It depends on which operator you're sailing with — some ferries keep pets in your vehicle for the whole trip, while others have dedicated pet areas, kennels, or even pet-friendly cabins. Our Deal Finder lays out the options so you can pick the crossing that works for your pet.
There's a bit to know before travelling with a guide or assistance dog. Let our customer service team know in advance, or mention it to the ferry operator when you book, so everything's arranged ahead of time.
Carry any certification or documentation your dog needs, since you could be asked to show it at boarding or partway through the crossing.
Rules for guide dogs and assistance dogs can differ from general pet policy, even on sailings where pets aren't otherwise allowed. Reach out to our customer service team to check what applies to your sailing, or visit our Special Assistance Help page for more detail.

What you'll need to travel varies by route, so it pays to check ahead of your sailing.

Booking couldn't be simpler — select your departure port, arrival port and travel date to see everything on offer. From there, you can weigh up alternative routes and departure times to land on the best fit.
Look for early-booking deals and flexible fare types, like upgrades or flexi-tickets, which give you room to change plans later. Double-check details such as passenger numbers and vehicle specs as you go, to keep the booking process painless.
You'll get a confirmation email the moment your booking goes through. From there, how your boarding pass turns up depends on the operator.
Some operators send the boarding pass straight away, while others want you to check in at the port. Where it's on offer, online check-in through the Direct Ferries app can save you time at the terminal.
Ticket desks tend to sit right by the ferry terminal. Building in some extra time before you sail means you won't be rushed collecting tickets and getting checked in.
Have your confirmation email and valid photo ID — a passport or identity card — ready at check-in. If a pet's travelling with you, bring their vaccination and insurance papers, and hold onto proof of address if you booked with a resident discount.
A gap in sailings from Ibiza to Valencia on your chosen date usually comes down to something like a timetable adjustment, limited space, or a seasonal dip in service. Try a different date, or browse other options with our Route & Port finder.

The Spanish island of Ibiza is located in the Mediterranean Sea and is one of the Balearic Islands. It lies around 80 km off the coast of Valencia on the east coast of the Spanish mainland. Ibiza's main population centres are Ibiza Town, Sant Antoni de Portmany and Santa Eularia des Riu. The island's port can be found in Ibiza Town which is also a popular tourist destination in its own right. There are many beautiful things to see and do in Ibiza Town including Renaissance walled buildings, the Curia's house, Santa Domingo's church, the landlord's house, the Castle, the Modern Art Museum of Ibiza and the Necropolis Punica del Puig des Molins. So rich is the town's history it has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
As a result of its many nightclubs and bars, the island has gained a reputation for its summer club scene, with many people visiting the island just to experience its nightlife. However, visitors to Ibiza should expect more than just nightclubs. In addition to Ibiza Town, large parts of the island have also been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites which provides protection to these beautiful and important parts of the island from future development.
Ferries operate from Ibiza Town to Barcelona, Majorca, Dénia, Palma, Valencia and Formentera.
