One of the only beaches in Ibiza that can actually lay claim to providing conditions good enough to surf, the dramatic backdrop of Cala Nova is unspoilt and rustic with a long arc of dark golden sand surrounded by rocky red cliffs and pine-clad hills. While the water is quite shallow, it does have a tendency to have quite strong rips so take care when swimming.

This pretty little contoured beach with white sand is located within a fragrant valley of pine trees. The smooth, sparkling turquoise water of Cala Llenya make it ideal for swimmers of all levels of experience – as it’s quite shallow for a great distance, it’s a great place for kids to play. It’s also the perfect place to set up camp for the entire day, with picnic areas beneath the pine trees, plus resort-style beach restaurants offering something for everyone.

A long stretch of dark golden sand dominated by striking rocky cliffs, Aguas Blancas – one of the few ‘official’ naturist beaches in Ibiza – is a picture perfect example of Ibiza’s unspoiled northeastern coast. The turquoise waters are reasonably shallow and great for swimming, with plenty of caves and rocks to explore if you dare. When the wind is up, foamy white waves lap at the shore hence the name, translating to white waters.

An aging beach bar on Es Figurel beach has been taken over by a group of friends who, after giving it a gentle polish, have transformed it into a fully fledged Mediterranean kitchen – with a hint of Mexico and Japan, merging flavours from Italy, Guatemala and the Nordics. Focusing on island-sourced ingredients, adding a minimum intervention on the raw materials, the food is sublime. Natural wines are served, mainly made by small producers from the Balearic, with grapes grown through organic farming. Tel: +34 971 32 69 91 | www.nudoibiza.com
