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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A beach made for snorkelers and explorers
The area south of San Antonio Bay is simply littered with beaches worth visiting and you’d have to holiday here for longer than a week to spend a full day at each of them. But one little beach that should be on your itinerary, if only for a few hours, is quiet, pebbly little Cala Moli located in between the busier neighbouring beaches of Cala Tarida and Cala Vedella.
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.
A beautiful, relaxed, gay friendly beach with official naturist status
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.
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 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 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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
