Secret spot · Santa Eulària des Riu

Cala Llonga cave

A natural cave in the rocky shoreline of Cala Llonga bay, on Ibiza’s east coast. Steep access with little to hold on to, and no facilities.

What makes the Cala Llonga cave special

On the north side of Cala Llonga bay, on Ibiza’s east coast, there’s a cave in the rocky shoreline. The area is part of the municipality of Santa Eulària des Riu. As the crow flies, the map pin is about 900 metres east of the sandy beach.

It’s a natural hollow in the cliffs, not a developed attraction. You come here for the rugged coastline. The beach is sheltered at the head of the bay, but out here, closer to the open sea, the waves pound the rocks when the wind gets up.

There’s little reliable information about the cave itself: no official name or dimensions could be found. That’s why this description is deliberately brief.

Getting there and parking

You can get to Cala Llonga by car. Park in the village or by the beach, wherever parking is marked. A walking route from the beach to the cave hasn’t been checked yet. Use the map pin as a guide and check on the spot whether a path is open to the public.

The final stretch down to the cave is steep, with little to hold on to. Expect rocky ground that can be slippery from sea spray.

Facilities

There are no facilities at the cave. You’ll find restaurants around Cala Llonga beach.

Combine it with the Cala Blanca tunnel

About 500 metres further north as the crow flies is the secret tunnel of Cala Blanca, another secret spot on this map. You reach it by a separate route from Siesta, which is described on the tunnel’s own page. With a car, you can fit both places into one day, along with time on the beach at Cala Llonga.

Tips for your visit

  • Wear sturdy shoes with a good tread; flip-flops aren’t suitable on the rocks.
  • Bring plenty of water: there’s nothing to buy at the cave.
  • In summer, go early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when it’s less hot.
  • Make sure your phone is charged and tell someone where you’re going.
  • Take all your rubbish away with you.
