Ibiza Southern and Western Coast Sailing Itinerary from Marina Ibiza - 7 Days through Salinas, Es Vedrà, Cala Jondal and Cala Conta

Marina Ibiza, also known as Marina Botafoch, occupies the northern breakwater of the Eivissa harbor directly opposite the old town of Dalt Vila. The location places the boat at the center of the most historically and architecturally concentrated point on the entire island, with the UNESCO-listed Renaissance walls of the upper city visible across the harbor entrance from the berth and the waterfront promenade of the new marina immediately accessible on foot. As a departure point for a sailing week along the southern and western coastline of Ibiza, the position is ideal: the best anchorages and beaches on the island lie within a compact arc of coastline extending from the southeastern tip southward and then northwest toward the western cape.
The southern coast of Ibiza between Eivissa and the Torre de Ses Portes is shaped by the Ses Salines Natural Park, a protected area that covers the ancient salt flat system in the southeastern corner of the island, the pinewood-backed beaches of Es Cavallet and Ses Salines, and the marine corridor connecting Ibiza to Formentera through the shallow posidonia channel of Es Freus. The salt production here dates to the Phoenician period and the salt flats remain in operation, their geometric shapes visible from the water as the boat rounds the southern cape. The natural park designation controls anchoring in the most sensitive posidonia zones and protects the water quality that gives this entire section of coast its clarity.
Sa Caleta, on the southwestern corner of the island, is one of the most historically significant anchorages in the Balearics. The headland above the beach is the site of the only Phoenician settlement in Ibiza outside of the main city, with archaeological remains dating to the 7th century BCE that explain the island's long tradition as a maritime waypoint between North Africa, Sardinia and the Iberian Peninsula. The beach below is a sheltered cove of dark sand and clear water largely invisible from the road network above.
Further northwest, Es Torrent and Cala Jondal anchor the southwestern coast in a different character: remote enough for genuine solitude, well-known enough among the sailing community to have developed small beach restaurants that serve fresh fish to boats arriving by tender without requiring advance reservations. Es Vedrà, the volcanic island rising from the sea off the southwestern tip of Ibiza, closes the southern section of the route before the coastline turns northwest and the classic western bays of Cala Conta and the Cala Comte area open the final days of the week.
