- Formentera - You can see a lot in 8 hours!
Finally managed to make it across to our sister island of Formentera for today’s vlog. Over the past weeks/months it’s been on/off if travel between Ibiza and Formentera for tourism purposes was allowed! Today it was so I jumped in my car, jumped on the ferry and spent the day there.
I only scratch the surface of this beautiful island, but I hope it inspires you to visit yourself and perhaps spend a little longer there.
I hope you enjoy.
Nick

This was literally tv programme standard. Amazing presenting, edits and images of the maps etc. Absolutely quality!
Wow thanks Peter for the comments ! Great to hear you enjoyed...... it’s a stunning island 🏝
The second lighthouse you showed features in the Chris Rea video for the song On The Beach.
I never knew that - thanks for the info
That brought back some great memories Nick. Also, nice to see Illetes without the superyachts lined up obscuring the view :)
Yes your right there - not very often Illetes can be see like that! I will have to do a before and after in the summer time
Another great video , thanks Nick . I just love the whole place! 😎👍😎
Cheers James 👍
Thanks Nick. Excellent vlog.
Thanks Phil, it’s a stunning place and enjoyed making this one - next time I’ll stay overnight
Great video Nick, really enjoyed it. Love Formentera always well worth a visit. Illetes is my favourite beach, but can get too busy in the summer. Looked like you had it to yourself 👍.
Very lucky that so few people were there, Illetes can get a little over crowded in the high season months - but you cant blame the people for wanting to visit such a stunning place!
Great video! Going tomorrow and doing some last minute research. Thanks for the help!
I hope you enjoyed and the vlog was of some use
Fantastic Nick, great editing and information, very good. Love Formentera, nice to see more of it here Thanks 👍😎
Thanks Dave, many people visit ibiza frequently but haven’t made it to Formetera. Hoping this shows how easy / worth the short trip 👍
@@NickIbizahire Thanks Nick I’ve been once but didn’t get to see so much ! PayPal support sent to you recently hope you received it?! 👍😎
Your best Vlog to date Nick. Great combination of information and stunning images.
Got a trip to Ibiza booked for October and really fancy a speedboat over to Formentera. I’ll make sure I contact you to book.
Thanks Tony - had fun making this one and the scenery of Formentera makes it easy for great images! A little cloudy in the morning but it is March so not complaining. No problems about the boat just let me know closer to the time :) Nick
Watched this vlog more than once Nick. Paused, scrolled and viewed. Glad you took the drone with you for some really great shots.
Would have to agree that Playa de Ses Illetes is paradise. By far the best beach I’ve ever been on.
Day tripping to Formentera on the ferry is ok, but I found you need 2-3 days on the island to be able to fully appreciate it.
Sigue viviendo mi sueño 🦎
Thanks Keith :) Happy use of the drone for the first time was in Formentera - I took extra caution. Appreciate the coffee by the way:) 2/3 days is for sure the best way to see the island - I have never spent the night in Formentera
Great vid, i did Illetes beach on a day trip in Sept 2019, was heavenly swimming in the clear blue waters. Thanks for this 😎👍
Appreciate the comments Stevie - thanks
Awesome place thanks nick
Glad you enjoyed it
What a great overview of Formentera. I have to confess that I have yet to visit in 20 years of going to Ibiza! I keep saying “maybe next year” but this has whetted my appetite for going as I hadn’t realised there was so much to see. Thanks for that!
Hi Anne, don’t worry I’m almost the same! 20 years and only my third time! Hole you do make it across I’m sure you would enjoy - a long weekend / over night stay would be ideal
mostly like yr Drones and yr " I want to give best quality" (du gibst dir SO Mühe moves me).thanx
Went on a day trip when on honeymoon back in 2008! Stunning place and wish we had stayed a few days to explore. Hoping you do some videos over Easter! Be interesting to see what happens on the island! Loving these videos, making lockdown U.K. more enjoyable 🤣🤣
Hi Nicola, glad you are enjoying and can see a little of the Ibiza sunshine through the screen ha ha. Yes for sure I will be out and about over Easter - thanks for watching
Looks fabulous! Thank You ✌️
I hope you get to visit soon
Hi Nick ,been watching the vlogs regularly from Skipton in North Yorkshire but actually watched this latest one from Es Cana in Ibiza. We love Ibiza and it's great to be back.
Awesome, thank you! Great to hear you made it out here. Certainly worth the effort - I think you left before the rain arrived
@@NickIbizahire no we're still here till Monday keep doing yr vlogs we love to see them .
great vid, much better than the norm. We are visiting in October ( fingers crossed)
Thanks 😊 I enjoyed making that one
Great video of a beautiful island 👌🏻
Totally agree with you - Formetera is beautiful
Great job. Thanks xx
Thank you 🙏🏼 appreciate that
Excellent video, great editing
Thank you Gerard! This one took a while ha ha! Now my drone is back great to make use of it - especially in Formentera
Nick really enjoyed that one never been there before but definitely want to now 😎
That’s great to hear - it is a stunning place and you won’t be disappointed
Ses Illetes is stunning.
I’d love to visit in June if everything goes well.
Take care.
Fingers crossed for you - really hope you get to enjoy 😊
Great video Nick! Nice to see Formentera, I have been there myself twice :) You have to do another Formentera video this summer! cheers Johan
For sure I will - happy not too many people around as when the drone comes out paranoia kicks in with some people ha ha. Great to see it so quiet
@@NickIbizahire hahaha yeah flying the drone in the middle of the summer on the beach in Formentera would have created some chaos :) Would have been fun though :P
Tolle Videos!! Weiter so 👍
I love it!👌
Formetera is a paradise :) the water is amazing
Amazing 👍🏼
Thank you 🙏🏼
Good job!! Cheers mate
Glad it helped
Fabulous blog. I’m visiting early October. Will fiend a day on Firmentera. ❤️🩹
I hope you enjoy Anna - its a stunning place. Let me know how you get on
Great vlog!
Thank you 🙏🏼 appreciate that - hope we can go again soon 👍
Hi Nick, great video, thank you, loved it!! We are planning a trip to Formentera this summer and look forward to visiting this little paradise. It will be crowded we can imagine. We are beach lovers, so for overnight accommodations, restaurants and shopping close to which beach do you recommend we stay?😉
Hello from sweden.nice video😃🥰
Thank you 🤗 hello Sweden 🇸🇪
We went to Formentera for 3 days with my husband and daughter and it was amazing! Wish I could've stayed more. We stayed at Playa es Pujols and it has great shops, a nice beach and great restaurants. Ses Illetes I think was my favorite though and Pilar de La Mola.
Hi Diane - Formentera is an amazing place….. in all the years I have been here I have never stayed over night!
Great video
Thanks!
Magic!
Its a magical island :)
Qué guay, cómo mola!
Qué bien sentarían unas vacaciones ahora allí.
Por cierto, no tienes ningún vídeo subtitulado al español?
Saludos!!😉
Hola,
Si mira en una computadora, debería poder seleccionar subtítulos en español
Saludos :)
Went to Formentera 20 years ago, day trip from Ibiza. Natural baron landscape and nice beaches....8 hours was plenty enough!.
It will have changed a little over the years but still keeping its rustic charm
What a stunning place !!
Jeeezeee you could of said you were in somewhere totally different with some of them beach shots especially the last place lol
Great footage today aswell mate 👍
But you clearly made a mistake you said you can have a beer or a coffee depending on what time it is ....... 👀every hour in ibiza or Spain is beer o'clock haha
Also surely your boats are free to loyal subscribers?
Great video mate keep up the awesome work 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sure is and only 30 mins by ferry :) Very true about the beer/coffee - in Spain people are on the brandy for breakfast! Free - I wish I could be guaranteed best prices I can do :) Thanks for watching as always
Hi Nick, thank you for this vlog. Can’t wait being there next week. Juste a little question about drone : is there any specific rules in formentera about places or something you cannot fly over ? Restricted area ?
Hi Peter I’m sure you will have a great time as it’s a stunning island. Formentera is quite close close to the airport flight path but according to my DJI there are no off limit area in Formetera
Caribbean and Maldives have to keep their game up. With Formentera right on the UK shores, many will be rediscovering this gorgeous paradise.
Agreed - an unspoilt paradise in Europe

Hello Philippines
Great video Nick. Just what I wanted to know about getting my girlfriend and 3 year old daughter for a day on illetes beach. Thank you we're coming next month
Hey Stephen, thanks for the comment - did you make it across to Formentera? What did you think
@@NickIbizahire Hi Nick, thank you so much for replying to me. We came back from another fantastic holiday in Ibiza last Thursday. After watching your video, we took the car down to the docks, couldn't find the ticket office but the harbour staff let us drive on and pay onboard (we were on the big ferry). Drove to Illeyetes Beach firstly which was shut to cars so we got directions to Cala Saona. This beach was fantastic, I was out about 50 meters and still only waist deep. Where Ibiza's coastline is quite rocky in parts, Ibiza's little sister Formentera makes up for it with amazing beaches. Thanks Nick, will keep in touch mate
Love all the vids m8 love formentera Been Ibiza every year the last 20 years missed the place since covid that brings me to a question I have for you the lastime I was there I got a speeding ticket and it didn’t get paid any idea how I can pay it ? Iv lost the ticket and didn’t wanna get stung next time I go coz I’m definitely coming bk love the place I dnt speak the lingo so trying online has been hard for me keep up the good work m8 👍
Thanks Leon, cheers for watching. About the ticket - id contact the car hire place, usually would go back to them and they would chase you up. If you haven't heard I wouldn't worry too much.
Hi Nick, again a very very interesting video and I like your cool music. How long do you stay yet in Ibiza? I'll come asap. Viele Grüße Peter PS.: If I would have a son, he should look like similar as you.
Happy you enjoyed Peter - thank you! I have been here almost 20 years!!! a long time
The natural reserve in Formentera deserves a vlog by itself...
Yes for sure - could easily spend a week vlogging there
WoW👌👍😎
Cheers Rob! Have you been to Formetera?
Uoooohhhh nice
Thanks Tronca
Skyline webcams have the cam on Formentera. Only managed a short visit to the island.
Thanks Jim
Done part of this last year on moped with our friend Lisssaaa
Loved it 😘
Didn’t like the tree that jumped out on me 🤣
But can’t wait to go back and explore some more.
That is awesome! Formentera by scooter is an experience
@@NickIbizahire it certainly was in so many ways.
Great memories with great friends, that’s what life should be about,at some point this will all be over and we can carry on where we left of 😊🍺🙏🏻
Random question how much is a taxi from airport to es cana
I’d say 35-40€ 👍
Cool man!! The video turned out very good and informative. I'll be there July 3, if you have any tips or maybe unique opportunities. Would love to see a comment 🌴😎
Hi Daan, 3rd of July is very soon - thats great. My tips would be hot air balloon - amazing. Boat excursion at sunset from San Antonio or a day charter to Formentera. If I can help please email me at nick@ibizahire.com
Hi, do they allow pets on these beaches? Thanks
As a general rule - In the summer months no but in the winter months yes. This is the case in Ibiza and I guess its the same in Formentera. Dont blame me if you get in trouble for taking your dogs there ha ha
@@NickIbizahire Thank you. I'm making plans to live there a few months out the year.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🖐️😎
🙏🏼
Ill be there 8th june! Lets have a drink together, im a solo traveller 😎
Hey Woopie, enjoy your time amigo! You will love the island. If I can help with any tips just let me know.
@@NickIbizahire hey! Do you know the best way to get from the port of savina to the beach ses illetas and back? Cheers!
Terribly boring
Did you watch until the end?
