Ibiza has been recognised as the party central for decades. It boasts a number of gorgeous beaches known as being perfect for relaxing and enjoying lively nightlife.
Within he bustling island, you’ll find that it does have its particular hotspots, including San Antonio, a town on the west coast of Ibiza. The popular town is home to the infamous Sunset Strip.
The promenade welcomes crowds of people, especially during the summer, for many reasons. It has an incredible selection of bars and restaurants that serve dishes influenced by cuisines around the world.
Street artists and club parades also take over the area, and with it sitting by the open sea, travellers also get to enjoy the party boats anchored in the bay.
While this San Antonio is buzzing with events upon events, you wouldn’t believe that minutes away, you’ll find a completely different scene.
Just a stroll away from San Antonio is a beautiful little beach where you can escape the crowds of people and enjoy Ibiza’s beauty without all the noise.
Cala Gracio Beach is a quiet bay just 2km north of Ibiza’s busy party town. It has loungers, parasols, showers, lifeguards, restaurants, bars, disabled access and a beach resturant named after the bay.
The 80-metre-long beach is perfect for families with young children because of its easy access and a lifeguard on hand.
The bay also doesn’t experience any extreme waves or currents, which is a safety bonus.
On TripAdvisor, the beach is rated four stars, with plenty of reviews from people reflecting on its beauty.
One Brit who visited in May said: “We returned here and enjoyed a day on the beach. We hired sun beds and parasol, we braved the sea in May, which was perfect and clear. We took some bread and fed the fish, which was great.”
Another commented: “Enchanting wee place and super spot for snorkelling.”
