Cala Benirràs
A hippie cove on the north coast famous for its Sunday sunset drum circle, with a rock at the mouth of the bay shaped like a praying hand.
Cala Benirràs lies on Ibiza's north coast, surrounded by pine-covered hills. At the mouth of the bay stands a rock known as the “Praying Hand” or the “Sphinx.” Since the 1960s, hippies have gathered on the beach on Sunday evenings to drum farewell to the sunset. This drum circle tradition continues today and has become a symbol of Ibiza's hippie culture. There are two or three restaurants in the bay. In summer, mountain roads get congested on Sundays, and in peak-season weekends parking is restricted, so arrive early or take the shuttle bus.
