Cala Salada

The Cala Salada beach is a beach on the north coast of Ibiza located in the municipality of Sant Antoni de Portmany. Located about 3.5 kilometers west of San Antonio, the beautiful Cala Salada beach is considered one of the best coves on the island, thanks to its incredible natural beauty, its turquoise clear waters, and the surrounding environment, with hills covered in pine trees and rocky cliffs with amazing sea views.

The beach has a length of 100 meters and a width of 30 meters at its widest part (the beach access area) and about 10 meters at the narrowest part.

Cala Salada maintains a natural and untouched charm, while also offering basic services to ensure the comfort of visitors. It is a highly sought after destination for residents and many private boat owners. It is one of the most visited beaches by anchoring boats.

It should be noted that it gets much more crowded during the summer months, when tourism in Ibiza is much higher, but an alternative in these cases is the small cove located just next to it, called Cala Saladeta, which can be accessed by several trails, and it is much quieter, with less influx, with similar characteristics and the same charm as Cala Salada.
