If nougat is back for Christmas, the Pukka Up Boat Party marks the start of summer in Ibiza. This is one of the best parties in Ibiza on a boat. This experience has become an Ibiza staple, a must-do event if you’re looking for leisure tourism.
You will also witness one of the island’s most beautiful phenomena: its sunsets. For hours you will sail to the rhythm of the best house tunes ever created as you leave San Antonio behind and head towards the horizon.
We hopped on a Pukka Up to tell you everything you need to know before buying a ticket for this party.
What is Pukka Up?
It all started in London 18 years ago. This boat party was founded in the city of Big Ben to give way to one of the biggest boat parties in the world. A year after its creation, it arrived in Ibiza to offer a unique experience on the high seas.
Although many have tried to imitate it, they have not been able to surpass it. With boats sailing from San Antonio, it offers the perfect combination of music, spectacular sunsets and an unrivalled atmosphere, making it a must-attend event for those looking to enjoy the essence of Ibiza.

“My friends and I had the best day, this really was one of the highlights of our holiday in Ibiza. I would highly recommend it. Lovely people, lovely staff great at everything. And the DJs were so sick ‘, says one of his clients.
