Benirras Beach, North West Ibiza

Bohemian beach on the north west coast, popular for drumming as the sun sets

Featured in

A beautiful golden pebbly sand beach popular with families, hippies and the tight knit residents of Ibiza's northern community.

Just past San Miguel on the north west coast the beach is surrounded by stunning rocky scenery, and in the distance, in the middle of the sea is the large rock formation of Cap Bernat.

On most evenings the Ibiza sunset is best experienced at Benirras beach, where hippy drummers turn out to beat their drums as the sun disappears below the horizon.
