With a surprisingly long list of aquatic activities, Ibiza's beaches are fantastic for families. The key, of course, is to look for a great holiday home near the most family-oriented spots.
One of Ibiza's largest beaches, the wide, sandy strand here and typically shallow water are ideal for children. You'll have plenty of space for watersports, and there's even an on-site playground. There are ample restaurants and shopping nearby, and the lively, cultural town of Santa Eulària des Riu is close at hand. There is also a ferry and bus service to Ibiza Town, which is definitely worth a visit to explore its narrow cobbled streets, boutiques, and restaurants.
Just two kilometres from the lively town of San Antonio, this is another great destination for families. Here you'll find a sandy beach and shallow water with hidden coves nearby. Kids will love the beach playground, while adults can relax on the beach's sunloungers. Be sure to visit the aquatic reserve in a natural cave, Aquarium Cap Blanc, over in Smuggler's Cove.
On the island's northern tip, you'll find this set of three family-oriented beaches. The S'Arenal Gran beach offers a lifeguard, while all around the area you can enjoy kayaking, mini-golf, stand up paddling, and more. This is also a great resort area for renting a boat or learning to dive. Or you can simply relax on the fine white sand and let the children frolic in crystal clear water.
