Ibiza Beaches
You will find a variety of some of
the most beautiful, unspoilt beaches in the whole of
the Mediterranean here on the island of Ibiza. Most
of them are readily accessible, either on foot, by car
and bike or by public transport. Some lie in small protected
bays; the more remote ones you can visit by boat, which
operate regular ferry services from a number of landing
points around the island.
In time we will have a special section
dedicated to itemise every beach on the island by giving
precise details with pictures of exact locations, the
size, facilities and activities that are available on
each of the beaches around this unique island.
However, this will obviously require
a great deal of time and labour so for now it's our
initial intention to simply list the names of the beaches
and their whereabouts as we start to travel anticlockwise
around the island of Ibiza.
