Platja de Llevant, White sand beach in Formentera, Spain

Platja de Llevant is a 1,450-metre-long, 90-metre-wide beach of white sand on the north-east coast of Formentera, just across from Ses Illetes and near the Port de la Savina. Its water is turquoise and transparent, and because it faces east it gets more wind and some surf than other beaches on the island.

The beach sits within Ses Salines Natural Park, an area where salt production was practiced for centuries as a traditional livelihood. This heritage of salt harvesting shaped how the landscape is managed and protected today.

The eastern section functions as a naturist area where visitors practice clothing-optional bathing as part of local beach customs. This reflects how Mediterranean beaches have evolved to accommodate different preferences over time.

Access is by an unpaved road with a paid entry toll; parking is recommended at the Bar Tanga car park. The beach faces east, so it catches more wind and some surf than Ses Illetes. Loungers and parasols can be rented on site.

Platja de Llevant faces east (Llevant means the east wind), so it gets more wind and some surf than Ses Illetes just across the way. Its 1,450 metres by 90 metres lie within the Àrea Natural d'Especial Interès de Ses Salines, noted for its birds.
