Choose your boat on our fleet page, pick a date and duration in the booking widget, and confirm online. You can also call +34 871 180 297 or email info@ibizahire.boats. We recommend booking at least 48–72 hours ahead in peak season (July–August).

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure for a full refund. Cancellations within 48 hours may incur a 50% charge. If weather conditions are unsafe, we reschedule your trip or offer a full refund.

Most bookings allow a partial online payment to secure your slot, with the remaining balance due on arrival. Exact payment terms are shown in the booking widget for your selected boat and date.

It depends on the boat. We offer license-free boats for beginners (no experience required) and licensed boats for holders of PNB or equivalent. If you don't have a license, choose a license-free boat or hire an optional skipper on licensed vessels.

Yes. Some charters include a professional captain; on others a skipper is available as an optional extra. Skippers know the best coves, handle navigation and ensure your group stays safe.

Our license-free fleet includes small boats such as the Estable 400 (up to 4 people). You receive a full safety briefing and navigation instructions before departure from San Antonio Bay.

Every listing shows specific inclusions. Typically: the boat, safety equipment, briefing and insurance. Many license-free boats include fuel for standard routes. Skippered charters often include captain, drinks and water sports gear — check each boat page.

Fuel policy varies by boat. License-free boats often include fuel for recommended local routes. Licensed self-drive boats usually charge fuel separately (often around €90 for a half day). Skippered luxury charters typically include fuel for standard itineraries.

Popular half-day routes include Cala Salada, Cala Gració and Punta Galera on the north coast, or Cala Bassa and Cala Conta on the west. Full-day trips can reach Es Vedrà or Formentera on suitable boats and weather.

Yes, on larger licensed or skippered boats for full-day charters, weather permitting. Formentera requires more fuel and time; confirm availability and any fuel supplement when booking.

Your safety comes first. If conditions are unsafe, we reschedule at no extra cost or provide a full refund. Light wind or cloud usually does not cancel trips — the captain or our team will advise.

Bring sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, swimwear, towels and a camera. Pack food and drinks unless your charter includes a drinks package. Valid ID and boating license (if self-driving) are required at check-in.
