One site for the whole trip

Planning a few days on Formentera usually means a dozen open tabs: one ferry company's timetable, another's, the bus operator's PDF, a weather app, a beach list, a map. Formentera.com puts all of it in one place, so you only need one page open, before you travel and while you are on the island.

What you will find here

How we work

Every fact on the site is checked against primary sources: the Consell de Formentera, the ferry and bus operators, the state meteorological agency for the climate normals, the Balearic and Spanish tourism bodies for beach data and Open-Meteo for live weather. The sources behind each page are listed at the bottom of that page, every timetable shows when it was last checked, and anything that cannot be confirmed is left out.

For people who live here

Formentera.com is written for visitors, but the timetables, the bus map, the taxi page and the weather are the same information residents need every day. If something is wrong or missing, tell us and we will fix it.

Frequently asked questions

Is Formentera.com the official website of the island?
No. Formentera.com is independent of the Consell Insular de Formentera, which runs the island's official tourism site. It is the guide that puts the practical side in one place: timetables from every operator in one list, live weather and every beach and town in detail, with every fact checked against primary sources.
Can I book ferries or taxis through Formentera.com?
Not yet. We compile the published timetables and fares and link to each operator, and you book with the company directly. Tickets are issued by the operator.
How current is the information?
Every timetable, fare and seasonal rule on the site shows when it was last checked, and the sources behind each page are listed at the bottom of that page. Seasonal items such as the natural park vehicle fee and the summer driving authorisation are reviewed before each season.
Which languages is the site available in?
English, Spanish, Czech, Italian, German and French. Every page exists in all six, with the same facts in each.
