Cala Escorxada for tourists in search of tranquillity

Travellers looking for peace and quiet should choose Cala Escorxada, one of the most isolated coves on the island. Here, nature reigns supreme, tourists can be counted on the fingers of one hand, and water sports facilities give way to flourishing foliage... Although a little bit of a challenge, getting to Cala Escorxada is well worth the effort: it can be reached by kayak from Galdana beach along a 4km path with little shade. A taxi-boat has recently started operating between the beach and the port of Galdana on a regular basis. Check the timetable before you set off.

Coll Baix beach for nature lovers

Ibiza

Cala d’Hort, ideal for families

More known for its nightlife than for its natural surroundings, Ibiza is a unique place with some extremely beautiful spots, such as Cala d'Hort. Located in the municipality of Sant Josep de Sa Taiala, it is divided into two distinct parts. On the one hand, there is a beach with fine white sand, and on the other, a much rockier cove. Cala d'Hort is perfectly suited to families, with its numerous watersports facilities and beach equipment for hire. Its crystal-clear waters are home to a rich and diverse fauna, much to the delight of snorkelers.

Formentera

Platja de Es Arenals for total disconnection
