Description

Go snorkelling in the crystalline waters of Espalmador, Cala Saona and Cala de Moro on this Zodiac ride in Formentera.

Formentera Boat Ride & Snorkelling

Formentera is a Mediterranean paradise. You'll meet your guide at Cala Saona and take an unforgettable journey around this beautiful area of the Balearic Islands.

We'll spend 3.5 hours cruising aboard a semi-rigid boat that measures 33 feet (10 metres) long and has 250 hp. This boat also has an awning and a fridge, making it the perfect means of transport to visit the most beautiful parts of Formentera!

During the trip, we'll make a total of four stops to go snorkelling for 40 minutes and enjoy the different paradisiacal landscapes.

Our first stop will be on the island of Espalmador: a beautiful virgin territory characterised by its famous natural pools. Then we'll head to Cala del Moro Marine Park and dive into its crystalline waters before heading to the Caves of Formentera where we'll also explore the sea bed.

The fourth and last stop will be at Cala Saona bay, whose turquoise waters will take our breath away! After enjoying a swim, we'll return to the starting point.

Todo bien. Lo único que no me gustó fue la visita a la isla de Espalmador. La isla está bien, pero no tiene nada especial una vez haber visto Illetes y otras playas de Formentera. Además, como es a primera hora de la mañana, la opción de bañarse no es muy apetecible. Dedicaría este tiempo a estar en otro lugar Translate this opinion into English.

All good. The only thing I didn't like was the visit to the island of Espalmador. The island is fine, but there is nothing special once you have seen Illetes and other beaches in Formentera. Also, since it is first thing in the morning, the option of bathing is not very appealing. I would spend this time being somewhere else Opinion translated. Show original.

Fantástica. Me encantó la excursión. El conductor de la lancha Gian Luca muy majo y agradable. Atento a lo que quisiéramos saber y nos explicó durante el recorrido detalles interesantes. La isla de Espalmador paradisiaca, con aguas tranquilas a primera hora de la mañana. Me recordó estar perdido en un atolon de Maldivas....Puedes aparcar en zona azul frente al muelle porque no es caro comparado con barcelona sino en el restaurante sa sequia a 400 metros tambien puedes aparcar. Repetiria! Translate this opinion into English.

fantastic. I loved the excursion. The boat driver Gian Luca was very nice and pleasant. Attentive to what we wanted to know and explained interesting details to us during the tour. The island of Espalmador is paradisiacal, with calm waters early in the morning. It reminded me of being lost in an atoll in the Maldives... You can park in the blue zone in front of the pier because it's not expensive compared to Barcelona, but you can also park at the Sa Sequia restaurant 400 meters away. I would repeat!

Muy bonito Espalmador y las cuevas. Mereció la pena 100%. Gianluca lo explicó todo claro, se notaba que conocía bien la zona y nos mostró todo lo que debíamos ver con muy buenas indicaciones.Muy atento y preparado, incluso tenia crema para las picaduras de medusa que nos vino muy bien cuando nos encontramos con una. Muy agradecidos y satisfechos con la experiencia. Translate this opinion into English.

Very nice Espalmador and the caves. It was 100% worth it. Gianluca explained everything clearly, it was obvious that he knew the area well and showed us everything we had to see with very good indications. Very attentive and prepared, he even had cream for jellyfish stings that came in handy when we met one. Very grateful and satisfied with the experience. Opinion translated. Show original.

La experiencia fue estupenda, fueron muy atentos, e hicieron el viaje inolvidable. Nos fueron indicando cada parada (muy bien elegidas por cierto), nos tomaron fotos en paisajes idílicos ayudándonos a inmortalizar cada momento y atrajeron distinta fauna marina para que pudiésemos aprovechar el snorkel al máximo. En resumen, experiencia obligatoria para disfrutar de Formentera en toda su esencia! Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was great, they were very attentive, and made the trip unforgettable. They indicated each stop to us (very well chosen by the way), they took photos of us in idyllic landscapes, helping us to immortalize each moment and they attracted different marine fauna so that we could take full advantage of snorkeling. In short, a mandatory experience to enjoy Formentera in all its essence! Opinion translated. Show original.
