Come back to sunbathe, to enjoy yourself again, to discover, to dream… The white island embraces us with its amazing sunsets, its turquoise waters, its friendly atmosphere and its colourful people.
Once you enter into the aura of the island you won’t want to leave. And, to make your visit even better, we want to share with you 4 moments you have to experience to enjoy Ibiza to the fullest.
Es Xarco: Swimming in a Unique Cove on the Coast of Sant Josep
Close your eyes and imagine the beach of your dreams. It will probably be a beach with few people, surrounded by nature and washed by crystalline waters. True? And if we tell you that this beach exists and you can find it in Ibiza? Well yes. Something similar to this paradise you’ve imagined is the cozy little beach cove of Es Xarco, in the south of the island, in the municipality of Sant Josep. It is one of the coves that best reflects the charms of Ibiza, surrounded by pine trees and fishermen’s huts. As well, due to its location, you can also enjoy other nearby beaches such as Es Jondal and Sa Caleta. You’ll definitely will love it.
The Sundown: Watching the Sunset From the Beach of Cala Comte
Coming to Ibiza and not seeing the sunset from Platges de Comte should be considered a crime. For many people farewelling the sun is a magical moment, and Cala Comte is the perfect place. The tones acquired by the sky as the sun goes down will make you have an incredible feeling of peace and relaxation. In fact there are several ways to enjoy the sunset in Ibiza. You may want to enjoy a refreshing cocktail at one of the fantastic restaurants along the beach or you may prefer to watch it from the beach shore and feel the gentle waves on your feet. Of course, both options will make you fall in love with the island even more.
A Restaurant Experience: Dining in an Authentic Beach Bar
There is no doubt that if you spend the day at the beach, a beach bar is absolutely essential to round off the day. In Ibiza, the beach bars are so varied that there is room for all tastes and kinds. You can find from the small beach bar of yesteryear where to have a beer and a bag of crisps, to great restaurants offering fresh seafood and rice dishes and, of course, the well-known beach clubs. These last ones get the perfect mix between relax and party in the coolest way. Who doesn’t dream of lying on a Balinese bed on the beach with a glass of refreshing sangria? With infinite views to the Mediterranean coast, the scent of the sea and feeling the fine sand on your feet and the soft breeze… Long live the chiringuitos!
Ibiza Town: Strolling Through Dalt Vila
Another unforgettable moment you can enjoy on the island is to get lost by the bastions of the old city of Ibiza town, known as Dalt Vila, declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1999. It is considered one of the best preserved walled cities in the world full of bulwarks that make it a pleasure to stroll around them. The best way to enjoy this experience is to go up the cobblestoned streets that will show you places full of life, typical Mediterranean whitewashed houses, plazas full of colour and flowers, walls marked by the passage of history and different viewpoints where you’ll be amazed with the wonderful views that the height of walls offer. You will also find charming boutique shops where you will find the typical white shirts, dresses and garments that define very well the essence of Ibiza.
