The truth is that we can think of a better plan to spend those dream vacations. And is that renting a boat in this wonderful island will make you never want to set foot on land again and you will live an unforgettable sailing day.

Where are the best areas to rent a boat in Formentera?

As you may already know, Formentera is a fairly small island. To give you an idea, the maximum distance from one point to another does not reach 15.5 miles (25 km), so it will not take you many hours to cross it and renting a boat in any of the places that we are going to tell you will give you the possibility to make very similar routes. Although it all depends on the time you want to spend on board and the type of rental you do.

• La Savina: this place is the largest nucleus of ships that you will find on the island and, therefore, one of the areas where that ship that will make your summer the most is moored. Sailing from here is almost a must, as you won't find a similar port in the whole island, take our word for it. You can't get an idea of the amount of offers there are, from small boats to tour the places and the nearest beaches such as the Levante, to sailboats and catamarans to explore the rest of the Pitiusas Islands. If you rent the boat for a few hours, you can reach the islet of Espalmador and even tour the south of Ibiza.

• Es Pujols: this beach in the north of the island is the favorite one for everyone who comes to visit Formentera. And no wonder! Because its crystal-clear waters and white sand make you look wrapped in a movie landscape. But there is something much better than enjoying this place from the mainland: renting a boat that takes you to visit all the secret corners of the island from the sea. Being a few miles away from La Savina, the sailing options are very similar, although we have to tell you that the size of the island allows you to travel practically the whole island if you rent a boat for a whole day.

• Mitjorn Beach: if what you are looking for is a boat with a small capacity and live a more quiet and private evening, here you will find everything you are looking for. This beach is located south of the island and has perfect boats to rent for a few hours and tour much of the coast. You can choose a skippered rental that will take you to the best places and the most exclusive coves, or surprise your family and friends by becoming a skipper for a day. Either way, we are completely sure that you will spend an unforgettable day, as you will be able to access places like Caló d'Es mort until you reach Cala Saona, where you will have the opportunity to get off the boat and have a drink at its beach bar.

What boats for renting are there in Formentera?

+ Catamarans: it is the most demanded option by all those who can’t wait to sail the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean, as it has a super stable structure that will make you feel the maximum comfort at all times. In addition, its capacity can vary, although it is best to choose one that fits about 10 people and be able to share this experience with your loved ones.

+ Yachts: Surely it is not the first time you have seen those huge yachts anchoring in Cala Saona and you have wished to get on board one of them. Well, don’t wait any longer! Because you will have the opportunity to choose the one that best suits your tastes and spend a few days full of luxury and glamor. Undoubtedly, a yacht will make you the envy of everyone who sees you and it will be very difficult to beat your experience at sea. After this, everything will seem less.

+ Sailboats: for lovers of sailing, you can’t miss the option of renting a large sailboat to go all over the Mediterranean. The best thing about this type of rental is that it is perfect to spend several days at sea or even weeks, as you can get to know all the Balearic Islands and dock at any port. Or anchor on a beach to sleep and spend the best nights of the summer.

+ Motorboats: the fact that this type of motorboat is the last of our boats does not diminish its importance. In fact, it is another of everyone's favorite options, since in addition to being a cheaper rental, its small dimensions allow everyone with a sailing license to take the helm. And the best part! You will be able to access beaches that would be quite complicated to reach with a larger boat.

What license do I need to rent a boat in Formentera?

At this point, surely you are already imagining the feeling of the sea breeze caressing you and the water refreshing you, you are already very close to experience something like that! You only need to know which are the types of boats you can choose depending on whether you have a sailing license or not, or if you are looking for a rental with or without skipper.

- With license: we assure you that there is something that can greatly improve the rental of a boat, and that is that you yourself are the skipper. This will be possible thanks to the different sailing licenses, since not all vessels can be driven with any type of license. With the "titulín" or Navigation License you will be able to rent boats up to 6 meters in length either sailing or motor, or 8 meters if you have the Basic Skipper License. And if you want to live a big experience, your Recreational Boats Skipper License will allow you to select sailing vessels up to 15 meters in length, but not more than 12 miles away.

- Without a license: if you want to experience for the first time what it is like to be at the controls of a boat that does not exceed 5 meters in length, you can do it without the need for a license. Of course, as long as you are of legal age. For the rest you don't have to worry, just enjoy yourself to the fullest and become the best skipper!

And for those who want to spend several days at sea and go out to discover the island beyond, there is always the option of getting on board of a sailing boat, yacht or catamaran with skipper. This way you can choose a boat with greater capacity and get as far away from the coast as you want. Undoubtedly an unforgettable experience that will allow you to get to know the greatness of our islands.

When is the best time of the year to rent a boat in Formentera?

Although you may think that summer is the only time when you can do this activity, you may be a bit wrong. It is true that summer is the perfect time to rent boats and catamarans, but who says that during the rest of the year you can't do it? The best thing about Formentera is that its location means that the temperature is always pleasant and the sea is calm.
