Glass-bottomed catamarans from Santa Pola to Tabarca, with a stop in the marine reserve; open ticket, from March to October.

Viajes Isla Tabarca is a family company in Santa Pola founded in 1972, according to its website, which carries passengers to Tabarca under the name Catamarán Nueva Tabarca. It has three glass-bottomed catamarans, for 750 people in total, which leave from the Santa Pola Fishing Port, at Avenida de los Baños, 1.

## The boat and the crossing

The crossing takes about 25 minutes. On the way out, the catamaran stops for about ten minutes in the marine reserve so you can see the seabed through the four glass viewing windows in the hull, without getting wet or putting on any equipment; with the stop, the full journey is 35 to 40 minutes. The boat admits pushchairs and sets no luggage limit.

## Tickets and times

The return ticket costs €15 online for over-8s and €12 for ages 4 to 8; under-4s and dogs travel free. It is open: no fixed return time and valid for the whole season. If bought online, you board with the QR code through the priority queue.
