description Cala Mastella Overview
Cala Mastella is a small cove on the eastern coast of Ibiza in Spain's Balearic Islands, backed by pine-covered hillsides. The beach consists of sand and rocks and has minimal facilities, contributing to its quiet, undeveloped character. The cove is known for El Bigotes, a rustic family-run seafood restaurant accessible only on foot or by boat, which serves freshly caught fish. Cala Mastella is located near the village of Sant Carles de Peralta.
help Cala Mastella FAQ
Is Cala Mastella a sandy swimming beach or a rocky fishing cove?
It is a very small east-Ibiza cove with a mixture of sand, rocks, and traditional boat areas. The limited space and modest facilities make it quieter than large resort beaches such as Cala Llonga.
Do I need a reservation to eat at El Bigotes in Cala Mastella?
Yes, advance booking is strongly recommended because the waterfront restaurant is small and serves a limited lunch service. El Bigotes is particularly known for bullit de peix, followed by an Ibizan rice course.
Can I reach Cala Mastella by public bus?
Public transport is limited compared with Ibiza's main resorts, so visitors commonly arrive by car, taxi, scooter, or boat. The final approach is on narrow local roads near Sant Carles de Peralta, and parking capacity is modest.
Is Cala Mastella suitable for snorkeling?
The rocky sides and relatively sheltered water can provide good snorkeling when the sea is calm and visibility is clear. Water shoes are useful because entry areas may include stones rather than uninterrupted soft sand.
