Platjas de Ses Illetes

Platjas de Ses Illetes Review

The closest beach to the port at La Savina is an exquisitely beautiful string of dunes stretching to the tip of the Trucador peninsula at Es Pau. Collectively called Ses Illetes, they form part of a National Park. Ibiza clubbers like to take the fast ferry over from Eivissa after a hard night's rave and chill out here, tapping the sun for the energy to rave again; this sort of photosynthesis is especially popular with young Italian tourists. The water is fairly shallow, and the meadows of seagrass in it shelter colorful varieties of small fish; the fairly constant breezes are good for windsurfing. Nude and topless sunbathing raises no eyebrows anywhere along the dunes. Be warned: there's no shade here at all, and rented umbrellas fetch premium prices. Amenities: food and drink, lifeguards, showers, toilets, watersports. Best for: snorkeling, swimming, windsurfing, nudists.
