Cala Corral, South West Ibiza
A small port area that boasts some good sunbathing opportunities
Not the lush white sand beach that we know and love in Ibiza, and not a pebble beach either...this small port is the perfect place to get away from the crowds on the south-west coast.
A small cove with rocks and boat sheds where you can explore the coastline and find a small secluded area to spend your day by the sparkling clear waters of the Ibizan coast.
Setting & Location
Located on the south-west coast of Ibiza in a stretch of coastline that is home to some stunning beaches such as Cala Bassa, Cala Conta and Cala Tarida.
Water Safety & Clarity
The sea here is calm and crystal clear however Cala Corral doesn’t have many facilities, there is no lifeguard on duty, no shops, restaurants, showers, or watersports centres. However there are toilets available at the marina as well as a cold drink vending machine.
Beach Quality
Not really a beach, the area where you would expect to see sand is covered in a rather soft, dry layer of old seaweed. Still comfortable enough to lay down your towel.
Watersports Nearby
The rocks and slipways make excellent rock-pooling and crab hunting territory and the sea is crystal clear, bright blue and extremely tempting.
Snorkelers will love the rocky seabed and shelves of rock that are home to an abundance of sea life.
Explorers, adventurers and hikers could spend all day navigating the cliffs in either direction, a rough path to the south takes you past some truly beautiful villas perches along the cliffs whilst a short walk north takes you to the Ibiza Stonehenge monument.
Or if you don’t fancy all the exertion just lay back and watch the boats come and go in peace at this non-traditional and very quiet beach.
Directions
You can access Cala Corral via road; parking is available beside the marina, or via foot along the cliffs from either of its neighbouring beaches.
