Blue Bar, Mediterranean restaurant in Formentera, Spain.
Blue Bar is a restaurant on the coast of Formentera, set on an open terrace right at the water's edge with views of the rocky shoreline. The menu focuses on fish and seafood sourced daily from local fishermen working around the island.
The place opened in the 1990s as a small spot by the sea and gradually became one of the more established dining addresses on the island. Its growth followed the broader rise of food tourism on Formentera during those decades.
The name Blue Bar comes from the color the sea takes on in this part of the island, especially on clear days. Sitting at one of the tables, you can watch the light change over the water as the hours pass.
The terrace sits fully exposed to the sun throughout the day, so light clothing and sun protection are worth bringing along. Booking a table in advance is a good idea, especially for evening visits when the place tends to fill up.
On several evenings a week, live music performances take place on the terrace without any fixed announcement in advance. Guests eating dinner may find themselves sitting beside an impromptu set, which adds a different tone to the meal.
