September 20 - ADVENTURE TO THE CAVE OF LIGHT

Cala d’Aubarca - At noon, sunlight enters the cave, creating an incredible light display.
With a depth of 12 meters, this unique location is one of the best spots for freediving on the island.
The adventure begins at 11:30 in the morning, near a small town called Sant Mateu. The trail descends towards the cave along a path that winds down the cliff, offering breathtaking views of the northwest coastline of the island.
Once we reach sea level, it will be time to don the freediving gear and immerse ourselves in the magic of the cave.

September 21 - FORMENTERA EXPEDITION

Cala Saona - A full day at sea.
We will explore two impressive cave galleries near Cala Saona, formed by storm erosion.
Hidden between the cliffs, these caves glisten with stunning turquoise waters, a sandy bottom 8 meters deep, and air-filled caverns, suitable for all levels.

Santa Eulalia del Rio - Our boat will depart from the village of Santa Eulalia and, after a 40-minute journey, we will reach our destination.
We will return in the afternoon, enjoy a refreshing shower, and conclude the day with a delicious dinner at home.

September 22 - NATURAL POOLS AND REEF

Cala Xarraca - A day to explore the northeast coast.
This scenic route will take us through sea caves and natural pools carved by sea erosion.
The true treasure awaits beneath the surface: the Blue Holes, an underwater gallery of interconnected tunnels where sunlight creates a surreal atmosphere.
With a depth of up to 10 meters, this unique ecosystem feels like a hidden world.

Sant Jordi de ses Salines - After our dive, a delicious meal will be waiting at home, followed by a talk about photography, where we will share our best photos, tips, and anecdotes.
To finish the day, we will enjoy dinner at one of our favorite local restaurants.

September 23 - FAREWELL TO OUR JOURNEY

Ibiza Airport - The final day has arrived, and we will enjoy breakfast together before bidding farewell to the island.
We must vacate the house before 11 a.m., allowing time to pack our bags and say goodbye.
It has been a pleasure to share the Ibiza we love, connecting with the sea and land.

Mar i Terra is a retreat established in Ibiza with a core mission: to connect with nature in all its forms through hiking and freediving.

This experience merges passions to present something truly unique, the first retreat in Ibiza that blends the tranquility of freediving with the thrill and adventure of hiking.

While hiking and freediving may appear distinct, they share a fundamental essence. Both activities immerse you in nature at its most pristine: free from external distractions, just you and the natural world.

It’s also a wonderful chance to experience solitude, far from the crowds, in secluded locations you might never have imagined. Participants will have the opportunity to explore the lesser-known side of Ibiza.

This retreat is the result of a collaboration between two local companies: ours and that of Sarah González Tur, a freediving instructor and founder of her own underwater project, Blue Heaven.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
