FORMENTERA: La Savina / Ses Illetes – Driving Tour (4K Ultra HD)
4K Ultra HD virtual driving tour from La Savina to Ses Illetes in Formentera.
La Savina
This small port was created at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, with the aim of offering the owners of the boats moored in the Estany des Peix an alternative place to shelter. Over the years it became a key point for exporting the salt that was collected on the island and all kinds of infrastructure was developed for its transport. Today all these facilities have been converted to focus on tourism and the port is the main point of entry of supplies for the whole island.
As it is the point of connection for all residents and visitors, in summer it is very common to find a constant hustle and bustle of people coming and going. Several shipping companies dock here and have various routes to keep the island connected throughout the day. Exceptionally, bad weather can interrupt these services, especially in the winter months.
Ses Illetes
Declared one of the world’s most beautiful beaches on more than one occasion, the Ses Illetes beach is probably the most representative feature of Formentera’s spectacular coastline.
This beach is located within Ses Salines de Eivissa and Formentera Natural Park, occupying a large area of the Es Trucadors peninsula, the extreme north of the island of Formentera, and facing west. There are more than 450 metres of beach divided into two parts by a small rocky area in the middle. Its name refers to several islets that lie off this stretch of coast and which are known by the names of: Illa de Tramuntana, Illa des Forn, Escull des Pou, Illa Redona and Escull d’en Palla. Their presence makes the landscape of this beach even more unique.
The most outstanding feature of this beach is its calm, shallow, turquoise waters, which, together with the fine white sand, create a paradisiacal landscape. Moreover, being a natural park, the surroundings are well cared for, with dune protection areas, access walkways and specific areas where you can park without causing an impact on the terrain. There are also various restaurants of different kinds to be found along these coasts. It is also an ideal beach for children, due to its safety and the different services available to visitors.
Ses Illetes is, without a doubt, one of Formentera’s most spectacular beaches and is an ideal place to have a swim in the summer or to take long walks during the colder period of the year.
