The moment the sun melts into the horizon is one of the most sought-after spectacles on the island. While most travel guides will send you down south, the north of Ibiza offers a wilder, more natural experience, completely free from the crowds.
If you are staying at our apartments, you are in a privileged location to discover these magical corners. In this post, we reveal where to find the best light, from iconic coves to secret cliffs.
🌇 The Best Sunsets in the North of Ibiza
Many travelers believe that San Antonio is the only place to watch the sunset. However, if you are looking for the silence of the sea and a real connection with nature, these spots near San Miguel will steal your heart:
Cala Benirràs: Magic and Drums
This is the undisputed jewel of the north. Its famous islet (Es Cap Bernat) creates an iconic silhouette against the sun.
The Best Part: Although Sundays are famous for the drum party, you can enjoy a bohemian and authentic atmosphere with spontaneous music during the golden hour any day of the week.
Na Xamena Cliffs
Just 15 minutes away from Puerto de San Miguel, this spot offers one of the most memorable sunsets thanks to its high elevation above sea level. It is a pristine environment where the sun seems to sink directly into the abyss.
Puerto de San Miguel and Balansat Tower
You don’t need to go far to enjoy the show:
On the beach: Even though the sun doesn’t set directly into the water here, the sky turns vibrant shades of pink and orange that reflect magically across the bay.
Balansat Tower: Walking up towards the left side of the harbor, this ancient defense tower offers an exceptional panoramic view of the northern coastline.

🌤️ Sunrises: The Island’s Most Pristine Awakening
If you are an early bird who prefers to enjoy absolute calm, the northeast of Ibiza will gift you the very first rays of the Mediterranean sun.
Cala d’en Serra
Just a 25-minute drive from our apartments, this cove surrounded by traditional fishermen’s huts is a haven of peace. Watching the sun rise between its rocks and crystal-clear waters is an experience very few tourists know about.
Aguas Blancas Beach
This is a true local favorite. Located about 25–30 minutes to the northeast, it offers a unique contrast between its dark sand and the golden tones of the dawn.
Local Tip: Take the opportunity to enjoy a solitary swim before the beach fills up; the energy is unmatched.
Punta Grossa Lighthouse (For adventurers only)
Located near Cala San Vicente, this abandoned lighthouse requires a short hike. The reward is an unobstructed, 360-degree panoramic view as the sun rises over the open sea.
💡 Tips to Catch the Perfect Light
To make the most of your experience in Ibiza, keep these recommendations in mind:
Arrive early:
The most beautiful moments happen about 30 minutes before the official sunset (or sunrise). This is when the colors are at their most intense.
Check the schedule:
Sunrise and sunset times change every day. Make sure to check your phone so you don’t miss it.
Comfortable footwear:
For spots like Na Xamena or Punta Grossa, skip the flip-flops and wear closed shoes to safely walk along the rocky paths.
