Beaches in Santa Eulalia del Rio

Without a doubt, the beaches of Santa Eulalia are known all over the world, both for their variety and for their beauty. You should not miss the following:

S’Estanyol (Niu Blau)

It´s as small as it is unique. S’Estanyol beach is 20 meters wide and 150 meters long, nestled between pine forests. The natural shady areas make this beach ideal to go to with babies and young children. There are three restaurants on this beach, each catering to very different tastes: the traditional, the chic and the laid back. You will know which is which, is when you get there.

Es Canar

This is a very family-friendly beach and a perfect place to enjoy all sorts of water sport activities and general beach fun. It is 400 metres long and is part of the town of Es Canar which is very popular among tourists from all over the world during the summer season, and which also hosts its famous Wednesday Hippy Market in Punta Arabí.

Cala Llonga

This beach is very popular amongst both tourists and locals, especially for families. It’s very wide, which allows for plenty of sandy areas to play on for the little ones. Also, it conveniently has many restaurants, cafes and supermarkets right on its doorstep.

Es Figueral

This beach surprises with its capacity, being 45 meters wide and more than 400 meters long. It is very popular amongst surfers and stand-up paddle fans, and those who prefer the northern shores to the, often overcrowded, southern beaches.

Aguas Blancas

Its name comes from the color of the foam of the waves. Its sand is a toasted colour and its stunning surrounding landscape will remain etched in your memory for a long time. Aguas Blancas is famous for its waves, its crystalline waters, its Chiringito beach bar and its lovely open views. It’s not the most ideal beach to get to with children and elderly, as it requires a short hike (or many stairs) to get to it from the car parking areas.

Sol d’En Serra

One of the most photographed beaches in Ibiza and is very close to Cala Llonga. Sol d’En Serra will surprises by its crystalline waters, jagged cliffs and the sensation of being on a natural beach away from the maddening crowds. The beach Club Amante sits on the top of its rocky cliffs.

Los Enamorados

Los Enamorados is a beach club in its most loose term... as in reality, it is a lot more.

It's a restaurant and a boutique hotel and has become a favourite amongst those who treasure culinary excellence, sea views, style and a bohemian spirit. Aptly named Los Enamorados, which in English means Lovers, it is probably one of the most romantic settings in Ibiza.

Taco Paco

This is, without a doubt, the best Mexican Restaurant on the island. But Taco Paco is also much more than that.
