Ibiza Cala Salada
ast night I was at an event here in Milan and people started joking about the fact that I weren’t in Ibiza. That’s because they had been reading my recent posts and it looks like I’m on holidays now. I must admit I’m not very good at ‘live-blogging’ my life mainly because when I’m on holidays I don’t take the computer with me and I also take a total break from facebook, twitter and instagram all together. I’ve always promised myself to try and be more of a ‘live’ blogger but I never manage to keep the promise. I look at this blog more of a ‘Keeping Up with The Dolls Factory’ than the Big Brother. This is the last post from my Ibiza holidays in the ‘Keeping Up with the Holidays’ series. Vogue Fashion Night Out and Milan Fashion Week are coming up next so I will stop with the holiday posts but I have planned some more from my Mallorca holidays where I had great fun exploring and my Albania holidays that is mainly done to promote my home country 😉 .
Getting back to Ibiza I really wanted to make a post about Cala Salada because this is the beach where the locals go. At first when I read about this beach I didn’t believe there existed such a place only for ‘locals’ but once you try to get there you immediately understand. First of all getting to Cala Salada isn’t easy. There are no buses or trains that take you there. You have to get the car, the boat or in my case a taxi (20 euros fare one way). The taxi leaves you in the middle of the woods and than you have to walk a little bit to reach the beach. Reaching the beach isn’t easy either as it is surrounded by rocks so you have to climb up a mountain and than get down walking on the rocks. It looks very dangerous at first but in my case seeing a 5 years old going in front of me gave me the final push. If he can do it, I should do it. Once you get at the isolated beach there are no facilities but weirdly enough there is a lifeguard who patrols it. This beach once was used by fishermen and you could see the small building that had been built to keep the fishing boats in winter. There are no bars or restaurants but I found a guy under an umbrella who was making wonderful fresh fruit cocktails for sale. I had a great day at Cala Salada, it was a much needed break from the tourism and house music.
