Hotels near Las Salinas Natural Park
Sant Josep de sa Talaia, Spain
Las Salinas Natural Park (Parc Natural de Ses Salines) covers the southern tip of the island plus the nearby island of Formentera and protects one of the most important wetland ecosystems in the Balearic Islands. The working salt flats (Salines d'Eivissa) turn shades of pink and orange as the mineral content rises through summer - a spectacle visible from the road for free. Greater flamingos and dozens of migratory waders use the flats as a stopover, making this the island's best wildlife-watching spot without question.
Beyond the salt flats, the park's southern boundary meets Playa de las Salinas (Platja de Ses Salines), a 1.2 km stretch of fine white sand backed by protected dune scrub. There are beach bars here, but the beach itself is public and the water is exceptionally clear. This is one of the best beaches on the island and it costs nothing to use.
Pro Tip: Rent a bicycle in Ibiza Town (around 12 EUR per day from several hire shops near the port) and cycle the 12 km to Las Salinas along the flat southern road - far cheaper than a taxi and quicker than the bus. The route passes the airport perimeter fence where you can watch planes land overhead at close range.
