Chiringuito Es Cavallet

Ten minutes from Ibiza airport and fifteen from the center, between the salt flats and the Mediterranean, Chiringuito Es Cavallet has been championing a relaxed yet discerning sound since 2009. Jonathan Thorogood and Olivia Fleury founded it with a proposal of world beats, chill-out, house, and deep house for up to 800 people. Andy Baxter, Audiofly, and Craig Richards have played here, and all three share a sonic aesthetic that perfectly matches the light of Es Cavallet: warm, slow, and understated.

The venue is organized into seven distinct areas: Restaurant, Bar, Lounge, Daybeds, sun loungers directly on the sand, Little Chiringuito —an area dedicated to children's activities— and a Boutique. The main room is under a wooden and reed structure with open views of the Mediterranean; the white fabric daybeds form a row along the coastline. The sound system covers both the interior and the beach without saturating the atmosphere: it is possible to maintain a conversation anywhere in the space even during the liveliest afternoon sessions. Sunsets from the lounge have direct visibility over Es Cavallet and the neighboring salt flats.

Elegant beachwear: swimwear acceptable with a shirt or sarong, but flip-flops are prohibited in the restaurant after 19:00. Minimum age 18 years. Open from 10:00 to 21:00 from May to October, closed on Mondays. Address: Camí des Cavallet, 07818, Sant Josep de sa Talaia. There is no direct bus line; a taxi or rental car is needed to get there. Google Rating: 4.1 stars from 2,356 reviews.

The calendar includes afternoon residencies and specific world music events that set it apart from the island's nocturnal clubbing circuit. The offering is exclusively seasonal, from May to October, with daytime hours that avoid direct competition with superclubs. The children's area makes it possible for families with children to share the space with adults seeking good music and gastronomy, a combination that very few beach clubs in southern Ibiza offer successfully.
