About this experience

Camel Riding in Cala Vadella is a guided camel trek along the shoreline of Cala Vadella, a sheltered bay on Ibiza's west coast. Riders mount trained camels for a paced route that follows the sand and shallow water edges, with views across the bay to the pine-clad cliffs. The activity operates from a fixed base near the beach, with sessions running daily during daylight hours.

What to expect

Sessions last 30 minutes, including a safety briefing and mounting assistance.
Each ride covers a 1.5-kilometre route along the beach and into the shallows, with a guide walking beside the camel.
Includes a camel saddle with back support and a helmet for riders aged 5 and over.
Riders can take their own photos during the ride, and a photo service is available at the end.
Suitable for families with children, couples, and solo travellers; maximum weight per rider is 100 kg.
The route passes the Cala Vadella beach bars and the rocky headland at the bay's southern end.
