When is the best time to book ferry tickets from Dénia?

The best time to book your ferry tickets from Dénia to the Balearic Islands mainly depends on the time of year, whether you are traveling with a vehicle, and how flexible you are with your travel dates.

High season (June to August)

During the summer months, ferry routes between Dénia and the Balearic Islands are in very high demand, especially connections to Ibiza and Formentera. If you plan to travel between June and August, it’s best to book your ferry at least 1 month in advance.

If you are also bringing a car, motorcycle or camper van, we recommend booking even earlier, as garage spaces are limited and tend to sell out quickly on the busiest dates.

Mid and low season (autumn, winter and spring)

Between October and May, you'll generally find better availability, more stable prices and greater flexibility when choosing travel dates and departure times.

During months such as April, May and September, it's also common to find better deals and less crowded ferries, especially if you book a few weeks ahead.

Public holidays and long weekends

During high-demand periods such as Easter, national holidays or long summer weekends, we recommend booking your ferry tickets as soon as your travel dates are confirmed.

This is especially important on popular routes such as Dénia - Formentera, where ferries can fill up quickly during holiday periods and weekends.

Other ferry-related tips

1. When to reach the port: the port of Dénia can get quite busy, especially in the summer months, so we recommend you arrive at least 1.5 hr before your departure, especially if you travel with your vehicle
