Ibiza to Formentera: Ses Illetes & Espalmador
The crossing from Ibiza to Formentera is one of the Mediterranean's great short passages — just eleven nautical miles separate two islands that could not be more different. Where Ibiza pulses with energy, Formentera moves at the pace of the tide. Ses Illetes, consistently ranked among Europe's finest beaches, offers water clarity that rivals the Maldives. The private island of Espalmador, accessible only by boat, completes a day that defines Balearic luxury at its most natural.
