9 beaches to discover on Ibiza

Ibiza is best known for its beaches, but beyond the crowded shores and busy beach clubs lies something even more magical: quiet coves, peaceful waters, and hidden chiringuitos where the only soundtrack is the sound of the sea. Whether you’re looking for solitude, great food by the waves, or the perfect snorkel spot – the island has a beach for every mood.

Here are 9 of our handpicked favourites, each offering a different way to enjoy Ibiza’s coastline.

Quiet beaches to escape

1. Es Canaret – Rugged, Remote, Remarkable

Tucked away on Ibiza’s northern coast, Es Canaret is a hidden gem known for its untouched beauty. The path to get there takes some effort, but that’s exactly why it remains so peaceful. The cove, lined with pebbles and rocks, has crystal-clear water that’s perfect for a swim or a quiet snorkel session. Bring good shoes, your snorkel gear, and something to sit on – there’s no beach bar, only calm.

2. Es Caló de s’Illa – Where the countryside meets the coast

Surrounded by pine-covered cliffs and thick greenery, Es Caló de s’Illa feels like a secret corner of the island. Getting there means a scenic drive through the countryside, which only adds to the sense of arrival. The beach is small and intimate, with shallow waters ideal for cooling off on a hot day. It’s a peaceful retreat for anyone in search of silence.

3. Pou des Lleó – Red cliffs

With its striking red cliffs, Pou des Lleó is a beautiful example of where land meets sea at its best. Park near Hostal Pou des Lleó and walk along the left side of the coast until you find your perfect spot to lay down your towel and unwind by the shallow, clear waters.
Don’t expect a sandy beach here; just flat rocks and natural seaweed “mattresses” that make for a unique, laid-back place to relax.

Beaches to swim & snorkel – Into the blue

1. Cala Xarraca – Family-friendly and full of life

The largest beach near Portinatx, Cala Xarraca is sandy, scenic, and great for all ages. Its clear waters are excellent for snorkelling, and the nearby beach restaurant serves both full meals and simple takeaway bocadillos. With easy access and beautiful surroundings, it’s a great day trip from the finca.

2. Cala d’en Serra – Hidden waters, quiet views

This peaceful beach is surrounded by dramatic cliffs and feels wonderfully secluded, especially outside the season. The calm, clear sea makes it a fantastic place to snorkel and spot marine life. With its rustic charm and relaxed atmosphere, Cala d’en Serra is ideal for those wanting to dive into nature.

3. Cala Mastella – A tranquil cove with underwater surprises

On the eastern side of the island, Cala Mastella is a small and peaceful cove with calm, shallow waters – ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Beneath the surface, a surprising variety of marine life awaits. The quiet, green setting makes it a perfect escape for slow beach days.

From Shore to Table: Beach Restaurants

1. Chiringuito Cala Xuclar – Feet in the sand, fish on your plate

This cosy beachside chiringuito is only open during the summer months, and it’s a true hidden treasure. Nestled in the sand at Cala Xuclar, it’s known for its fresh fish dishes, relaxed vibe, and beautiful sunset views. Tables are limited and demand is high, so be sure to book ahead for the full barefoot dining experience.

2. Restaurante S’Illot de Rencli – For seafood lovers

Overlooking the calm bay of S’Illot de Rencli, this charming restaurant is the place to go for their signature fish soup and other fresh catches of the day. The setting – just above a small, rocky beach – is peaceful and picturesque. Don’t miss the traditional fishermen’s huts nearby, perfect for a quiet moment after lunch.

3. Chiringuito Cala Olivera – Ibiza as the locals know it

On Ibiza’s east coast, Cala Olivera is a lesser-known cove surrounded by rugged cliffs and wild beauty. The beach bar here is a favourite loved by locals. Come for the grilled sardines, stay for the relaxed atmosphere, chilled drinks, and sea views. It’s a no-fuss kind of place that captures the island’s authentic charm.
