10 Hidden Beaches and Coves in Ibiza You Can Only Discover by Boat
Ibiza is home to more than world-famous beaches and lively beach clubs. Along its rugged coastline are dozens of hidden coves where the water is crystal clear, the atmosphere is peaceful, and nature remains untouched. Many of these places are difficult—or even impossible—to reach by land, making a private boat charter the ideal way to experience them.
Departing from Santa Eulària des Riu with La Mar 2.0, you can spend the day exploring Ibiza’s most spectacular corners at your own pace.
1. Cala Olivera
Nestled between rocky cliffs, Cala Olivera is one of Ibiza’s best-kept secrets. Its calm turquoise waters make it perfect for swimming, paddleboarding and snorkelling.
2. Cala d’en Serra
Located in the north of Ibiza, Cala d’en Serra is a small, picturesque bay surrounded by dramatic cliffs. Arriving by boat lets you enjoy its beauty before the beach fills up during summer.
3. Cala Boix
Known for its dark sand and impressive cliffs, Cala Boix offers a completely different landscape from the island’s typical white sandy beaches.
4. Es Canaret
A quiet cove with crystal-clear water and very limited access by road. By boat, it becomes an ideal stop for a peaceful swim.
5. Tagomago Island
Just off Ibiza’s east coast lies Tagomago, a protected island surrounded by transparent waters. It is one of the best places for snorkelling and enjoying nature away from the crowds.
6. Cala Xarraca
Famous for its turquoise water and excellent visibility, Cala Xarraca is perfect for swimming and discovering marine life.
7. Atlantis (Sa Pedrera)
Although technically accessible on foot, the steep hike makes access difficult. Approaching Atlantis by boat is much easier and offers spectacular views of this unique rock formation.
8. Cala Llentrisca
One of Ibiza’s quietest coves, Cala Llentrisca is ideal for visitors seeking tranquillity and natural beauty.
9. Punta Galera
This unusual rocky coastline is famous for its flat stone platforms and incredible sunsets. It is a fantastic place to anchor for an afternoon swim.
10. Espalmador
Between Ibiza and Formentera lies the small island of Espalmador. Its white sand and shallow turquoise waters are often compared to the Caribbean.
