The boat slips away from the marina and the coastline of Ibiza opens like a changing map of limestone cliffs and hidden hollows. Salt-slick wind pushes the bow as the crew points toward Port des Torrent, and the conversation on deck thins to the sound of water against hull and the occasional call of a seabird. The itinerary holds a long stop at Cala Bassa: clear shallows, rock shelves that invite snorkelers, and a pair of nearby caves that throw back echoes of the sea.
