Rebels boat party Ibiza in review

The Rebels boat parties, run by the lively promotional brand, Capadi Rebels, have been making waves since 2010. The company promises to deliver the finest in deep house, tech house and deep tech on their voyage with you, to create a vibe paramount to any other, and to bring out your inner rebel at sea. The party takes place on a beautiful catamaran with an intimate capacity of 150, leaving Marina Botafoch twice weekly to set sail for an unforgettable 5 hour fiesta around the island. My thoughts? Yes Please!

Sun cream on, well hydrated and energy levels at an all time high, I found myself excitedly waiting in Marina Botafoch of Ibiza Town with some other 100 rebels getting ready to board our party vessel. Sound systems being tweaked, canapés and cava being prepared, the Rebels flag blowing at the top of the mast, I was ready to get jiggy with it at high sea. Upon boarding, I was immediately welcomed by the friendly crew on board with a glass of refreshing white wine, and could hear some groovy, tech-y beats already vibrating out of the sound system, which was fuelling the anticipation of all boat revellers packing themselves on board.

Within minutes we were off the dock and had set the sail on our 5-hour journey. As with most celebrations, it always takes a little time to warm up the crowd, and Rebels resident DJ Randall M (Tini & the Gang) was doing that perfectly. Starting out his set with tracks like Since We Last Met (Ricardo Vilialobos Remix) and Smokey Blues (Julien Fuentes Remix) he swiftly set the mood and attracted partygoers to the dance floor right away. Wind in your hair, cranked beats, dancing under the sunshine out in the azure blue sea; it was a playground out on the water!

I decided to take a moment away from dancing and to take in the beautiful views of the Ibiza coastline and right away my glass was filled with cava once more; service was top notch! No one is getting away on this boat with an empty glass that?s for sure. Looking around, I realized everyone was riding that party wave with me. Smiles, dancing and deep groovy house from Randall M had taken over the rebels boat. The bass was so heavy; the fish underneath us were getting their dance on! This was a proper party.

A few hours into the voyage, and a few miles out into the Med, we got to our first point of anchorage. Tasty canapés were passed out, and I found myself jumping off the catamaran into the gorgeous sea. David Gtronic had switched onto the decks and was continuing with the wavy vibes and dropped tracks Paris 1 (Paranoid London) and Points (AFFKT & Danny Fiddo) that had the boat shaking. What a perfect way to spend an evening in Ibiza.

As darkness swallowed the sky our crossing back to shore felt like a whole new experience as the party became more intimate with people congregating within the deck area two stepping to Randall M & David Gtronic, now going back to back. Sunset behind us, the catamaran swiftly cut through the sea as we headed home to the white isle.

The Capadi Rebels succeeded in creating the island?s best underground boat party. They bring you the best in deep tech on the dance floor, around-the-clock hospitable service, on a beautiful spacious catamaran to enjoy panoramic views of the horizon. Mixing this into your party vacation will heighten your Ibiza experience to a whole new level.
