The Balearic Islands Port Authority (APB) Board of Directors has agreed to select Trasmapi's bid to grant an authorisation to provide the commercial nautical bus service in the Port of Eivissa at its most recent meeting, held last week in Palma.

The maritime transfer service runs from the Botafoc area to Eivissa town centre, in Plaça d'es Martell. This is an alternative to land transport which helps to reduce traffic congestion in the Port of Vila and minimise atmospheric pollution.

 

It was decided to continue providing this service due to the positive results obtained in previous years. In April, May and June 2023 alone, some 19,000 cruise passengers used this service, which meant the elimination of 760 bus journeys, including return journeys.
