To find the coast itself you can only go by boat or on foot which makes it an even more exciting adventure.
The waves crash up onto the rocks and create natural swimming pools carved out into the cliff face. Strange rock formations were originally created by quarriers and recovered by hippies and transformed into areas for worship and prayer. If you look carefully, you can spot Buddhist carvings and drawings of animals and nature adorning the walls and the rock-faces. It's the perfect excursion for older children and teenagers but be careful when hiking down to the caves, as the terrain can be a bit rocky!

The charisma and spirituality of Ibiza can be felt at its highest strength at this spot. It is one of the best examples of an Ibiza family beach.
Where to stay: Villa Torre Vedra is the embodiment of Ibiza as it wraps around the side of the cliff with views over the Med. The white walls and funky art will transport you to another era. The Cala d’Hort bay is just below, meaning that the depths of Atlantis are not too far to explore.
