Cala Bassa Beach Review

A stunning beach where luxury is the name of the game and the sea takes the prize for star attraction.

S'Arenal de San Antonio Beach Review

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.

Cala Llentia Beach Review

Cala Llentia is tucked into the south-west of Ibiza in a stretch of coastline that boasts some much bigger and much busier beaches. Cala Bassa, Cala Conta and Cala Tarida are all not far away but come the summer months these well-known beaches draw the crowds in a big way.

Cala Tarida Beach Review

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.

Cala Bassa Beach, East Ibiza

Arriving just after lunch I decided to explore this beach a little before sitting back, relaxing and listening to the gentle lapping of the waves on the shore.

Cala Conta Beach Review

The two beaches of Cala Conta and Cala Comte need little to no introduction, they are already famed throughout Ibiza and in San Antonio particularly for being two of the most stunning beaches in the immediate area.

Cala Codolar Beach Review

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.

Playa Pinet Beach Review

Playa Pinet has long been one of the best beaches in San Antonio bay, a beautiful spot with white sand and clear water but stunning though it is, this beach tended to be remembered for the atmosphere rather than it’s beauty.

Calo des Moro Beach Review

Situated right at the north end of San Antonio’s iconic Sunset Strip is this sandy little beach that’s often over looked.

Playa S'Estanyol Beach Review

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.

Pinta Xinxo Beach Review

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.

Look back on the old town of Ibiza from talamanca beach

Talamanca Beach Review

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.

Playa Xarraca Beach Review

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.

Cala Corral Beach Review

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.

Es Cavallet Beach Review

Es Cavallet, one of Ibiza’s most southern beaches is a beautiful place to spend a day. Golden sand, clear blue sea, views for days and no dress code, Es Cavallet is a winner.
