CAFÉ BAR FLOTANTE The mythical Bar Flotante (floating bar) is set on the shore of the stunning Platja de Talamanca, just outside Eivissa (Ibiza Town).  Along with its neighbour, Hostal Talamanca, it has been here since the 1960s. Serving locals and tourists alike. You will find nothing fancy here, nor do you need it. The service isn't great or fast, but if you're on vacation and not in a rush, you can enjoy the ambience for as long as you like. The food is basic but decent, w

VIVÉ BEACH CHIRINGUITO Open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in Winter. From 10 am until 6 pm. A favourite with locals, Chiringuito Vivé Beach is situated on the sand of the Platgeta de sa Punta (Platja es Vivé), an urban beach located between Ses Figueretes and Platja d'en Bossa. An area where you can take advantage of many aquatic activities, since it is well laid out and marked. It is a large sandy area that is a paradise for families. Additionally, the waters are shallow, mak

RESTAURANTE ES PUETÓ This is a traditional beach bar/chiringuito, situated directly on the beach in Cala de Bou, with an Ibicencan heritage dating back to 1969.

This time, we tried the excellent Ensalada de tomate burrata (tomato & burrata salad), followed by, Chiperones fritos (fried baby squid) Merluza (hake) Choco (cuttlefish) Also available were, Gambas al ajillo (garlic prawns) Rodaballo (turbo

CHIRINGUITO CALA D'EN SERRA UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2025 You will see the sign for Cala d'en Serra on the right, just before you arrive in Portinatx. Follow the road until the tarmac ends and park. You can see the beach below, a small horseshoe bay with satellite coves nearby. The sandy beach boasts clean, clear water and was once named one of  Europe's  best beaches by The Guardian newspaper. Cliffs surround the bay. Beware: the access is steep (not great for young children and

CALÓ DE S'ALGA KIOSKO SIESTA The Caló de s'Alga Beach Bar in Siesta is a delightful find. Nestled below the Grand Hotel Palladium, it's an insider tip for anyone staying nearby or on holiday in Santa Eulària. If you're looking for a spot to relax, this is it!

CHIRINGUITO SA FERRADURA (EL PIRATA) To find this great little Kiosk and beach, turn left at the sign for the Hacienda Na Xamena Hotel and Spa on the way down to Port de Sant Miquel Road (before you reach the port). At around halfway, you must take the right-hand fork turn and drive for approximately 2 km along a quite testing, bumpy Camino (un-tarmacked road) to arrive at the bay. The Kiosk with the pirate flag is situated on the beach and serves good-value meat dishes, fish

RESTAURANT POMELO PLAYA (ex Sa Bresca) UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2025 The chiringuito on Cala Gracio has only opened this year. The beds are reasonable, the service is good, but since Mambo Group owns it, the prices are incredibly overpriced. It is now called Pomelo Playa.

CHIRINGUITO SES BOQUES This rustic and authentic chiringuito has been located at the end of a long, steep road down from Es Cubells since the 1970s. It is set among pine trees and offers a full view of a small pebble beach. To reach the restaurant, take the road on the left before you reach Es Cubells church. Around a mile or so later, you will see it signposted on the left on the cliff road going down the hill. After a steep slope, you will reach the restaurant next to the s

KIOSKU CALA MASTELLA This beach bar on the island's northeast is a local insider tip among Ibiza's chiringuito lovers. It is sometimes unfavourably compared to the legendary fish restaurant El Bigotes, which sits to the left in the same bay. This is entirely unjustified, although it works on a different concept. Pepe Bonet and Angel Pins have created a true oasis of calm here and created honest, perfectly prepared food. They have six dishes (fresh fish, of course, hamburgers,

CHIRINGUITO CALA ESCONDIDA IBIZA The walk to Platges de Comte,  in the municipality of Sant Josep de sa Talaia, is about 200 meters from the new car park.
