A mystical, ancient quarry where the stone was carved for the walls around the Ibiza Old Town. It’s like the Giant’s Causeway but with rectangles, glistening crystal clear sea, idyllic surroundings and a hippie folklore.
The angular landscape has also been doctored by travellers with faces, engravings and a mind blowing painting of a Buddha. It’s a great place to spend a day. The only thing is it’s a 40 minute descent down a cliff face to find it. It’s not easy. In fact, my girlfriend fell out with me for the rest of the day due to the even longer ascent. It’s worth the grief though. Stunning.
Head to Torre des Savinar and head to the cliff edge to see your target and begin the descent.
A magical seafood restaurant perched on the cliff side at Cala D'Hort beach in the south.
Overlooking the breathtaking Es Vedra island, the paella is the business and the view at sunset is a suitably fitting dessert.
