Cala d’Hort, Beach in Sant Josep de sa Talaia, Spain.
Cala d'Hort is a beach in Sant Josep de sa Talaia on the southwestern coast of Ibiza, stretching about 150 meters with sandy and pebbly sections. The beach faces the Mediterranean Sea and is framed by the distinctive limestone formation of Es Vedrà rising from the waters.
Nearby archaeological remains of Ses Paisses mark a rural settlement from the fifth century BC that was inhabited by Phoenicians, Romans, and Byzantines. This ancient occupation shows how this coastal area has drawn people from distant lands for trade and settlement over centuries.
Restaurants perched on the cliffs and along the shore serve traditional fish dishes and paella prepared using time-honored Balearic methods. Diners gather to share meals while looking out at the water, making food an important part of the local experience here.
The shoreline provides sunbeds, parasols, restaurants, and a lifeguard service, with facilities designed to be accessible for people with disabilities. Small shops operate directly along the beach if you need anything during your visit.
The beach enforces a non-smoking policy, which keeps the air and water feeling cleaner and creates a more open environment. This rule is uncommon for Spanish coastal areas and makes the swimming experience here different from nearby beaches.
