Cala Carbó, Protected cove in Sant Josep de sa Talaia, Spain
Cala Carbó is a protected cove in Sant Josep de sa Talaia surrounded by Mediterranean pine-covered hills that descend to clear water. The beach, roughly 60 meters long, has coarse sand and gravel shores.
The name comes from charcoal production activities that took place in the surrounding area over past centuries. This former use shaped the region before it became a leisure destination.
Two local restaurants near the beach serve traditional Ibizan seafood prepared from daily catches brought in by local fishermen. These establishments reflect how the community has long depended on the sea for its food and livelihood.
The beach offers rental services for hammocks and umbrellas, with parking available just steps away. The gentle access to the water makes it fairly easy for most people to enjoy the shoreline.
Underwater Posidonia seagrass meadows grow in these waters, creating habitats for numerous Mediterranean marine species. These living underwater gardens are part of what makes the location ecologically important.
