Setting Sail on a Mediterranean Dream

The sun was just beginning to rise over the horizon as I found myself on the beach of Ses Salines, ready to embark on a day of adventure and relaxation. The gentle hum of the waves and the salty breeze were a familiar comfort, reminiscent of my days spent surfing the Caribbean swells. As the captain and stewardess arrived in a small dinghy to whisk us away to the catamaran, I felt a thrill of excitement. This was going to be a day to remember.

The catamaran was a beauty, spacious and inviting, with plenty of room for our small group to spread out and enjoy the journey. As we set sail towards Formentera, the background music set the perfect tone for a chilled-out day on the water. The Mediterranean sun kissed our skin as we lounged on deck, sipping on cold drinks and soaking in the stunning views.

Exploring Formentera’s Hidden Gems

Our first stop was the paradisiacal Espalmador beach, a hidden gem that seemed almost too beautiful to be real. The water was a mesmerizing shade of turquoise, clear enough to see the sandy bottom even from the deck of the catamaran. I couldn’t resist the call of the ocean and quickly found myself snorkeling among the vibrant marine life.

After a leisurely swim, we made our way to Playa de Ses Illetes, a beach often hailed as one of the best in the world. The white sand was soft beneath my feet as I wandered along the shore, taking in the breathtaking scenery. We decided to dine at one of the beachside restaurants, indulging in delicious local cuisine while enjoying the panoramic views. Though the meal was on the pricier side, the experience was worth every penny.

A Toast to Unforgettable Memories

As the day began to wind down, we returned to the catamaran, where the captain had prepared a little surprise for us. With glasses of fizz in hand, we toasted to new friendships and unforgettable memories. The journey back to Ibiza was filled with laughter and camaraderie, as we shared stories and snacks, including a bottle of gin that another couple had brought along.

The sun set in a blaze of colors as we arrived back at Beso Beach Ibiza, marking the end of a perfect day. This catamaran adventure was more than just a boat trip; it was a celebration of life, a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us, and an invitation to embrace the carefree spirit of island living. If you find yourself in Sant Jordi de ses Salines, don’t miss the chance to experience this magical journey for yourself.
