Routes (2026)
Top Outremer Models for Ibiza Charters in 2026
Outremer catamarans are renowned for their daggerboards, light displacement, and exceptional bridge deck clearance, making them significantly faster than standard production catamarans. For the 2026 season in Ibiza, three specific models dominate the luxury charter market:
- Outremer 45: Ideal for smaller groups or families of 4 to 6. This model is agile and perfect for navigating the shallow turquoise coves (calas) of Formentera. It typically features 3 to 4 cabins.
- Outremer 51: The most popular choice for a balanced experience. It comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests plus crew. Its length provides a stable platform for crossing the channel between Ibiza and Mallorca if desired.
- Outremer 55: The flagship of the performance range for larger groups of up to 10 or 12 guests (including children). With its innovative "great room" layout and expansive cockpit, it offers a premium villa-like experience on the water.

Weekly and Daily Charter Rates in Ibiza (2026 Estimates)
Pricing for an Outremer charter depends heavily on the model year, the specific equipment (such as carbon masts or lithium power banks), and the time of year. Because Outremer yachts are specialized performance vessels, they command a premium over standard cruising cats.
| Season | Months | Estimated Weekly Rate (EUR) | Estimated Daily Rate (EUR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low Season | May & October | €8,500 – €12,000 | €1,400 – €1,900 |
| Mid Season | June & September | €11,000 – €16,000 | €1,800 – €2,500 |
| High Season | July & August | €15,000 – €22,000+ | €2,400 – €3,500 |
Note: Prices are subject to VAT (typically 21% in Spain) and the Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA).
Best 1-Day Routes from Marina Ibiza
Most Outremer charters depart from the prestigious Marina Ibiza or Marina Botafoch. Given the speed of these catamarans, a day trip allows you to cover more ground than a standard yacht.
A classic 1-day itinerary begins with a morning sail toward Espalmador, a private island just north of Formentera. After a swim in the pristine waters of S’Alga beach, you can sail down to Ses Illetes for a late lunch at world-class chiringuitos like Juan y Andrea. The afternoon is best spent tacking back toward the iconic rock formation of Es Vedrà. An Outremer’s ability to point closer to the wind ensures you can enjoy a genuine sailing experience even on a short day trip.
Extended 3-7 Day Itineraries: Exploring the Pityuses
A week-long charter allows you to fully experience the performance capabilities of your Outremer. A recommended 7-day loop includes:
- Day 1-2: South Ibiza & Formentera. Anchor at Cala Jondal and then cross to Formentera to explore the remote beaches of Migjorn on the south coast.
- Day 3: West Coast Gems. Sail past Es Vedrà to Cala d'Hort and Cala Tarida. The Outremer's shallow draft allows you to get closer to the shore than many monohulls.
- Day 4-5: Northern Wilderness. Experience the rugged beauty of the north. Anchor at Cala Xarraca or the horseshoe bay of Puerto de San Miguel. These areas are quieter and offer excellent snorkeling.
- Day 6: Tagomago Island. Sail to the private island of Tagomago on the northeast coast. It is a fantastic spot for a high-speed reach across the open water.
- Day 7: Santa Eulària and Return. Stop at the bay of Talamanca before returning to the main marina for your final evening.

What is Included and Logistics
When booking a luxury Outremer charter, it is essential to understand the "Plus Expenses" structure common in the Balearics. Typically, the base charter fee includes the yacht, the insurance, and the initial cleaning. However, several other factors must be budgeted:
- Skipper and Crew: Unless you have a specific performance catamaran certification and extensive experience, these yachts are chartered with a professional skipper who understands the nuances of daggerboards and high-speed sail trim.
- VAT: In Spain, a 21% Value Added Tax is applied to the charter fee.
- APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance): Usually 20-30% of the charter fee, used to cover fuel, food, beverages, and mooring fees in ports other than the home base.
- Mooring: Ibiza is home to some of the most expensive moorings in Europe. While many guests prefer to anchor out (buoys are available in protected areas like Ses Salines), overnight stays in the marina must be booked well in advance for 2026.
The 2026 Sailing Season and Weather
The Ibiza sailing season officially runs from May to October. For those prioritizing sailing performance on an Outremer, the "shoulder" months of June and September offer the best conditions. During these periods, the thermal winds (Embat) are more predictable, and the marinas are less crowded.
July and August provide the warmest water temperatures (averaging 26°C) and the most vibrant social scene, but winds can be lighter, requiring the use of large reachers or gennakers to maintain speed. October offers a unique opportunity for "empty" bays, though the chance of a "DANA" (isolated high-altitude depression) increases, potentially bringing short bursts of heavy rain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a license required to bareboat an Outremer in Ibiza?
Due to the high-performance nature and complexity of Outremer catamarans, most owners require a professional skipper or a very high level of proven experience on similar performance multihulls. Standard RYA Day Skipper or ICC licenses may not be sufficient without a documented resume of catamaran experience.
Can an Outremer accommodate 12 people comfortably?
While some models like the Outremer 55 are certified for up to 12 people for day charters, for overnight stays, 6 to 8 guests is the "sweet spot" for comfort. This ensures everyone has a private cabin and ample space in the salon and cockpit.
How does fuel consumption compare to power boats?
An Outremer is significantly more efficient than a motor yacht. Because these yachts can sail at 10-15 knots in moderate breezes, you will rarely need to use the engines except for docking and motoring in dead calms, drastically reducing your APA expenditure on fuel.
Are Outremer yachts child-friendly?
Yes, the stability of a catamaran makes it an excellent choice for families. However, because Outremers move faster and have more complex rigging than standard cruising cats, active supervision of children is required while under sail.
