Which route is right for me?
Dénia is the fastest crossing at just over two hours – ideal if you’re coming from the Costa Blanca or the Alicante/Valencia area and don’t want to spend the night on board. The high-speed ferries “Eleanor Roosevelt” and “Ramón Llull” operate here.
Valencia is in the middle range: around five to six hours, often as a comfortable overnight crossing with a cabin – you set off in the evening and wake up in Ibiza.
Barcelona is the longest route (around nine hours), but convenient for travellers from Catalonia and the north. Traditionally, it’s an overnight crossing there and a relaxed daytime crossing back.
All connections take cars, motorcycles and bicycles – with no luggage limit. Exact departure times and prices depend on the season and the ship and can be seen in real time in the booking system.
