Las Salinas (the salt flats) is one of Ibiza\u2019s visitors\u2019 most famous<\/strong> places and one loved by the Ibicencans. It is Ibiza\u2019s main natural park which comprises a large area on the south of Ibiza and the north of Formentera and contains the famous and really popular\u00a0Playa de Las Salinas<\/a> and the tiny village of Sant Francesc de Ses Salines<\/p>\n

How to get to Las Salinas?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is very easy to reach by car<\/strong> from Ibiza by taking the airport road. Just turn off at the sign for \u201cSes Salines\u201d. You can get to the natural Park from Sant Francesc de Ses Salinas, the village located on the road which ends at the Salinas Beach. You can also take bus from Ibiza<\/strong> to the beach, line (l\u00ednea)<\/u> 11.<\/p>\n

What to see in Las Salinas?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With its territory of almost 3.000 hectares of land, plus 13.000 of sea, Las Salinas was declared a natural park in 2001. The entire area is one of exquisite natural beauty and ecological import. We recommend you stop in Sant Francesc de Ses Salines<\/strong> where you will find the \u201cInterpretation Centre of the Natural Park of Las Salinas\u201d located in grounds of the small church. There you will be able to learn more about local flora and fauna as well as the history of Las Salinas and the importance it had in the past. There are also two pleasant restaurants,<\/strong>San Francisco\u00a0and Coricancha<\/a>.<\/u><\/p>\n

You can take a lovely walk from Sant Francesc to the area of the salt flats, the largest wetlands on the island where flamingos can be seen nearly all year round<\/p>\n

The salt harvesting on the island started around 600 BC. Known as \u201cwhite gold\u201d salt was one of Ibiza\u2019s main exports and sources of wealth. Between the beaches \u00a0Es <\/a>Cavallet<\/a>,\u00a0Las Salinas<\/a>\u00a0and Es Codolar<\/a>\u00a0 you can still see these salt ponds and take amazing photos of the sun setting over them. At the end of the Salinas beach you can see the remains of a 19th century railway which was used to transport the salt to the small dock of Sa Canal whence it travelled to all over the world. The salt industry is still alive, albeit much reduced, the port\u00a0 La Canal\u00a0 still\u00a0 being the point of export. Beside Sa Canal is La Nave Salinas, an impressive\u00a0 space which in summer holds free exhibitions by world famous artists as well as other events like poetry readings or concerts. Of course you can\u2019t visit Salinas without enjoying a swim at the beach of Salinas, famous for its transparent waters and its sand dunes, although in summer it is also one of the most crowded. It is also worth taking a walk to the Torre de Ses Portes, one of the island\u2019s defence towers which faces Formentera.<\/p>\n

Where to eat and drink in Las Salinas?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As we said before, you have two restaurants in Sant Francesc: San Francisco<\/strong> a typical, local reasonably priced restaurant with a pleasant terrace and Coricancha<\/strong>, a restaurant specialising in Japanese-Peruvian fusion nikkei cuisine with amazing views over the salt flats.<\/p>\n

On the Salinas beach there are lots of\u00a0 famous and recommendable beachfront restaurants with great vibes like Jockey Club<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>Malib<\/a>\u00fa<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Beso Beach<\/a> or the more lively Sa Trinxa.<\/u><\/p>\n

Also near beach but not by the sea is the quaint\u00a0Boutique Hostal Salinas<\/a>, which offers a set menu and is a venue for parties and events. On the Es Cavallet beach close by you will find the famous and lively Chiringay <\/u>as well as El Chiringuito<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0La Escollera<\/a> offering Mediterranean cuisine. Experimental Beach is located on the nearby stony beach of Cap des Falc\u00f3 on the migration route of many birds and highly recommended for enjoying a cocktail at sunset.<\/p>\n

And also close by is the town of Sant Jordi with its numerous bars, restaurants and all sorts of businesses.<\/p>\n
