Playa de ses Illetes, Formentera, the most beautiful beach in Europe.

Of course the most beautiful beach of Formentera is Playa de ses Illetes, located in the Natural Park of Saline (UNESCO), on the western side of the peninsula Trucador, between Punta des Pas and Plageta des Carregador, behind Platja de Llevant .
Playa de ses Illetes literally means beach of the  little islands, because it's rounded by various islets that dampen the entry of waves and currents, making it a real natural pool. You can not say the same for Platja de Llevant, on the east side, that's exposed to currents and strong breezes and  represents the ideal location for surfers, windsurfers and kitesurfing.
Thanks to the fine white sand, with shades of pink and turquoise water, ses Illetes allows us to understand what means to be in a true paradise on earth: it's a real paradise, easy to reach with a one-way ticket, because nobody wants to came back home!!
The seabed is a real prairie poseidonie stated, also, World Heritage Site, ideal for those who enjoy snorkeling and scuba diving, although threatened by suction anchors of the luxurious yachts moor, in summer, in the bay .
Since the beach is situated inside the natural park to access it, if you use motorized vehicles (scooters, quads, motorcycles and cars), you must pay a toll, on the contrary nothing is due to pedestrian access, with public buses, bicycles and taxis.

Rates change according to the season, low-medium-high season, such as changing from a minimum of € 2.00 = in June to a maximum of € 4,00 = in July-August for scooters, rather than a sum equal to € 8,00 = for cars in the month of July-August. The ticket is valid for a full day from 9 am to 19 pm.

Alternatively, for those who are on holiday on the island of Ibiza there is the possibility of day trips from the port of Ibiza, Playa den Bossa or Figueretas to the port of La Savina Formentera, or directly on the beach of Ses Illetes. This definitely represents an opportunity to diversify the holiday and visit the nearby Formentera and the beautiful Ses Illetes.

Here's to you some code to get a discount on the price for online purchase of boat tickets, which, for non-residents, sometimes are more extensive than the air flight tickets:
-> Promotional code 2016_MAYSI € 37.38 = roundtrip for on-line bookings, as well as free bus to the harbor and back, on www.trasmapi.com site;
-> Promotional code ESTATE123 € 37.80= roundtrip for on-line bookings, on the site www.mediterraneapitiusa.com/en/;

What else?? Ses Illetes is one of those places to visit at least once in life, a true paradise on earth, that everyone can reach!!
See you next Nina.
