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.
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.
Where to sunbathe, swim and sip a cocktail
Our handpicked favourite beach clubs on the island of Ibiza
A diamond in the rough, a true hidden gem
The rugged coastline running north from San Antonio bay is a treasure trove of dramatic scenery and hidden coves, and Cala Yoga tucked into the cliffs at the base of Punta de sa Galera is an example of both these things. If you want to really feel like a local, get off the beaten track of tourist beaches and sea some beautiful views then head out exploring and find yourself at Cala Yoga.
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.
Luxury and sparkling waters at this beach near San Antonio
A stunning beach where luxury is the name of the game and the sea takes the prize for star attraction.
Something for everyone in south west Ibiza
The south-west of Ibiza is a stretch of coastline that is known for its exceptional beaches, you’ll find yourself falling over beautiful coves and stretches of sand in this stunning corner of the island. Hard as it may be for one beach to stand out amidst so many, Cala Vadella manages just that.
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 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.
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 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.
Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice puts Ibiza beach in at number 7

Busy twin beaches with stunning water and even better view
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.
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.
One of the most popular sunset spots on the island is definitely worth a visit
On a quiet Wednesday evening early in the season we decided that it was going to be a peach of a sunset and so heading to Benirras Beach in the north west was a definite on the days agenda.
Playa Pinet – life after Reggae
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.
An afternoon at this beach just west of San Antonio
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.
Two beautiful secluded coves in Port de Sant Miquel
Port de Sant Miquel has a lovely main beach that’s large enough to accommodate all the guests of its many imposing hotels and also provides every amenity those guests could require. But if serenity matters to you more than size and service, then you might want to take a wander to one of these two smaller and much calmer little beaches close by.
