Luxury Sailing with Professional Crew

The service includes the yacht, a certified professional skipper, and essential safety equipment. Most vessels feature spacious cabins, fully equipped galleys, and comfortable sun decks for lounging.

Unforgettable Routes Around the Island

Sailing from the Port of La Savina, you have immediate access to some of the most beautiful anchorages in Europe. A typical itinerary includes the legendary shores of Ses Illetes, where the sand is white and the water is a vibrant turquoise. Your skipper can take you to the pristine island of Espalmador, accessible only by boat, for a secluded swim. For those seeking more dramatic scenery, sailing toward the lighthouse at Cap de Barbaria offers breathtaking cliffside views. The calm conditions around Formentera make it ideal for anchoring in Cala Saona, a natural bay perfect for watching the sunset with a glass of local wine.

Pricing and Booking Process

The cost of renting a sailboat with a skipper in Formentera varies based on the season, the size of the vessel, and the duration of the charter. During the peak months of July and August, daily rates typically start from €1,200, while shoulder seasons in May or September offer more competitive pricing. The price usually covers the boat and the skipper’s fee, while fuel, mooring fees outside the base port, and food are typically extra. Booking is straightforward through our platform: once you select your dates and yacht, our team coordinates the logistics to ensure your skipper is ready and the boat is fully provisioned for your arrival.

Best Time to Sail and Local Tips

The sailing season in Formentera runs from May through October, with the most stable winds occurring in early summer. For a truly integrated luxury experience, many of our clients combine a few days at sea with a stay in one of our exclusive villas in the Sant Francesc or Es Migjorn areas. We recommend packing light, soft-soled shoes for the deck and plenty of eco-friendly sunscreen to protect the delicate marine ecosystem. Don't forget to ask your skipper for recommendations on the best 'chiringuitos' or beach clubs, as many iconic spots like Juan y Andrea offer tender services to pick you up directly from your anchored sailboat.

FAQ

Do I need a license for skippered sailboat rentals in Formentera?

No, you do not need a sailing license or any previous experience. When you book skippered sailboat rentals, a professional captain is responsible for the vessel, navigation, and safety. You can simply relax and enjoy the journey while the skipper handles the technical aspects of the trip.

What is included in the price of a skippered charter?

Generally, the price includes the yacht rental, the skipper's professional fee, and standard cleaning. It is important to note that 'APA' (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) or extra costs like fuel, food, drinks, and port fees outside of La Savina are usually paid separately. We provide a clear breakdown of costs during the booking process.

Can we customize our sailing itinerary?

Absolutely. One of the main advantages of having a skipper is their local knowledge. While they will suggest the best spots based on weather and wind conditions, you can discuss your preferences, whether you want to spend more time snorkeling in hidden coves or visiting the most popular beach clubs on the island.

Is Formentera suitable for a day trip or a weekly rental?

Both are excellent options. A day trip is perfect for visiting the northern beaches and Espalmador. However, a weekly rental allows you to truly decompress, circumnavigate the island at a slower pace, and even cross over to Ibiza to explore its diverse coastline before returning to the tranquility of Formentera.
