We were not clear about the return schedules since the page shows schedules both for the return to the port of Ibiza and to playa bossa but then they told us that playa bossa was not working, they should inform them when getting off the ferry or leave only the schedules in the app of this season.

Tina, our host, and the whole crew of the ship were fantastic! The lunch was very good and much more than I expected. A wonderful day on the sea for sure. I highly recommend this tour!
