Portinatx

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Portinatx (Catalan pronunciation: [purtiˈnatʃ]) is a resort on the island of Ibiza. It is located 40 minutes from the island airport in the municipality of Sant Joan de Labritja and is the most northern resort on the island.

Portinatx has been criticised by some for being remote, making it difficult to get to other parts of the island. There is a bus service to Ibiza Town (bus number 20 ) and Santa Eulària des Riu (bus number 21 ), however they only run every few hours. There is also a boat service to Es Canar and Sant Miquel, but again the service is infrequent.

Portinax has been praised for its picturesque scenery and many believe it to be the most beautiful resort on the island. Some landmarks include a Pirate tower and a lighthouse.

Portinax is a small family resort rather than a party place with warm seas off of its small beaches that remain shallow for some distance, and with several shops, bars and places to eat of various national cuisines and price brackets. It has two cash points.
