Nearly three kilometres of sand south of Ibiza Town, lined with hotels, beach clubs and the two superclubs. It is the beach for people who want the party within walking distance and the airport ten minutes away.
The short answer
Playa d'en Bossa runs south from Ibiza Town for about 2.7 km, which makes it the longest beach on the island. Ushuaia and Hi Ibiza sit at its southern end and the airport is a 10 minute taxi ride. People come for the beach clubs, the pool parties and the sunset boat parties that leave from Ibiza port. It is 5 minutes by car or 25 on foot from the old town.

The beach is wide, shallow and sandy, so it works for families in the mornings before the music starts. The northern end near Figueretes is quieter and closer to town, the southern end is where the big clubs, the beach bars and the pool parties concentrate. Behind the last hotels starts Ses Salines, the salt flats natural park with Salinas and Es Cavallet beaches.
If you rent a villa here you get the airport and the clubs on foot. If you want the sea, we send you to Ibiza port five minutes away, where the sunset boats and the Formentera boats leave from.
