Mahón to Ibiza Ferry: Trasmed via Palma, No Change of Ship
With Balearia · 1 weekly departure · 10:30 hours
There is no direct ferry from Mahón to Ibiza. Trasmed runs a single line that leaves Mahón, calls at Palma and continues to Ibiza, without you having to change ships.
The frequency is low and there is no departure every day. Before planning the trip, check the timetable to see which day the ship sails in the week you want to travel.
It is a long crossing with an overnight leg, so booking a cabin is the usual choice. If you need more departure days, you can combine Ciutadella-Alcudia and Palma-Ibiza.
Balearic residents get a resident discount on the passenger fare, not on the car.
Mahón to Ibiza ferry timetable
The first thing to look at here is not the time but the day: this line does not sail daily. In the timetable above you can see the dates with a ship, the departure time from Mahón and the arrival time in Ibiza.
The stop in Palma
The ship calls at Palma to disembark and embark passengers and cars. You can stay on board; if you get off, come back before the departure time set by the ferry company.

Indicative schedules and subject to variation by the ferry company for operational reasons without prior notice.

Mahón Ibiza ferry with a car
Trasmed takes cars on this line. When booking, enter the vehicle type and exact dimensions; if you exceed the usual ones or are towing a trailer, check with the ferry company first.
Car authorisation in Ibiza in summer
Between 1 June and 30 September, the Consell d'Eivissa limits the circulation of cars on the island and requires prior authorisation for non-residents' cars. It is processed online at ibizacircular.es and control is by number plate reading, so the details must be correct.
If you live in Menorca or Mallorca, the Consell exempts you from the quota and you pay no fee, but the procedure at ibizacircular.es may still be necessary: check before boarding. Cars with a return ticket with the same ferry company and motorbikes do not need it.
Mahón Ibiza ferry with a dog
Trasmed accepts pets in an adapted cabin, a seat (under 8 kg, in a carrier) or kennels. Bring an up-to-date health booklet.
On such a long crossing with an overnight leg, the adapted cabin is the most comfortable for the animal. Add the pet when booking. More in travelling by ferry with a dog.
