Where we are

We are located at the entrance to the small “Es Bol Nou” beach, in the southern part of the island, very popular among Ibizans for its fine sand both in and out of its crystal-clear waters, and for being nestled between a picturesque red clay cliff that shelters it from the winds. This stretch of coast is divided into three beaches, one larger and two smaller, nudist ones. You can enjoy a rejuvenating clay bath at any of them. In the upper left area lies the “Phoenician Settlement”, the first Phoenician settlement on the island, dating from the 8th century B.C. The whole area has been a World Heritage Site since 1999 for its importance in the Phoenician expansion across the western Mediterranean. There are also former military installations converted into the museum of the Ses Salines Natural Park and Interpretation Centre, where you can walk through the underground corridors of the military batteries.

The fishermen’s port is the cove that gives its name to the whole area. Sa Caleta is a picturesque cluster of boat shacks where the fishermen keep their working boats and spend pleasant moments with their families. It is from this seafaring corner that the Pujolet family, the restaurant’s recipes and the famous Café Caleta all come. It is well worth a visit to get closer to the island’s seafaring traditions.

The area to the right of the beach can be walked all the way to Sa Punta des Jondal, a rocky headland that juts out into the sea. Strolling along the path, we come across two old constructions: a kiln for producing lime and a sitja (for charcoal production).
