Cala Saona, slightly south of Sant Francesc Xavier, is one of the most crowded beaches of Formentera, especially in the hot summer months.
This vast beach is located in a fabulous gulf wet from clear turquoise waters and the bay, characterized by a fine white sand, extends for 100 metres from the coast inwards until the only construction present on all the coast: the big Hotel Cala Saona...
Es Pujols is 2 kilometers north of Sant Ferran and it is the only Formentera tourist centre specifically built to welcome the great mass of vacationers in summer; for the rest of its territory, the island it has remained fairly uncontaminated and alien to the commercial urbanisation, so that makes the place a quiet alternative to the highly overcrowded close islands, openly more inclined to develop the industry of the tourism...
These two small adjacent bays, Platja des Canyers and Platja de sa Roqueta, are at one kilometre north of Ca Na Costa, a small archaeological site that represents the first human presence on the island of Formentera; Ca Na Costa is a megalithic tomb formed by a series of plates of limestone high up to 2 meters, placed in a circle, positioned vertically and surrounded by smaller concentric circles of boulders.

Trucador Peninsula: the Trucador peninsula is a very thin tongue of flat and sandy land that extends from the north of Espalmador until the Espalmador island.
This strip of land is part of the Ses Salines natural park and it is certainly a part of Formentera that you cannot miss to visit: this strip of sandy coast is occupied for mostly of its length by wonderful beaches, perhaps the most beautiful of the Balearic Islands, bathed by beautiful, clear and shallow waters...
This unforgettable beach form the eastern portion of the Trucador peninsula. The place, a strip of fine white sand, it was rather uncontaminated, without a particular tourist development: this is what makes the place quite exceptional.

Other beaches on the Trucador peninsula: from Platja Illetes it is possible to continue on foot to the final part of the peninsula: here there are the most beautiful beaches of the whole Formentera characterized by a blinding white sand and surprisingly thin. This very, very thin strip of land, just 30 metres wide, is wet by limpid and turquoise waters, which literally surrounds this tongue of land, that it is hardly populated by the mass of summer tourists.
This wonderful dunes island and charcterized by sandstone rocks, is especially famous for the wonderful S'Alga beach, an arch of fine sand wet from the crystal clear and sparkling sea, with shallow water.
