It is obvious that this island is an essential destination for two kinds of travelers, of different nature: those eager of strong emotions, who like to party hard, have to stop looking, Ibiza has infinite possibilities to satisfy the desire of revelry; others, possibly the less people, come to discover its hidden side through its multiple caves, virgin beaches or cliffs. Here the purpose is to relax.

Let's be honest. Coming on holiday to the island and not requesting this activity is quite rare. It is an incredible experience to go with your group of friends because the memories derived from this event are going to remain in your memory forever. This is so. The same applies to the celebration of a bachelor/bachelorette party, where the bride and groom are the center of attention: laughter, dancing, sunset, games, sharing, etc., are just some of the emotional words associated with such an evening. But, one above the rest: a lot of FUN

Where are the best areas to Boat Party in Ibiza?

• Beach of d’en Bossa: One of the companies operating in the town is based in Sant Josep de sa Talaia but they make departures from the marina of Beach d'en Bossa. This is, without any doubt, the most touristic town of Ibiza, with all kinds of services for the visitor, such as luxury hotel complexes, restaurants run by celebrities (such as Sublimotion, of the renowned Madrid chef Paco Roncero), residential areas or facilities for practicing water sports. But if anything characterizes the Beach d'en Bossa is for hosting some of the most renowned electronic music clubs in the world: there are Ushüaia, considered by DJ Magazine as the best club in the world, and Hï Ibiza. For all these reasons, it is an ideal place to start the excursion if you plan to round off the day with other leisure activities.

• San Antonio Abad: Just at the northern end of Beach d'en Bossa is San Antonio Abad, also called in Catalan Sant Antonio de Portmany. This parish has an extensive bay, one of the longest in the city, but stands out, primarily, for the coves that surround it, of monumental value among locals: Cala Gració, Gracioneta, Es Pouet, Es Caló des Moro, Punta Galera, Cap Blanc, Coves Blanques, Es Regueró, etc. A paradise that dazzles tourists who discover it.

What types of boat parties are available in Ibiza?

- Boat Party of 3 hours with or without open bar: all the offers in the region have the same duration, three hours. The differences between them are the starting point from which the trips are made, either Beach d'en Bossa or San Antonio Abad, and whether they include an open bar or not. In this sense, the companies share both alternatives in equal numbers, in equal proportion. Regarding the routes followed by each boat, logically, they go through different areas: some cross the area of the capital while the others go north through Cala Salada, Cala Bassa or Port des Torrent.

It's important to clarify that the routes without open bar do include in the price drinks such as beer, white wine or soft drinks for free, up to a maximum of four. In addition, almost all of them enliven the event with the performance of a DJ, with the presence of entertainers, with a champagne shower and CO2 cannons with megatron effect. Last but not least, some of them also provide food or snacks such as fruit.

What are the mandatory requirements for this experience?

Since alcohol consumption is involved, which of course is always voluntary, the only indispensable condition for participants is to be at least 18 years old, in accordance with the law. Again, consumption is not mandatory as all boats also offer soft drinks or juices for those who are teetotalers or simply do not feel like it at the time.

Are these tours safe on a festive boat?

If they were not at all reliable, no one would be offering them. It must be taken into account that all the boats, normally catamarans or sailboats of exorbitant dimensions to cover the enormous demand of the island, are enabled to support a great number of people on deck. This implies that all boats are equipped with various safety mechanisms, internal stabilizers so that the ship doesn’t shake or a solid structure that withstands any unforeseen event at sea.

In addition, those responsible for steering the vessel are captains with specific qualifications, trained in this discipline, capable of reacting quickly if any contingency should arise. On the other hand, the rest of the crew is also experienced in these matters, they are professionals who, beyond their role as entertainers, know how to act in the event of any contingency.

What do I have to bring on the day of the activity?

We are talking about an activity that takes place entirely in the sea, which stops for a certain duration so that passengers can take a dip in the waters of the Mediterranean, so it is reasonable according to these premises is to wear a swimsuit, a short-sleeved shirt and flip-flops. It would not be bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunscreen and a towel.

Also, considering that the breeze can blow with some intensity, and that it’s different to go sailing depending on the seasons, you should consider bringing a jacket or something warmer. In any case, nothing exaggerated would be necessary, since the climate of Ibiza has mild winters.

When is the best time for a boat party on the island of Ibiza?

Obviously, the best season to enjoy a boat party on this island of the Balearic archipelago is the summer, here temperatures are usually high, so the option to get on a boat of these characteristics and cool off with drinks or jumping into the water is perfect during the summer season.

In any case, we insist again on the same thing we mentioned a few paragraphs ago: winters are mild to the point that it is very common to see people on the open terraces of the bars at lunchtime. This allows sailing from the port throughout the whole year without the problem of being subjected to inclement weather as in other parts of the Peninsula.

There is no excuse. Not anymore after what we have just told you.
