Small beach, only usable in the winter because then it's cleared of tourists and boats. Soft sand mostly, nice grass field behind - good for rigging up in a wind sheltered place. There is enough space to safely launch the kite as well as landing. Best entry point on the right (when looking at the sea).

Wind is very unpredictable in Ibiza. An average of 2-4 times per week you will have wind usable for kiting (15knots and above). Best direction is SW and S (very onshore), and most common from October to May. SW gets accelerated and is here always a bit stronger than forecasted.

Access

Short walk |
Drive to St. Eulalia, pass through it, then stay close to the shoreside and drive towards Escanar. After a long straight, pass the white building with the yellow pacha flag then turn left at the camping sign. Keep going straight, do an s-curve, then bend right into a red mud road. Follow it to the beach. Theres no bus or public transport leading to that spot during winter.
Extra information
Please follow the rules from April until October sign posted on every beach.
