The Platja d’en Bossa beach is one kilometre south of the Sant Jordi village (a small and isolated village that could be interesting to visit for its Church, the Eglesia de Sant Jordi, and for the characteristic market that is held every Saturday from 9 to 14).
This beach, that to the north is incorporated with San Antonio, is one of the longest of Ibiza: it is a thin sandy strip, wonderfully white that stretches for about three kilometres, straight and rectilinear as if it was artificially built.
Aligned on the beach, which has a rather conventional style, there are a series of hotel structures, in part suddenly built in the recent years during the Franco period and, in part, still under construction.
Of course, the area, in addition of having this wide range of hotels and residences where you can spend the holidays, it also offers different possibility of leisure, with its many cafes, restaurants typically for tourists, German breweries, English style pubs, car dealers to rent and several minimarkets full of widgets for the sea of each species, such as plastic dolphins and whales, life-rafts, tanning creams etc..all aligned along a road just behind the hotel row.
Platja d’en Bossa, having the privilege of a fantastic position between Ibiza Town and the fantastic Salines beach, is frequented by a variety of people, that go from families (very present in this area for the many facilities tourist offered), to the wise veterans of clubs and discos that, tired of staying in Sant Antoni, they come here thanks to the few kilometers of distance that separate them both from the city of Ibiza and from the natural wonders of the Salines.
Famous around the Platja d’en Bossa is the club-bar Bora Bora, near the seaside, that stains and enliven its excesses and its extravagances the nights of this piece of coast.
Finally, it can be said that the only disadvantage of Platja d’en Bossa is the total lack of characteristic restaurants or simply decent: in fact, most of the premises of the zone serve an international food, rather anonymous and devoid of personality, that adapt itself to the big masses but not to a specific and refined request.
