Ibiza holiday: visiting Sant Antoni de Portmany

Sant Antoni de Portmany is Ibiza’s second largest town in terms of population and the chief leisure and entertainment centre on the island. It embraces the parishes of Santa Agnès de Corona, Sant Mateu d’Albarca and Sant Rafel de Forca. To the Moors it was Portumany and to the Romans, Portus Magnus. Located on a bay of the same name, it is an important terminal for ferries plying between Ibiza, Formentera and Denia (on mainland Spain). Its 14thcentury parish church warrants special mention. The beaches on the west of the island are extremely popular:Cala d’Hort, Cala Tarida, Cala Llantia, Cala Llosar, Cala Codolar, Cala Roja, Cala Comte, Cala Bassa, Cala Salada and Cala Gració.

Islas Baleares, Spain: The splendor of Ibiza

Travel. My passion. I’m a director for sales for a division of an insurance group, which  allows me to travel all over the world and one of the trips that really impacted me  was when I visited Ibiza. Dining out in this city offers plenty of low-cost options at any time of day or night. On saturday, I lunched in a Thai Restaurant which serves food so deliciously authentic it might as well be an outpost of the archipielago. But the surprise is to taste  a creamy pumpkin soup topped with tarragon chantilly. If you like walking, you may find fascinating exploring the city of Sant Antoni de Portmany. If you don’t know where you are going, any road will lead you there. – unknown
