How much does the ferry from Valencia to Ibiza cost?

"How much is the ferry ticket from Valencia to Ibiza?" has several answers, because the operators price the slow boat and the fast boat differently, charge separately for vehicles and cabins, and raise fares in high season. Haqqi Tours arranges the current cost for your travel date and party - foot passengers, car, seats or cabin - in a few minutes of receiving the form, and tells you which sailing is the best value.

The figure we send is the total: passengers, vehicle, seats or cabin and port fees. If a slower sailing an hour later is cheaper, we say so; on this route the conventional ferry is often the best value for a family.

Cheapest ferry ticket from Valencia to Ibiza: how to pay less

Getting the lowest fare on the ferry from Valencia to Ibiza is a matter of vessel, timing and flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds you a cheap ferry ticket:

• Ask about children's, student and resident fares, and about vehicle offers outside high season
• Choose the conventional ferry over the high-speed boat when time allows - it is cheaper, steadier and often more scenic
• Book early for July, August, Easter and holiday weekends, when sailings sell out and fares rise
• Travel on a weekday - Friday and Sunday sailings carry the highest fares
• Tell us if your dates are flexible; moving by a day frequently changes the fare
• Compare operators - on this route the cheapest company changes with the date

When you fill in the form, say if you can move your dates. We compare the sailings around them and send the cheapest Valencia to Ibiza ferry first, then the alternatives.

Timetable and season of the Valencia to Ibiza ferry

6-7 days a week - that is how often the ferry from Valencia to Ibiza runs, with more departures in summer and fewer, sometimes weather-dependent, in winter. Allow about 5 hours 30 minutes at sea plus check-in at the port. Timetables change between seasons, so we send the exact departures for your dates rather than a list that may be out of date.

If a sailing is cancelled by the shipping line for weather, you are rebooked on the next available or refunded; our WhatsApp desk handles that for you on the day.

Departure: Port of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals)

The ferry from Valencia to Ibiza leaves from Port of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals), in Valencia - Valencia is the home of paella, the City of Arts and Sciences and a beach on the edge of the old town. Foot passengers should be at the port 45 to 60 minutes before departure; vehicles normally 60 to 90 minutes, earlier on international crossings where passports are checked. Getting there: Metrovalencia lines 3 and 5 link the airport with the centre in about 25 minutes and suit a central hotel with light luggage; a private car is simpler for the beach hotels, the Albufera, a family with luggage, or a coastal trip to Cullera, Denia or Benidorm.

• Keep the e-ticket and the ID or passport used for booking together
• Luggage is carried free within the shipping line's limits; large bags go on the racks or the car deck
• Cafés, kiosks and waiting halls at Port of Valencia (Baleària and Trasmed terminals); some fast boats board only minutes before sailing
• Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Valencia to the port on request

Arrival: Ibiza port (Botafoc)

The ferry docks at Ibiza port (Botafoc) - Ibiza is the Balearic island of Dalt Vila's walls, the beach clubs and the quiet north. From the pier you are minutes from taxis, buses and the town itself. Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from the port to your hotel in Ibiza with a driver waiting at the exit, which for a family with bags is the easiest way to finish the Valencia to Ibiza crossing.

Arriving late? We note your arrival and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the ferry, so a delay costs you nothing.

On board the Valencia to Ibiza ferry: seats, cabins, cars and luggage

What is the Valencia to Ibiza ferry like on board? Conventional car ferries with cabins, with airline-style seats, lounges, a café or restaurant and open decks on the larger ships; overnight vessels add cabins with beds and showers. Cars, motorbikes and bicycles travel on the vehicle deck and you go up to the passenger decks for the crossing. Luggage is not weighed; you keep it with you or on the racks. Haqqi Tours explains the seat and cabin options for the exact ship you are booking so you pay for what you will use.

• Cabins with beds and showers on overnight sailings - two to four berths
• Café, bar or restaurant on most vessels; open decks on the conventional ferries
• Vehicles on the car deck - give us the car's length and height when booking
• Children's fares by age; infants usually free

Things to do in Ibiza after the ferry

Ibiza is the Balearic island of Dalt Vila's walls, the beach clubs and the quiet north. Start with Es Vedra rock and Cala d'Hort, the sunset over San Antonio bay and the Hippy Market at Es Canar, then Ses Salines natural park and Cala Salada cove. A tip from our desk: Give your airline, flight number and the exact hotel or villa name, and note that many fincas in the country are on narrow tracks; if you are also taking the ferry to Formentera, let us know your ferry time so we can plan the timing.

Haqqi Tours can provide guided tours, tickets, transfers and private drivers in Ibiza; ask when you book the ferry and we send the options.

Best time to take the ferry from Valencia to Ibiza

The ferry from Valencia to Ibiza runs all year on most operators, but not equally: summer brings the most sailings and the highest fares, shoulder months the best balance, winter a reduced service. July and August are hot, crowded and the busiest for traffic, especially on the airport road on Saturdays; June, September and early October are warm with fewer people, and winter is quiet with many resort businesses closed. Whatever the month, booking early is the single biggest saving, especially with a car or a cabin.

Ferry or flight from Valencia to Ibiza?

For most travellers on this route the ferry is the better way: it leaves from the port in Valencia and lands you in Ibiza itself, carries as much luggage as you can wheel and the car, and turns the journey into part of the holiday. A flight only wins when the crossing is long and time is short. Haqqi Tours arranges flights too, and says honestly which is better for your dates.

Return ferry from Ibiza to Valencia

We book the return crossing from Ibiza to Valencia just as easily, typically on the same confirmation. Round-trip fares and open returns are cheaper on many operators, so booking both directions together saves money. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.
