Sa Pedrera de Cala D'Hort, Ancient quarry site at Cala d'Hort, Ibiza, Spain

Sa Pedrera features diagonal rock formations with natural pools filled with green waters that create an intriguing contrast against the Mediterranean Sea.

The quarry supplied sandstone for the construction of Dalt Vila and the sixteenth-century castle of Ibiza, which are now UNESCO World Heritage sites.

During the 1960s, members of the local hippie community carved images of fish, Buddhas, and peace symbols into the rocks, creating an open-air gallery.

The descent to Sa Pedrera requires a challenging 45-minute hike down steep cliffs, with no facilities or amenities available at the destination.

Natural rectangular pools formed in the abandoned quarry spaces fill with seawater during high tide, creating distinct geometric patterns along the coastline.
