Aigües Blanques
Aigües Blanques in the Ibizan language or Aguas Blancas in Spanish is a dream come true. Its name means white waters which explains the clarity of its turquoise sea and fine white sand.
It is among Ibiza’s few officially nudist beaches. Although in Ibiza, it is common to find nudists in some areas, ‘officially nudist’ means that there are freedom and tolerance for those who practice it.

Did you know?
Ibiza became a haven for the hippie culture in the sixties, with many young Europeans and Americans seeking a refuge on the island to share their sense of independence. Most of them settled in the village of San Carlos, in the northwest of the island. When they explored that area, they found the Aguas Blancas beach, which they opened as a nudist beach. This has since become a spot to experience the freedom to sunbathe and swim without clothes but with reverence.
What to see:
The most practical way to get to Aguas Blancas is by car, so you can visit the nearby beaches, such as the beautiful Cala Sant Vicent, a jewel of the Mediterranean, which also has interesting bars.
