Route guide

Barcelona to Ibiza: compare the whole journey, not only the headline fare

Compare Barcelona to Ibiza ferry tickets with Baleària, GNV and Trasmed. Plan overnight or daytime crossings with cars, foot passengers, cabins and pets.

Balearic ferry schedules can change by season, vessel and intermediate port call. On multi-operator routes, compare the actual departure time, arrival time, accommodation, vehicle price and whether the itinerary is direct before choosing a ticket.

Travelling by ferry is particularly useful when you want your own car, motorcycle or more luggage on the island. It also avoids airport transfers and lets overnight sailings double as part of the journey.

Timetables can change between seasons and weekdays. Check the live result for the exact sailing date, vessel and check-in requirement before arranging tightly timed onward plans.

If you are connecting to accommodation, another ferry or ground transport, leave a sensible margin after the scheduled arrival. Weather, port traffic and boarding operations can occasionally affect the final timing.
