Next to the town of San Antonio de Portmany, you’ll find a tranquil cove nestled in an exceptional setting, featuring calm, crystal-clear waters and golden sands. Can you picture it? This is Cala Gració.
This beach also offers a wide range of services and provides every comfort you could imagine. Perhaps that’s why it’s considered one of the best beaches in Ibiza. And if you’re in the mood to discover a smaller, more intimate and cosy beach, don’t miss the neighbouring Cala Gracioneta. You’re sure to love it!
Located in a Magnificent Natural Setting
Cala Gració is a small cove known for its clear, turquoise waters, situated in a sheltered bay and surrounded by an exceptional pine and juniper forest.
On the sides of the cove, by the rocks, you can still see some traditional boathouses where fishermen store their gear, adding a certain charm to the cove.
A great idea is to sit on the rocks, take a moment to rest, and enjoy the view. From there, you can gaze out at the islet of Sa Conillera, which is part of the Es Vedrà, Es Vedranell and Illots de Ponent Natural Reserve, and take in a unique panorama. If you have a bit of time, you can also experience one of Ibiza’s finest sunsets from here.
Cala Gració also boasts a variety of amenities, including ramps for beach access for people with reduced mobility, lifeguard services, showers, toilets, and rentals for pedal boats, sunbeds, and umbrellas, among other facilities. And if you fancy a snack or a refreshing drink, just by the beach you’ll find Gració Ibiza, a laid-back beach bar offering stunning sea views.
Cala Gració: Perfect for Family Fun
Cala Gració is a peaceful, family-friendly beach, often visited by locals and tourists staying in San Antonio.
Since it’s located in a sheltered bay, the beach is protected from winds and currents. Additionally, its shallow waters make it ideal for families with children.
Thanks to its crystal-clear waters, it’s also perfect for snorkelling, an activity that children will adore. Don’t forget to explore the rocks on the sides of the beach – a great place to discover the delights of Ibiza’s marine life.
The natural surroundings of the beach also make it an excellent spot for walking, enjoying a scenic stroll, and soaking in the landscape. Here, you’ll find several coastal paths that meander along the shoreline.
Discover Cala Gracioneta
Right next to Cala Gració, you’ll find a smaller cove known as Cala Gracioneta. Although this beach shares similar characteristics with Cala Gració, it is quieter and less frequented by families.
To reach it, you’ll need to take the path starting from the easternmost part of the beach, which follows the coastline until you arrive at Cala Gracioneta. It’s a pleasant walk that should take around fifteen to twenty minutes. The only thing to keep in mind is that, being such a small cove, it tends to fill up quickly.
Here, you’ll also find the Cala Gracioneta beach bar, a well-situated spot with fantastic views and high-quality Mediterranean cuisine.
