A wide sandy bay in north-east Ibiza with clear, shallow water, beach facilities and a view of the islet of Tagomago.
What makes Aigües Blanques special
Aigües Blanques is on the north-east coast of Ibiza, in the municipality of Santa Eulària des Riu, about 4 km from the village of Sant Carles de Peralta. You may also know the beach as S’Aigua Blanca or, in Spanish, Aguas Blancas.
The sandy beach is about 300 m long and 25 m wide and lies at the foot of high cliffs. The name means ‘white waters’, a reference to the white foam of the waves breaking on the shore.
The water is shallow and turquoise, with a sandy bottom. About 50 m out, it’s still only around 2 m deep. From the beach, you look out over Punta Grossa and the island of Tagomago.
According to the official Balearic Islands tourism website, Aigües Blanques and Es Cavallet are Ibiza’s main naturist beaches. Some visitors coat themselves in wet clay from the cliffs.
The amount of sand varies. In the past, storms from the east have washed a lot of it away, after which the beach built up again.
Getting there and parking
From Sant Carles de Peralta, take the PM-810 as far as the turning for Aigües Blanques, which is well signposted. There’s a car park at the top of the cliffs.
From the car park, it’s about 400 m on foot to the beach. The path descends steeply, partly via steps. Wear sturdy shoes and allow for the climb back up.
Facilities
In summer, according to the official tourist board, there are showers, sunloungers and parasols, and a beach bar where you can buy drinks. Out of season, you can’t count on these, so bring your own water and food.
Tips for your visit
- Come in the morning or early afternoon. Later in the day, the beach falls into the shadow of the cliffs.
- Bring plenty of water and sun cream. The climb back to the car is hard work in the heat.
- Between Aigües Blanques and Es Figueral, you’ll also find Heart Rock on the map. Es Figueral itself is a little further south.
Safety and nature
The path down is steep and can be slippery with loose sand and grit. Take your time, especially on the way back up. Carry all your rubbish back up with you.
