Fantastic experience: Cala Olivera is a beautiful and tranquil beach located on the island of Ibiza, Spain. It is known for its pristine turquoise waters, soft sandy shoreline, and a generally peaceful atmosphere, making it a popular spot for those seeking relaxation away from the busier tourist areas. Key features of Cala Olivera Ibiza: - **Location:** Situated on the southeastern coast of Ibiza, near the more bustling beaches but offering a quieter escape. - **Accessibility:** Accessible by car or boat; some pathways may involve short walks through natural surroundings. - **Amenities:** Limited facilities, so it's advisable to bring your own supplies such as water, snacks, and sun protection. - **Activities:** Ideal for swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, and enjoying the scenic views. Tips for visiting Cala Olivera: - Arrive early to secure parking and a good spot on the beach. - Respect the natural environment and avoid leaving any waste behind. - Consider visiting during weekdays or outside peak season for a more secluded experience. If you're planning a trip, combine your visit to Cala Olivera with exploring nearby beaches and natural attractions for a memorable Ibiza experience.
Positive experience: Very small, wild beach. Lots of seaweed, maybe due to the bad weather in the morning. The view is beautiful. The dirt road for the last kilometer is ugly. Parking is a hundred meters from the beach. Many rocks to lean on besides the small sandy beach. A very nice and typical bar. The beach has no lifeguard. Clean and crystal clear water.
Positive experience: small quiet beach with two small parking lots we arrived at 10am great we were once again alone in the world about ten people on the beach the water was a bit cool 23 degrees some pebbles in the water some fish as well and we were able to spot a small octopus. a lot of dried seaweed on the beach, but it doesn’t spoil the beautiful scenery, translucent water with different shades of blue no sunbeds on the beach great for once, and a small restaurant that we didn’t try.
Positive experience: It's very beautiful and cozy. The downside is that it's very full of seaweed and I don't think it's something exceptional since there was a lot on the shore. The beach bar is next door, but it closes on Mondays. You need to bring something if you want to drink. The parking is fine, you can get right to the cove.
Positive experience: Goat path like almost all the coves in Ibiza. It has a beach bar. It has dry seaweed but it's pretty. I like it for having a drink more than for staying.

Negative experience: I sat at a table that had leftover paper from whoever had sat there before, they told me to sit down, they never cleaned the remnants from the previous person who ate at the same table, it took 40 minutes to bring me a burger, I ordered it with salad, when it arrived, it had fries, and when I ate it, it was raw! I don't see any dynamism in the service or willingness. They also made mistakes at several tables because I can hear them! I hope they can improve because it is an incredible place to make the most of it!
Positive experience: Spectacular cove. Very quiet. Water quite clean.

Negative experience: Nothing out of this world
Fantastic experience: It's already one of my favorites

Fantastic experience: A cove that looks like it's from a movie, it's amazing for taking photos, I would definitely go back.
Positive experience: It's ok... Nothing special imo. When we went there were groups of very loud people who took up a lot of space, shouting on the phone etc. Parking isn't large.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful small sandy cove surrounded by rocks and pine forest. Nice bar restaurant.

Fantastic experience: Lovely beach and not too crowded
Fantastic experience: One of my favorite beaches
Fantastic experience: It’s a beautiful calm and clear beach. There is also a nice bar-restaurant. Just try to do a reservation when you arrive there to be able to eat on right time that you want. Fried calamar and nachos were delicious!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful Cala! Octopus at the Chiringo is really good! Fried calamares and massive spritz too!
Fantastic experience: Big up for the spot, the Chiringuito used to be much better til last year. Still one of my favourite places to chill on the island.
Fantastic experience: YOU CAN JUMP FROM THE ROCKS!!! Very very nice! The road and parking not perfect, but not too bad, we we’re driving van and it’s ok. At this beach you can jump to the water from the rocks, what is really nice, we didn’t find something like this in the entire island! Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Wonderful little sun trap off the beaten track. Best if you have a car, though there is a bus stop by the entrance to the complex you need to travel through to get to this small beach, it is a long way back uphill once you have finished. Beach bar is certainly worth a visit, milkshakes, beers and food all very good. Not overpriced for such a remote location, pleasant staff and a toilet for customers, albeit a portaloo )best one I've been in though).
Positive experience: Lovely small cove . Quiet and away from it all. There is a small Chiringuto though .
Positive experience: If you don’t have a 4 Wheel drive, don’t go there in March.
Negative experience: Don't go there. Its too nice. Keep it free.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful little place not known by many tourist but will recommend this place if you want a break from the hustle and bustle
Fantastic experience: It's worth the off road drive. Go here because it's one of Ibiza's most beautiful places.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful swimming spot with a rustic beach bar. Make sure you drive through Roca Llisa to get there. At the sharp bend after the golf course (if coming from the North) drive into the estate (google maps did not show this route as of Sept 2018)
Positive experience: Nice small beach. Sand with pebbles. Rocks in the water, with shells. Bring water shoes. Cafe was closed (July 3rd). There is a bio toilet behind the cafe.
Fantastic experience: Nice little getaway beach near Roca Lisa. There is also a small restaurant to grab a bite.
Positive experience: Nice Cala with beautiful Rocky cliffs and clear water.
