BeachPlatja d’en Bossa (Ibiza Town)
The northern stretch of Platja d’en Bossa, the long sandy beach just outside Ibiza Town. Fine sand, shallow water and plenty of beach bars and restaurants.
What makes Ses Figueretes special
Platja de ses Figueretes is a town beach in Ibiza Town, and it gives its name to the neighbourhood behind it. The beach starts at Es Salt de s’Ase, at the foot of Dalt Vila, and runs as far as the Es Viver district. Groynes divide it into a series of small coves.
According to Ibiza Town council, the beach is 450 metres long and 25 metres wide. The sand is white and fine. The seabed shelves very gently: 50 metres out, the water is about 1.2 metres deep. Along the edges and near the groynes, the seabed is rocky.
The beach faces east-south-east, in an enclosed bay that’s sheltered from the waves. From the sand you can see islets and rocks out at sea, such as sa Corbeta (also called Illa Negra de l’Oest) and the Illa de ses Rates.
