Surrounded by beautiful cliffs, Es Torrent is an unspoiled beach made up of mostly pebbles and a very small strip of sand. Not for day-partiers or disco bunnies, you’ll spy signs in various languages that expressly forbid radios and beach balls, making Es Torrent the perfect playa for those who need to a quiet day to de-stress. Silence is golden! The clear blue water is perfect for swimming and snorkeling.

To discover this hidden paradise, enter along a wooden walkway between two rustic, red cliffs – it literally feels like stepping into another world. The soft golden sand, clear blue skies, sparkling sea and a rocky headland (where you’ll find plenty of nudists!) keeping Sa Caleta protected from the wind await your arrival. The clear waters are very shallow and great for both snorkelers and safe for children. There are ancient Phoenician ruins on the same property, one of the first ever settlements that have been world heritage listed and well worth a look.

Quite possibly one of the most iconic of all Ibiza beaches, Las Salinas is a long expanse of soft golden sand surrounded by a nature reserve including sand dunes, pine forests and spectacular salt flats. The sea is particularly salty here, which makes it incredibly easy to stay afloat when swimming. Dotted with famous chiringuitos, DJs spin Balearic beats until the sun goes down and dancers parade along the shore promoting the island’s famous nightlife.
