Glide Ibiza’s Shallow Seas: Sea Scooter Rides at Playa d'en Bossa

Q: What is included in the price?

The operator provides a life jacket; the price includes fuel and taxes and a scheduled photo stop.

On Ibiza’s southeast shore, Playa d’en Bossa offers wide sand, clear water and a different kind of sea access: the Sea scooter experience. Based in Eivissa, Illes Balears, the operation meets guests at Playa d´en Bossa delante del Hotel Garbi and runs a compact 30‑minute outing that gives non-divers a chance to pilot a surface‑skimming, handheld sea scooter into shallow coastal waters.

Strap into a flotation vest, ease into the Mediterranean and feel the scooter push you forward as the shoreline slips past. The shallow shelf off Playa d’en Bossa reveals sandy flats, scattered rock ledges and bands of Posidonia seagrass—an essential local habitat that supports small fish, cuttlefish and crustaceans. Riders pause for a short photo stop to frame the coastline from sea level, then coast along clear water where sunlight ripples across the seabed.

This trip is intentionally simple and inclusive. Operators supply a life jacket; the price includes fuel and taxes and the only prerequisites are a minimum age of 16 and basic swimming ability. Guests should arrive ten minutes early for a safety briefing and QR check‑in. Bring swimwear, water and strong sunscreen; phones are allowed for photos but should be secured against spray.

What makes this offering stand out on Ibiza is its immediacy. Rather than a long boat transfer or a dive certification, the Sea scooter lets first‑time explorers and families with older teens sample underwater sights quickly and comfortably. It’s an excellent complement to beach days in Eivissa—an energetic way to connect with the sea without committing to a full dive lesson.

There’s a cultural edge to the setting: the coastline here has long supported local fishing and summer tourism, and Playa d’en Bossa is one of the island’s most visited beaches. The brief scooter run highlights the fragile marine environment—riders are asked to avoid disturbing seagrass beds and marine life to protect local biodiversity.

Practical for short itineraries, this Sea scooter outing works well as a mid‑day adventure between beach time and evenings in town. Expect gentle conditions, friendly staff and a snapshot of Ibiza’s underwater edge that’s equal parts easy fun and a reminder of why preserving coastal waters matters. Book in advance for peak season and get ready to glide.

Groups often pair the ride with nearby shore snorkeling or a beachfront lunch; timing it for early morning reduces boat traffic and offers calm seas. The operator includes brief safety demonstration in Spanish and other languages when available; check languages at booking. Note that children under 16 are not permitted and participants should disclose any medical conditions during check‑in. For travelers based in Eivissa, the short transfer time makes this a convenient half‑day option, maximizing time on land and water.
