Out and About in Es Cana, Ibiza

Situated on the east coast of the island, Es Caná has all you could want for  both relaxing or lively holidays. The beach, a pine-fringed crescent of golden sand, is the place to go to chill with a cool drink from one of the bars along its edge or take a dip in the clear blue Med.

The wet and wild set can water ski, parasail or windsurf here, with plenty of daytime action for everyone. Surrounding the resort are beautiful unspoiled beaches, easily reached on foot, like Cala Nova, meeting point of the local surfers, or Cala Martina which has a large windsurf school and an excellent diving school - the clear seas around Ibiza are a wonderful underwater world.

Evening Entertainment

Evenings can be filled with fun and frolics, or quiet and low key depending on your mood. With a choice of home-made pub grub, fine seafood, superb local cuisine and everything in between, Es Cana's eateries will delight all-comers. Couples might enjoy an after dinner stroll along the sea front and a glass of Cava in a chill out bar. For later nights and fun there are plenty of bars with quizzes, karaoke and live entertainment until the wee hours. And then the next day it's back to the beach...

Hippy Market

The biggest and most famous Hippy Market is held each Wednesday and because it’s only a short stroll from the main resort there's no extra costs involved in getting there!

The hustle and bustle is a sight to behold, with objects from around the globe, handmade jewellery and much more you'll be hard pressed to keep your money in your purse!

Out and About

From the small harbour, daily boat trips take you to sophisticated Ibiza Town where you can wander the cobbled streets of the old walled town, or Santa Eulalia with its classy marina, pristine beach and many shops. Or, for the more adventurous, a day trip to our beautiful little sister island of Formentera. You can also enjoy a ride on the little train into the Ibicecan countryside.

Close by, the small white-washed village of San Carlos is home to the legendary Anitas Bar which was the original hang out of the hippies. It also has a pretty little church and a few good restaurants.

Whilst at night don't miss the excitement of Ibiza Town; it literally comes alive with colour and spectacle when the 'beautiful people' come out to play in their fabulous clothes

Spotlight Tip: Ideal for the cooler months, the stunning coastline allows you to walk a good deal of its length; to the north the walk to Cala Nova and Cala Leña takes in idyllic places to rest in the shade or to swim from the sandy beaches along the way. To the south past Cala Martina, Cala Pada, S'Argamassa and Niu Blau the coast walk to Santa Eulalia has perfect resting spots in shady areas and swimming from rocks and sandy beaches: with those all important little bars strategically placed.
As an option; walk to Santa Eulalia and get a taxi or the ferry-boat back.
