Guests meet at the harbour of San Antonio for check-in with the Oceanbeat team. After a short welcome and introduction, travelers receive all important information about the day before the VIP shuttle transfer begins.
A comfortable VIP shuttle takes guests from San Antonio to Playa den Bossa in about 20 minutes. This transfer allows the tour to start from Ibiza’s south coast, creating a much shorter and smoother boat journey to Formentera.
At the famous Playa den Bossa beach, guests meet their tour guide at Vanilla Beach. Here the boat boarding begins and the crew welcomes everyone on board with a welcome drink while explaining the itinerary of the day.
The boat departs and cruises along the beautiful coastline of Ibiza. During the approximately one-hour crossing, guests can enjoy breakfast, coffee, beer, and soft drinks while relaxing on deck. Travelers can take photos, enjoy the scenery, and sometimes even spot dolphins.
During the cruise, guests enjoy panoramic views of the legendary rock island Es Vedrà, one of Ibiza’s most famous natural landmarks. Travelers can take photos while hearing stories and legends about this mystical island.
The boat anchors near the small paradise island of Espalmador. Guests can swim in crystal-clear waters, go snorkeling, relax on board, or use stand-up paddle boards to explore the area.
The tour continues to the famous Ses Illetes beach area. Guests can swim in turquoise water, snorkel, relax on the beach, or explore the surroundings. Food is served on board while guests enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and music.
Guests arrive at the harbour of Formentera and enjoy approximately 5 to 6 hours of free time on the island. Visitors can rent scooters or bicycles, explore the island’s famous white beaches, go shopping, or relax at beach clubs and restaurants.

On the day of the activity, we went to the meeting point that appeared on the ticket and the website. When we arrived, we found two other people waiting, and no one showed up. The company informed us that there had been an error and that they had changed the meeting point at the last minute. We ended up not going on the boat because of their disastrous management; furthermore, we went to the meeting point and were waiting like absolute idiots. I have never felt so deceived, scammed, and belittled in my life.
A total scam. They changed the meeting point and no one notified us. The phone number you can call is inoperative... a huge disappointment... waiting for them to refund the reservation amount for 7 people... and if that is not the case, we will take the appropriate measures.
DO NOT TRUST THEM!!!! We have booked for 7 people. No one came to pick us up at the meeting point you get when you make the reservation because supposedly the meeting point has been changed and they "forgot" to notify us. What a shame. The only day we could. Thanks for nothing. !!!
They never showed up, wasted our morning on some excuse about them not updating the meeting point. Avoid at all costs, refund in process and I expect compensation from Viator.
My two friends and I + another couple waited 1.5 hours for the driver and were hung up on several times by "Oceanbeat Ibiza" over the phone. In addition, we wrote to their TripAdvisor chatbot, where we were promised that this would be cleared up. However, nothing happened here. After 1.5 hours, the information finally came from "Oceanbeat Ibiza" that the excursion was not taking place. We had been looking forward to the excursion so much. This was very disappointing.
A terrible experience; the operator changed the time, location, and activity of our tour just one day beforehand—everything was significantly downgraded. We were left stranded at the departure port and lost a day of our vacation. I do not recommend them due to their irresponsibility.
I would like to rate this boat tour neither good nor bad. But I would like to warn future vacationers. Make sure that you also get what you book here. We also wanted to spend the day on this small boat (which is pictured) and ended up in front of a huge party catamaran. When we brought this up, we were dismissed with the words "we are change the Boat" and they were done with us. When we were then also told on the boat that we should stand because we did not pay an extra €100 for a sun lounger (the loungers cost €100 even below deck), we decided to leave this mass processing. So make sure that you also get what you booked. Because the excursion mentioned here is certainly beautiful and we would have definitely enjoyed it as well. P.S. It starts with you receiving a message informing you that the departure location is changing. ;-) Have a nice vacation
Everything okay except for the paella, which was not paella
The food is weak, little variety, and also very poor quality. The drinks, just the beer and the water. Besides, friendly and friendly staff
I booked a tour for myself and 7 friends through the Viator app. I followed Viator's instructions regarding the meeting point, and on the scheduled day and time, nobody showed up. I tried contacting them in every way possible – by phone, WhatsApp, and Viator's chat – but received no response. Besides losing money, I also lost a day of the planned tour. Only after some time did I receive a response from Viator and the company informing me that my tour would be canceled due to weather problems (it was a beautiful, sunny day) and that my money would be refunded. To this day, I remain at a loss. I do not recommend them!!!!
