What an amazing afternoon. 4 hours of absolute bliss. Would really recommend. Great handover from the guys, lots of information. The boat had a cool box, life jackets and a really well stocked first aid box. We sailed over to Cala Conte and then made our way back past Cala Bassa and then carried on over to San An by Cafe del Mar for the sunset out at sea. One of the highlights of our visit. Thank you.

We had a fantastic experience on the boat and couldn’t thank the owners enough for accommodating us on short notice. Explained everything about how to drive the boat to 1st aid measures and also where was good to go to get the most out of our boating experience.
Can highly recommend this excursion and this company.

We decided to book this thanks to reviews posted previously. The contact via email from Holly (Manager) was very quick and very precise and explained everything to a tee. The whole process of booking the experience and instructions about sailing the boat was smooth and made me feel very safe. Safety is considered to be a priority with this experience and all the items you need are on the boat. We hired from 4:30pm until sunset and had a fabulous time. I fully recommend doing this. Thank you.

We hired a half day on one of the Yellowboats which you can take out without any form of license. The handover process was relatively simple - all controls/rules/guides were well explained. The boats appear well maintained and have all the basic equipment you would want.
The boat itself is perfectly adequate and fast enough for pootling around the coastline, which is all we wanted to do with it. At one point we ventured slightly further from the coast on a slightly more exposed area and the sea got a lot more choppy very quickly...so you wouldn't want to go too far out especially if it is windy.
We ended up cruising into one of the numerous caves and swimming around for a bit. Our 9 & 11 year old children loved the fact that they could have a go on the steering and drop anchor. You see another side of the coastline and things that you cannot see from the land.
It was slightly awkward getting back into the boat from the water for us as the previous hirers had lost the mini-ladder due to be replaced...HINT: take care of and don't lose the ladder!!
The water is amazingly clear and you can see fish and other things swimming around your feet. You can also see some lovely beaches where the water is an incredible shade of aquamarine....absolutely lovely. One of the best things is that you choose where to go and what to see independently...no having to follow the crowd as part of a tour.
We were slightly unlucky with the weather - it was an overcast day and we had a couple of light showers but I would do it again regardless of the weather.
I would recommend:
- taking some ice for the icebox;
- taking the boat for a whole day if you can;
- taking the boat for the sunset experience if you only have half a day;
- taking some snorkelling gear / waterproof camera and going for a swim.
Overall - not a cheap experience but I felt it was good value for what it was and I would absolutely do it again.

You better avoid this unprofessionell "boat company"
It was the worst day of my life, there is not enough space to post anything in here.......anyways, if you start a boat trip with them, pray for your life in advance

estimada clienta . lamentamos que no le haya parecido grata la experiencia . con respecto al consumo extra de gasolina , ya informamos en la descripción de la excursión que no está incluida en el precio y que su coste es de 20 € extras . el área de navegación de los barcos sin licencia está limitado por motivos de seguridad en españa a no alejarse más de 5 millas de la costa , por ese motivo en la descripción de la exvusrsion ya incluimos un mapa con los destinos que usted puede visitar

I have held off writing this review while we tried to deal with the company. However having been dealt with so poorly, I feel it is only fair to let other know and warn them not to book.
My husband was injured from a screw that was not secure on the boat when we hired it’s t the start of July. He had to go to hospital and was unable to enjoy the rest of our holiday.
We were refused a refund for our very short trip and directed to the company’s insurance. The insurers have now only offered to pay the hospital fees - no refund for our nightmare trip that lasted only 30 minutes.
My husband has been left with a scar and no compensation for being unable to get in the water for the rest of our holiday.
Do not book, the boats are unsafe. Imagine if this had been a child.

We had a problem with the anchor at a certain moment this one got stuck (at a place where anchoring was permitted). The compagny send us 3 kids on a boat without license and without any equipment to help us out (piracy). THEY decided to cut the robe of the anchor and leave it there (without leaving any indication of the location of the anchor) so this is also polution and An obstacle for other boats. When we came back the staff was ordent by the boss to charge us 150 eur for a New anchor with a store value of 30eur! Saying that we lost the anchor. They Don’t inform you How to use any of the equipment upfront and they didn’t send us any professional help When we were stuck. This compagny is a SCAM and very UNPROFESSIONAL. The staff at the port was very friendly tough but didn’t have any say in the matter. There are many boat rental compagnies in Ibiza so I would advice to pick An other one!

Was running a bit late for 10am collection of the boat,contacted the company’s WhatsApp which was handy, the lad I was chatting to was extremely friendly and said no problem at all and gave me the name of the English we would meet on arrival. When we arrived she was jolly and friendly even though we left her waiting some time .. once the paperwork was done and H&S precautions explained we were off.....and what an experience we had ..one of the small boats with canopy ,it was powerful enough that we never felt like crawling along or taking ages to reach the next cove or beach etc.. the anchor was handy when we wanted to go for a swim ..the steering wheel made it fun to drive/sail..all in all it was a super experience,got sun without even realizing it and defo felt like value for money .. the 2 of us paid €180 for a half day so that’s €90 each:less each than we would spend on a handful of beers in some of the clubs there!

Overall this was the best part of our Ibiza trip! Our day started out a little rough as we had a hard time finding the office. I would recommend allowing some extra time for this. You will need to go around the building, into a gated door, and upstairs. Sometimes the door locks too. We did arrive half an hour late, but the staff was very accommodating and helpful! It was not an issue, and we still were able to go out on the water.
Our captain’s name was Josh. We nicknamed him Captain Josh Sparrow! He knew the waters well, and all the spots of interest along our trip. He told us all about the legends of Es Vedra and Atlantis. He took us snorkling and pointed out the best places to do this along our route. He also gave us options as to where we wanted to go swimming. He very patiently went along with our asking him to take pictures of our entire group as well! We brought our own snacks and drinks. Josh and his boss also let us know while we were checking in that there was a good supermarket nearby. A couple of my friends visited that while I finished checking us on. The food was perfect for a day on the boat, and the tour has a cooler you can use if you like.
On our way back to the harbor, he asked if we wanted to go tubing. We didn’t even realize this was an option! None of us had been tubing in years! He asked us all if we wanted a fast or slower ride and took great care of us. He did insist we wore life vests and made sure we wore them properly. We later learned it was his first day with the company. We were shocked! He did such a great job and was very personable the entire day! We cannot say enough good things about Josh, and we highly suggest you book this company and him as your captain. He has spent some time on the island and will show you caves and tell you some interesting stories of Es Vedra. He speaks multiple languages and spoke English very well. Don't forget to tip! Awesome day!!

Kind regards
