Location

I’m Xevi, and all the photos and texts you find in AllFormentera have come from my camera or my keyboard. After living and working two summers in Formentera and falling in love with it (I still visit the island several times every year) one day I decided to put all the information in this project.




Racó Fondo Beach (Bluebar)

This area of Migjorn beach does not have a specific name, so we have used the typical toponymy of Migjorn. Many people also know it as “the beach where the Bluebar is”.

Description of Es Racó Fondo de Migjorn

Es Racó Fondo or simply Racó Fondo is the longest beach of the whole Migjorn coast. It is a dune beach in an excellent state of preservation, wide, easily accessible from several places and with several kiosks/bars and beach restaurants that are among the most interesting of the island.

It is very wide – in some places up to 20 meters – and a wooden walkway next to the dunes connects the different areas of the sandy area in order to avoid walking on the scorching sand.

Like being in Illetas without being in Illetas

Es Racó Fondo is very similar in appearance to the two larger beaches of Illetas. Not in vain is it, as are the beaches of Illetas, a dune beach that the island of Formentera has managed to preserve perfectly.

Walkways and fences protect the dunes and the fragile vegetation that grows on them from being trampled by bathers and vacationers. The differences with Illetas are that Migjorn faces south and the beach is more exposed to the open sea with no easily visible shallow reefs.

Access to the beach of Es Racó Fondo

Since the beach is very extensive there are several accesses to it, depending on the area to which we want to go. If we have already parked we can always move around the sandy area comfortably through the wooden walkways installed on the perimeter of the sandy area.

Access kilometer 7.1 (Real Playa Restaurant)

The westernmost access to Es Racó Fondo is through the road located at kilometer 7.1 of the main road towards La Mola. Follow the directions of the Real Playa Restaurant

Access kilometer 7.8 (Bluebar)

Access to the central area of Es Racó Fondo beach is by the road located at kilometer 7.8 of the main road towards La Mola. Follow the directions to the Lucky Kiosk or Bluebar Restaurant-Club.

Access kilometer 8.5

Access to the easternmost part of the beach can be made through the dirt road at kilometer 8.5 of the road to La Mola, at the Can Dani Restaurant. Cars cannot access this area, since the parking lot at the end is so small that only motorcycles and bicycles can enter.
