Things to do in Salinas

Beach Visits

Las Salinas is found on the southernmost part of the island and is famed for its broad, crescent-shaped sandy beaches. At the other end of the beach, small catamarans lie on the sand. There is also a pirate tower where you’ll pass a line of pubs and restaurants where its gourmet food, beautiful crowd, and stunning setting make it a crowd favourite.

All of the clubs in the area play a good mix of dance and Balearic music that flows out onto the beach. A calmer area can be found farther down, which is a popular place for nudists. There is also a little strip of sand with a rocky entry to the ocean, which is home to the once-bustling, vibrant, and beautiful Sa Trinxa.

It is worth mentioning that, while Salinas is usually a nice spot to unwind, it’s not always quiet. There are party parades, ticket vendors, and beach merchants that line the beach during the summer months. The sun shines bright all day and there are plenty of gorgeous people to view as you wait for your meal and drinks to be delivered to you by servers on the beach. Prices are a tad higher, so if you are on a budget, packing a picnic basket with you is definitely a smart option.

Boat Parties

Right next to Salinas is the Playa d’en Bossa, which is known for its excellent boat parties. You may take a dip in the azure blue waters and enjoy the watersports often included in the boating package. Boat parties here often include an open bar and food, and some even provide admission to one or more nightclubs making the ticket a great steal. With so many great boat parties departing from Playa d'en Bossa, you're sure to find the right sea party for you.

Clubbing

Salinas is only a ten-minute drive away from Playa d’en Bossa, the home of some of Ibiza’s best nightclubs. One of the famous spots here is Ushuaïa Ibiza, which is considered one of the prime spots for daytime clubbing, where parties run from early afternoon until midnight. The club features a fantastic stage with extraordinary productions, which include amazing light shows and pyrotechnics. You can also dance around the luxury resort’s magnificent pool.

Dine

The beach has some luxury bars and restaurants in the area, such as Boutique Hostel Salinas and the Jockey Club. However, there are cheap places to dine down the road at the southern end of the beach if you are on a budget. Restaurants and bars are located directly across the street from the beach.

The Jockey Club Ibiza, one of the most famous dining places in Salinas, is known for having a warm and inviting environment and its emblematic blue horse on the roof. The restaurant serves delectable Mediterranean cuisine and an extensive wine selection. If walking to the restaurant seems like too much of an effort, there are plenty of sun loungers and parasols for rent, and you may request to be served right there.

Sight-seeing

Salinas is known for its Parque Natural de Ses Salines. It is an ecosystem that extends from Ibiza’s southeast coast all the way to Formentera. Herons, ospreys, black-winged stilts, shelduck, ringed plovers, peregrine falcons, and flamingos are among the 210 birds recorded here. The park spans 2,838.44 hectares of land and over 13,000 hectares of sea, accounting for 75% of the park's total size. The park exemplifies the uniqueness of Mediterranean biodiversity. Its distinctiveness stems from the fact that it serves as a stopover and breeding site for migrating birds. It contains a range of terrestrial and marine environments with a high ecological and historical landscape.
