Getting there: Reached by car on the road from Ibiza Town, past the airport towards Cala Jondal and before Sa Caleta. Take the left turn just after the small supermarket on the left. Only a small car park, but normally there is always a space available, even during the high season.
The beach
To the east of Sa Caleta and literally under the flight path of the airport, Es Codolar is one of the longest and least frequented beaches on the island. It's completely covered with large grey pebbles, (in Catalan a pebble is a 'codol') making access a bit tricky (bathing shoes recommended), but once you pass this barrier, soft sand and crystal clear water feel like heaven.
On windy days or after a storm some surfers try their luck to get a ride, and the beach is also popular for walks amongst locals. The backdrop is the famous Salinas salt pans - part of Ibiza's Wildlife Conservation Area.
Nearest resort
