License-free boating in Ibiza: the local waters
Setting off from Eivissa harbour or Marina Botafoch, Talamanca bay is perfect slow-boat territory: sheltered water, a pale sandy bottom and easy anchoring right off the beach. Hugging the coast southwards brings Figueretas and then Playa d'en Bossa within comfortable reach; on the Sant Antoni side, operators tend to point you towards Cala Gració and Cala Bassa, a short hop from the harbour. At 5 knots, you savour the scenery rather than rush past it.
Most operators restrict you to the bay you depart from and rule out any crossing to Formentera, far too long for this kind of boat. Book the morning slot: the thermal breeze often builds in the afternoon and kicks up a tiring chop. Local rules differ from the French framework; each listing states whether the boat can be hired licence-free, with the operator's briefing included.
