Portinatx (S'Arenal Gran) – beach on Ibiza

The beach

S’Arenal Gran is the largest beach in Portinatx in the northeast of Ibiza and is located right in the resort. The bay is easy to reach and is one of the main swimming spots in the holiday area. Thanks to its sheltered location, the sea here often feels calm, especially in normal weather.

The beach consists mostly of light sand with a gently sloping shoreline in parts. The water is usually clear and often very shallow near the shore, making it especially suitable for relaxed swimming. Because the bay is compact, it can get quite busy in high season.

S’Arenal Gran is especially suitable for families, couples, and anyone looking for an easy beach day in the resort. Around the beach, there are seasonal services and dining options. If you’re looking for more peace and quiet, the Portinatx area also has smaller coves and rocky sections.
