Formentera is the smallest inhabited island of the Balearic archipelago and the only one without an airport. Every trip therefore ends with a boat: the short hop across from Ibiza, or a longer crossing from the Spanish mainland.
Arriving via Ibiza
Most visitors fly into Ibiza airport, transfer to the ferry terminal in Ibiza town and board a passenger ferry to La Savina. Several operators run the route, with departures every half hour or so in summer and a reduced winter timetable.
Arriving from the mainland
Seasonal ferry services connect Formentera with Dénia on the Valencian coast. Outside the season the mainland routes call at Ibiza first, so plan for a change there.
At the port of La Savina
La Savina is where the island begins: car, scooter and bicycle rental, the bus stops, taxis and the marina are all within a few minutes walk of the ferry berths.
