Today we woke up wanting to visit the Municipality of San José, probably one of the most beautiful in Ibiza. Its beaches dazzle everyone who steps on them for the first time and its natural wealth is indisputable.
If there is a place that you can not ignore in this area, it is the Ses Salines Natural Park. Whatever the age, it always offers something worth visiting. From August to October you can stroll through the park and contemplate how the flamencos make a stopover here before embarking on the flight again. In summer Salinas is one of the busiest beaches on the island. Celebrities, tourists and residents are concentrated in it to take a bath in its calm waters. Following this extends It's Cavallet, a beach known for its gay atmosphere and for being one of the few nudists in Ibiza.
A Little History
Once you leave the park, get closer to the beach It's Bol Nou, better known as sa Caleta, it's a great option. What distinguishes this cove from most is the fact that it is surrounded by high reddish cliffs. It is one of the favorites for families and here you can give yourself a famous mud bath.

Specifically in Salinas you can visit the Torre des Carregador, the Sal Rossa in Playa d'en Bossa or the d'en Rovira in Cala Conta.

In addition, in one of its coves you will find in summer the picturesque ecological beach bar Cala Escondida, one of the busiest to enjoy a beautiful sunset.
The beaches of San José are perfect for water sports. The kayak or paddle surf They are, from our point of view, two of the best you can practice. Thanks to them, you will be able to discover corners of the inaccessible Ibicencan coast on foot.
