Ibiza Boat Rental — Blue Ocean (Marina Ibiza)
Absolutely the best day of our holiday. The trip to Formentera was perfect for our group of 8 and our skipper Valentin was excellent — attentive and fun.
3 options from €250 per boat. Departures from Marina Ibiza, East Boats Ibiza, Puerto de San Antonio. Duration 3h – 8h.
Renting a boat in Ibiza starts at €250 per boat for a full day of eight hours with East Boats in Santa Eulària — the price is for the whole boat, and up to seven people share it.
From Marina Ibiza, Blue Ocean rents motorboats and yachts for up to eight people from €390 per boat per day, with or without a skipper; a typical day boards at 10:00, crosses to Formentera at 11:00 and is back at 18:00.
East Boats has licence-free boats, so a short briefing replaces a licence — that holds until 30 September 2026. Safety gear and life jackets are always included, the skipper is included on skippered options, while food and drinks, marina and entry fees and transfers are not — and fuel depends on the option you book.
Cast off from Marina Ibiza on a sailing yacht of your own and chart a full day to Formentera's powder-white sands — skipper optional. €575 for the boat for a full day, up to seven aboard, from Marina Ibiza.
Skipper a licence-free boat — licence-free until 30 September 2026 — from sleepy Santa Eulària to the sheltered east-coast calas of Cala Llonga and Es Canar. €250 for the boat for a full day, up to seven aboard, from Port de Santa Eulària.
The whole boat to yourselves for three hours: a wooden sailboat built in 1930 and restored in 2023, with crew, open bar and tapas, from Cala Bassa and the sea caves to the sunset off Café del Mar. €495 for the boat, up to 12 guests plus crew.

Absolutely the best day of our holiday. The trip to Formentera was perfect for our group of 8 and our skipper Valentin was excellent — attentive and fun.
We had the most fantastic day, a memory to remember. Our captain took us to the most phenomenal islands and coves — the best day of our holiday!
One of the best days of our holiday spent on the boat! Valentin is the best — he went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience.
For a girls’ trip, our captain Albert took great care of us and is also a great photographer — he even showed us places we didn’t know.
East Boats in Santa Eulària starts at €250 per boat for a full day for up to seven people; Blue Ocean at Marina Ibiza from €575 per boat for up to eight.
| Operator and tour | Price | Unit | Duration | Group |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| East Boats Ibiza · Santa Eulària | €250 | per boat | 8 h | up to 7 |
| Blue Ocean Ibiza · Marina Ibiza | €575 | per boat | 8 h | up to 7 |
These are starting rates, and the operator confirms the final price when you book. Filled to capacity, the €575 Blue Ocean day works out at €82.14 each for seven, while the €250 East Boats day stays €250 whether two people or seven step aboard — the unit is the hull, not the seat.
East Boats runs licence-free boats: a short briefing and you take the helm. Both operators also have skippered boats and yachts, and on those options the skipper is part of the price.
Important
The licence-free route has an end date. Until 30 September 2026 a boat under 5 metres with a motor of up to 15 CV may be hired without a licence, no further than 2 nautical miles from the port, in daylight only and from the age of 18. From 1 October 2026 RD 1188/2025 requires the person hiring the boat to hold the relevant qualification; the skippered options stay as they are. Details and dates: what changes on 1 October 2026.
Important
Fuel is included only on some Blue Ocean options and is extra at East Boats — check which one you are booking.
From Marina Ibiza the classic day boards at 10:00, crosses to Formentera at 11:00, stops for lunch and coves at 13:00, runs the west-coast calas at 16:00 and is back at 18:00.
From Santa Eulària the route stays on the calmer east coast — Cala Llonga, Es Canar and quiet calas — with Formentera trips available on request. Safety gear and life jackets are included on both; food and drinks, marina and entry fees and transfers are not.
Eight hours at the helm suits some groups and not others. The alternatives on the same island:
Tips, destinations and everything water-sports.

RD 1188/2025 rewrites article 10 of RD 875/2014: from 1 October 2026 the licence-free exception in Spain covers private and sporting use only, so the person hiring a motorboat of up to 5 metres and 15 CV must hold a qualification. Jet skis are taken out of the rule, skippered boats are untouched, and until 30 September 2026 nothing changes. What it means for a booking you have already paid for.
