A town centre beach with whiter sand & a little more charm
Playa es Pouet is easy walking distance from the centre of San Antonio and yet infinitely more appealing than its larger neighbour the main beach S’Arenal de San Antonio.
A little hidden beach and lounge bar looking out over San Antonio
If you’re looking for a little hideaway that’s not too far from the town but feels a world away then head to Serral beach in the Sant Joseph area of the San Antonio bay.
White sandy beach perfect for families
Nestled in the thickly forested hills at the far north of the island lies Port de Sant Miquel, a busy purpose-built resort town and pretty beach that is perfect for a relaxing family holiday.
A slice of paradise in Ibiza’s southwest
Neighbouring beach Cala Conta tends to get all the hype for being the stunning beach in this area and there’s no denying that it is truly beautiful but with that reputation comes the crowds, so if you’re looking for something a little quieter, a little less well known but just as beautiful then keep on going until you find tiny, perfect Cala Codolar.
Where to sunbathe, swim and sip a cocktail
Our handpicked favourite beach clubs on the island of Ibiza
Stunning UNESCO protected stretch of soft sand & crystal clear water
Las Salinas beach has long been listed as one of Ibiza’s top beaches, it’s long and wide with powder soft sand, luxury beach lounges and a backing of sand dunes and pine trees, not to mention its best feature – the crystal clear, strikingly blue sea with unhampered views out over the open ocean. Salinas is quite simply stunning.
See and be seen on Ibiza town’s best beach
Talamanca is arguably the nicest beach within walking distance of Ibiza Town. There’s not much to pick between it and Figueretes at the other end but with just a little more seclusion and a touch more sophistication Talamanca wins out as the beach for those in the know.
A beautiful cove with a stunning hidden secret
To experience some beautiful areas of Ibiza’s coastline you need to get yourselves up to the north of the island. Far more rugged in nature and much less built up than the populated south, northern Ibiza is home to a collection of small coves hemmed in by rugged cliffs with steep descents and views out to nothing but ocean.
Best spot in San Antonio town for sunset swimming & snorkelling
Situated right at the north end of San Antonio’s iconic Sunset Strip is this sandy little beach that’s often over looked.
An often ignored little beach at the far end of San Antonio bay
Many beaches dot the coastline of San Antonio Bay and Punta Xinxo is the very last of them. The furthest away from the main town and consequently one of the least visited in the bay, it’s not very large and its neighbour Pinet beach is noticeably prettier and livelier and so tends to draw more people.
Peace and quiet at this beach with a difference
Cala Corral is not a beach in the traditional sense but is no less beautiful for being a little unique. 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.
San Antonio's city beach with plenty of entertainment
San Antonio’s main beach Playa de S’Arenal, is as close to the main town as you could wish to be. It is a long way from being one of Ibiza’s top beaches but it is central, accessible, youthful and has every amenity you could wish for; lifeguards to lounges, bouncy castles to burger king, S’Arenal has got you covered.
A beach of three halves, within walking distance from San Antonio
Not to be confused with the ‘hidden’ beach S’Estanyol on the east of the island, this one is much larger, much more accessible and located over on the west coast in the San Antonio bay.
A beach designed for adventurers, explorers & deep sea divers
Located only half an hour outside of San Antonio, but rarely visited by tourists, this under the radar beach is popular with Spanish families and locals and they are more than happy to keep it their little secret. A beautiful beach dotted with rocks for climbing and jumping off and with a healthy scattering of beach lounges and restaurants, this beach is a great spot to spend a day with the family.
A day out on the open roads of the south & south west of Ibiza
Deciding to venture further a field along the south coast of Ibiza I made the choice to hire a moped (scooter) for the day, hoping to find it an easier way to travel around than on public transport.
The beach that’ll be anything you want it to be
Before you arrive in Ibiza you’ll probably already have heard about Playa d’en Bossa, a stretch of beach resort packed full of tourists, hotels, bars, beach clubs and lounges with DJ’s spinning tunes all day as buckets of cocktails, champagne and top shelf Vodka are downed on cabana beds stretching as far as the eye can see.
Stunning beaches set in crystal clear sapphire water
I have found my new happy place and it's called Cala Saladeta on the south-west coast of the island of Ibiza.
Two stunning beaches an easy walk from San Antonio
These two pristine beaches are as beautiful as you will find any where in Ibiza, and they are an easy walk from the main town of San Antonio but feel a whole world away.
