Beach overall scores
Playa de La Cueva (Balearic Islands) is located outside the Portinatx settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Ibiza, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"This location is ideal for swimming, and is very peaceful and quiet. The path to the small bay is quite rocky and bumpy, so it's best to wear sturdy shoes. You may even be able to spot some fish, and jellyfish depending on the wind direction."
