Located in the Migjorn area, on the south coast, it combines everything you&#039;d expect from a Mediterranean beach: clear waters, fine sand, stylish beach bars, and plenty of space even on the busiest days.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/purenatureibiza.com\/psookeer\/2021\/04\/Playa-Es-Arenals-beach.jpg\" alt=\"It is Arenals Formentera\" width=\"1000\" height=\"664\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: purenatureibiza.com<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#039;s ideal whether you&#039;re traveling as a couple, with children, or in a group. The sea is calm, with very shallow waters at the shore, making it perfect for worry-free swimming.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What to see and do in Es Arenals<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bathing and relaxing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The water here is so clear that you can see the bottom even if you&#039;re several meters from the shore.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Walk along the shore<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#039;s a long beach, perfect for walking barefoot on the wet sand.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Snorkel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it&#039;s not a rocky area, there are areas with plenty of marine life if you move away from the center a little.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Watch the sunset<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it doesn&#039;t face west, the late-day light casts a very pleasant warm hue over the beach.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Where to eat in Es Arenals<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of Es Arenals&#039; great attractions is its culinary offerings. Here are some highly recommended places:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>It&#039;s Cupin\u00e0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Simple but well-prepared Mediterranean dishes, with a terrace that overlooks the sea.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Flipper &amp; Chiller<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: good music, a young atmosphere and a menu that mixes international cuisine with local produce.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Es Arenals Restaurant<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It&#039;s part of the hotel of the same name, but it&#039;s open to the public. Ideal for a quieter lunch or dinner with a view.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>When to go<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During July and August, the beach can be quite crowded. If you can, visit in June or September: the weather is still excellent and the atmosphere more relaxed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the morning, you&#039;ll find more space and soft light. In the mid-afternoon, the atmosphere is more lively. And if you enjoy walking, you can take advantage of the proximity to other areas of Migjorn.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How to get there\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can get there by car, motorcycle, or bicycle. There&#039;s parking nearby, although it fills up quickly. You can also walk from other areas along the south coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another different option\u2014and highly recommended\u2014is to arrive from the sea. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/islazulformentera.com\/en\/\"><b>boat rental in Formentera<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> allows you to anchor in front of the beach, swim to the shore or simply enjoy it from the deck.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Is Es Arenals worth visiting?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, without a doubt. Although it&#039;s not a hidden cove or a wild beach, it has that perfect balance between services and natural surroundings. It&#039;s comfortable, beautiful, and versatile.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideal for a full day without having to move, or as part of a longer route along the island&#039;s south coast.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explore Es Arenals, one of Formentera&#039;s most popular beaches.
