ENVIRONMENT

Portinatx is a modern and small town on the northern tip of the island of Ibiza. It is located 30km from Ibiza capital and the airport. It is an attractive town, with houses of one or two floors, painted white, located among pine forests. They are placed at different heights on the hills that surround the beaches. Portinatx is a quiet area in a natural environment and away from the hustle and bustle of other larger cities on the island.

BEACHES

There are a lot of small beaches and coves in the northern part of Ibiza. These coves are only accessible by unpaved roads and with a yacht from the sea, so they are usually little frequented.

Cala S’Illot

Located directly east of Cala Xarraca, it is smaller and very popular for rockfish fishing.

Cala Xuclar

Very close to Cala S’Illot, this small cove has some fishermen’s houses and a small kiosk. Here you can find total tranquility.
