Family friendly beach resort in the east of the island of Ibiza
As you turn off the main road into Cala Llonga, you could be mistaken for this being a country club with its rather official looking walled entrance. It is however, a delightful family resort that is buzzing with life.
As you drive through the town you'll find the streets lined with various cafés and restaurants, as you get closer to the beach the shops begin to sell buckets and spades, inflatables and all the things that you will need to make your beach holiday complete. They might not quite have caught up with the wave of pretty boutique shops hitting the island but you will be well serviced with a pharmacy supermarket and tourist shops.
The bay is extremely sheltered on all sides and reaches out quite far before it meets the open ocean, so bathing is fairly safe in the shallow waters here. There are always a number of yachts moored off the coast and many accommodation blocks surrounding the beach so you probably won't need to travel far each morning.
As well as relaxing on the beach you can be a little more adventurous here and turn your hand to things such as parasailing, scuba-diving, windsurfing, paddle boarding and much more. And there is always the option of bat and ball, or a game of volleyball on the go.

Running since 1985, Las Dalias hippy market is probably the best and most famous of all Ibizan markets.
This market is located off the beaten track, on a road that connects San Antonio, San Rafael and Santa Agnes, in front of Can Tixedo Restaurant.
The northern town of Sant Joan de Labritja celebrates its local market every Sunday throughout the year with a festive atmosphere and lots to see and buy.
Every year, on the day of their saint, each village and town in Ibiza hosts a celebration in which tradition, culture, and sports are always present. The party continues for a couple of weeks.
The Noches de Reyes (Night of Kings) takes place the evening before, on the 5th January each year and then the Day of Kings is celebrated by people across Spain on the 6th January.
The beach itself is long and very wide, possibly one of the widest on the island so it's easy to find yourself a spot to camp down for the day. It's also well monitored and patrolled by life guards so you can be assured that someone is looking out for the safety of yourself and your family when in the water.
Just north of Ibiza town and south of Santa Eularia is the stunning beach of Cala Llonga.
If you find nearby Cala Llonga too crowded and built up, then less than a kilometre away is the pretty little cove of Sol d'en Serra.
This man-made beach of white sand stretches for 300m and is accessible from all parts of Santa Eulalia.
This is a beach that you will only get to if someone "in the know" takes you there.
Just north of Santa Eulalia is the peaceful beach of Es Niu Blau. Around 100m of golden sand ensures plenty of bathing spots and the bordering pine trees provide some shade.
Slightly less busy than some of the other beaches close to Santa Eulalia this beach offers not only great white sandy, shallow bathing and restaurants but also hosts a diving school.
There are so many restaurants, bars (including the obligatory English-pub types) and cafés in this town so you will most certainly find something to suit everyone.
For something a little out of town and a bit more rustic, it's worth making the trip to the old farmhouse that is Casa Piedra or perhaps the casual dining experience with Mexican and International specialities of El Deseo.
But by far and away my favourite dining spot in the area is just a short drive further round the coast to the south at the Amante Beach Club. Situated in the cliff overlooking the Sol d'en Serra bay this beautiful restaurant, bar and beach club offers everything you could need for a day in the sunshine.
Perched on a cliff overlooking the Sol D’en Serra bay, this beach club restaurant is surrounded by dramatic rocks and lush greenery.
CasaPiedra restaurant is located in a romantic place, surrounded by olive trees and lemon trees.
Seveteen restaurant is hidden in the heart of Siesta village, not far from Santa Eulalia.
A longstanding tradition, La Casita is in an old reformed finca owned by chef Johannes, who has been successfully pampering his guests with delicious cooking for the last 30 years.
El Deseo is the perfect place to chill out with friends, listen to good music and enjoy nice food and cocktails.
In addition to the many watersports that are available in Cala Llonga, you'll also find Ibiza's only golf club not far south of the town. A short drive on the quiet country roads and you will be at the Roca Lisa Golf Course.
The Roca Lisa Golf Course was founded in 1992 and is located just seven kilometres from the capital of Ibiza, halfway between the towns of Jesus and Santa Eulalia.
This is actually the only natural river on the island so it is lovely that they have paved this way so you can enjoy it. With information boards along the way you can learn about your surroundings.
