Location
A slow-sailing loop through the turquoise channels and pine-backed coves of Ibiza’s south-west coast.
Designed for readers, dreamers, and story-lovers, this route blends still waters, local culture, and easygoing exploration days for reading in the sun, wandering local markets, and toasting new friendships beneath the stars.
Itinerary
A quieter stretch of coastline, designed for stillness and discovery. The east coast itinerary explores peaceful calas, national parks, and hidden anchorages. With more space for rest, reflection, and barefoot wanderings, it’s ideal for guests who crave calm waters, natural beauty, and the freedom to unwind at their own pace.
Day One - Ibiza Town > Formentera
Check-in from 3 pm at Marina Ibiza, step aboard, and ease into island time with a welcome drink and a few words about the trip ahead. We’ll set sail in the late afternoon, a golden-hour glide across calm turquoise seas, arriving in Formentera just as the sky melts to pink. Dinner is served on deck, think grilled vegetables, local fish, crisp rosé followed by candlelit conversations beneath the stars.
Day Two - Formentera > Cala Jondal
Begin in the serenity of Illetes’ glass-clear lagoon, easing into the day with a light breakfast, swims, and barefoot calm. Set sail north toward Las Salinas, dropping anchor off the golden sands and spend the afternoon at Beso Beach Ibiza, where long lunches blend into barefoot afternoons and Balearic beats roll softly on the breeze. As the sun begins to sink, return onboard for a short sail to Cala Jondal, dining under the stars with local wine, sea air, and effortless connection.
Day Three - Cala Jondal > Cala d’Hort
Begin with a quiet breakfast and a sail along pine-lined coves toward Cala d’Hort, where Es Vedrà rises from the sea like a legend. Anchor by midday for reading, writing, or a swim in sapphire waters. For those longing for time on land wander ashore for local flavours along the beach restaurants. As the sun sets, gather for a toast and shared reflections before a final feast beneath the stars and the soft hum of the sea.
Day Four - Cala d’Hort > Ibiza Town
Morning light invites a last swim or quiet moments on deck before, one last sail back to Ibiza Town. Optional - explore Dalt Vila’s coffee shops and wine bars before heading to the airport for the return flight.

Just off Spain’s sun-soaked coast, the sister islands of Ibiza and Formentera offer the perfect balance of energy and ease. Ibiza’s golden coves, pine-covered hills, and bohemian charm set the stage for days that move at your own rhythm — whether that’s morning markets, lazy swims, or sunset dinners by the sea. A short ferry away, Formentera feels like a secret whispered between waves: barefoot beaches, turquoise shallows, and an irresistible sense of calm.
We want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable during our retreats, so here’s a little more detail about the accessibility of this boat: Catamarans can present some challenges when it comes to accessibility. There are steps required to access most areas on board, including the bedrooms and communal spaces. Additionally, when the boat is anchored (rather than docked), guests will be ferried to and from land using a tender—a small boat (think luxury dinghy)—which may be tricky to board for those with mobility issues. Because of these factors, we suggest handling accessibility requests on a case-by-case basis to ensure we can accommodate your individual needs wherever possible. If you have any accessibility concerns or would like to chat about your specific needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help make your retreat experience as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.

What our guests are saying about their stay
Pure magic! From the moment we arrived at the most breathtaking villa nestled in the rolling Tuscan hills, Meagan made sure every detail felt like it had been curated straight out of an Italian dream.
I attended the February Caribbean reading retreat and wish I could rate it higher than 5 stars! This was the best vacation I could have imagined. Not only was the resort amazing, the conversation and the ladies could not have been better.
I had such a lovely time on my retreat to Sicily. Megan is an amazing host who really looked after all of the group and made the trip feel like a fab holiday with friends. I went alone and everyone was lovely - I will happily book again next year. Book! You won't regret it.
