Es Cana (Es Canar), Ibiza - a Resort for the Whole Family

The beach at Es Cana

A sweep of golden sand where children can play safely all day, cheerful places to eat out, lively family entertainment bars, and a tiny harbour filled with fishing boats and fabulous views across the sea to distant islands; this is the family friendly resort of Es Cana.

Daytime Fun

The beach at Es CanaSituated in the east of the island, Es Cana has all you could want for a 'fun in the sun' family holiday. The beach, supervised by lifeguards, is where the kids will excitingly drag you to relax and soak up the sun while they get out their buckets and spades.

The beach at Es CanaWater babes are more than catered for on the bananaboat, add waterski, parasailing and windsurfing and there's plenty of daytime action for everyone. Surrounding the resort there are beautiful unspoiled beaches, which are easily reached by foot, like Cala Martina which has a large windsurf school and an excellent diving school - the clear waters around Ibiza have a wonderful underwater world.

Out and About

The little harbourFrom 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, Niu Blau and S'Argamassa 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.
