What is a traditional llaüt boat?

A llaüt is a traditional wooden fishing and coastal boat commonly associated with Ibiza and the Balearic Islands. Its classic design creates a slower and more relaxed style of cruising compared to modern speedboats. Many guests choose this experience specifically for the authentic atmosphere and traditional appearance of the vessel.

Is the charter completely private?

The boat is reserved exclusively for your group, meaning no outside guests join during the trip. This creates a quieter and more flexible atmosphere throughout the experience. Private hire allows guests to relax, swim, and enjoy the coastline at their own pace while spending time only with friends or family.

What activities are included during the tour?

Guests can swim, snorkel, paddle board, or use the Scubajet during stops along the coastline. The floating platform also provides a comfortable area to relax on the water. Others may simply prefer to sunbathe onboard while enjoying the coastal scenery during the cruise.

How long are the boat trips available for?

The charter is available as either a shorter half-day style experience or a longer full-day cruise depending on the option selected during booking. Both options include coastal cruising, swimming stops, and use of the onboard equipment.

Where does the boat depart from?

Departure takes place from Club Nàutic Sant Antoni in San Antonio, Ibiza. Full meeting instructions are provided after booking confirmation. The marina area is easy to access and located close to nearby restaurants, beaches, and parking areas.

Is fuel included in the price?

Fuel costs are included as part of the private charter, so there are no additional fuel charges during the experience. This allows guests to relax and enjoy the trip without worrying about extra boating costs afterwards.

Can children join the experience?

Children from 4 years old can join when supervised by an adult throughout the charter. Families often enjoy the calmer pace and relaxed atmosphere onboard. Swimming stops and floating platforms also make the experience suitable for mixed age groups.

⛵ What to Expect

Guests meet the captain at Club Nàutic Sant Antoni before boarding a traditional wooden llaüt reserved exclusively for their group. After a short introduction and safety briefing, the boat departs along Ibiza’s coastline, passing rocky cliffs, hidden coves, caves, and clear turquoise bays that are difficult to fully appreciate from land.

The pace of the experience is calm and flexible, allowing guests to spend time swimming, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the scenery from the deck. Paddle boards, snorkelling equipment, and a Scubajet are available onboard for anyone wanting to explore the water more actively.
