Platja Ses Platetes, Sand beach in Ibiza, Spain.
Platja Ses Platetes is a sand beach on the Mediterranean coast in southeastern Ibiza with fine white sand and natural dunes. Pine forests line the shore, providing shade and shelter from the open water.
The beach sits in a region known for salt trading during ancient times, where Phoenician merchants established important commercial routes. This historical trade activity shaped how the coastal area developed over the centuries.
The beach draws both locals and travelers seeking a quieter side of Ibiza away from crowded resort areas. Small beach bars and restaurants here serve fresh catches from nearby fishing boats.
The beach has parking available nearby and can be reached by public bus from Ibiza Town. The shallow water and gentle sandy bottom make it suitable for families and less experienced swimmers.
The beach borders the protected Parc Natural de Ses Salines nature reserve, which connects to Formentera and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. This conservation area preserves rare salt lagoons and specialized bird species.
