Group travel to Formentera by ferry: bookings, tips and transfers
Heading to Formentera as a group? Hen and stag parties, weddings, company trips, school outings, sports teams or simply a group of friends: organising the ferry for lots of people is easier than it seems. Here is how to book, what to bear in mind and how to get everyone together from Ibiza airport to your accommodation.
How to book the ferry for a group
- Small groups: on proximoferry.com you compare every sailing between Ibiza and Formentera, enter the number of passengers and book online. Everyone gets their ticket on their phone.
- Large groups or special needs (lots of people, tight timings, outbound and return on different days, bulky luggage): message us on WhatsApp and we will help you organise it.
Tips for travelling to Formentera as a group
- Book early in summer. In July and August boats at peak times fill up. If you want to travel together on the same ferry, secure your seats as soon as possible.
- Choose your return time carefully. There are ferries from Formentera to Ibiza from early morning until night. Check the Ibiza – Formentera ferry timetable so you are not in a rush.
- Meet at the ferry terminal with time to spare. Ferries to Formentera leave from the Formentera ferry terminal in Ibiza port. With a group, arrive at least 30 minutes early.
- Residents in the group. If anyone in the group lives in the Balearic Islands, they can apply their resident discount. If you are unsure how to combine residents and non-residents, message us on WhatsApp.
- Save with FORMENTERA10. The discount code works on every booking at proximoferry.com, including group bookings.
Ideas for each type of group

- Weddings and events: coordinate your guests’ boats with the time of the celebration and plan the return to Ibiza.
- Companies and incentives: arrange the outbound and return trips at fixed times, plus the airport transfer, so nobody gets lost.
- Schools, clubs and sports teams: book early and let us know about any special needs, such as sports equipment or bulky luggage.
- Large families: children and babies get reduced fares with many ferry companies; when you enter passengers’ ages you will see the price for each one.
Private transfer for groups: from the airport to your accommodation
The most comfortable way to arrive as a group is a door-to-door private transfer: you are picked up at Ibiza airport, taken to the port, cross by ferry and dropped at your accommodation in Formentera, without moving luggage from one transport to another or waiting for taxis. There are vehicles for small groups and minibuses for larger ones. See Ibiza – Formentera private transfer.
If you prefer to organise it yourselves, check the options in from Ibiza airport to the port.
