Beaches

Ibiza’s countryside is certainly its greatest attraction. Covering an area of 572 square kilometres, the island has more than 18 kilometres of natural sandy beaches bathed by crystal clear waters, offering endless places for swimming and relaxing on beaches equipped with a huge range of services and different atmospheres.

The island’s beaches are absolutely beautiful, with clear, turquoise waters. The transparency of the seas around Ibiza is due to the meadows of Posidonia Oceanica (otherwise known as Neptune grass), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Their ecological and environmental value is enhanced by the remains of ancient civilisations to be found nearby, like the Phoenician settlement of Sa Caleta and the old watchtowers that stand along the entire coastline. Plus, you can practice all kinds of water sports on most of the beaches.
