Sailing to Ibiza for the First Time!
We finally set sail to Ibiza for the first time! In this episode, we explore the charming town of Sant Eulalia (Santa Eulària), with its beautiful streets, marina, and relaxed vibe.
After a few wonderful days, a southerly swell forces us to make a move. We head back to our favourite island — Formentera — and anchor in the stunning turquoise waters off Es Pujols. This picture-perfect bay and lively seaside town made the perfect escape.
Come along as we sail between these two beautiful Balearic Islands, enjoy the views, and find our perfect anchorage.
Locations:
• Sant Eulalia, Ibiza
• Es Pujols, Formentera
If you're planning a sailing trip to Ibiza or Formentera, this video will give you a great feel for both places!
