Beach bars

Beach bars, also known as “chiringuitos” in Spanish, have always been a distinctive feature of the island of Formentera. Renovated in 2024 following a competition for the change of concessions, they continue to attract numerous tourists and residents.

Thanks to their privileged location a few steps from the sea, beach bars are an integral part of Formentera’s history: once a meeting place for hippies and the first visitors who discovered the island in the 1980s, today they embody the most authentic soul of this corner of paradise.

Perfect for a quick lunch during the day or a drink at sunset, beach bars are an experience to try at least once in a lifetime. Below, a selection of the unmissable ones.

GITANA: located on the beautiful Migjorn beach, just past km 11, the Gitana beach bar (formerly known as Kiosko La Franja) is the ideal place for a lunch break or, even better, for an aperitif in authentic hippy style. Small and meticulously detailed, Gitana immediately reveals its free spirit: ethnic rugs, the staff’s colorful uniforms, and other exotic touches will transport you to a timeless atmosphere where the watchwords are relaxation and conviviality.
Managed by experienced professionals who also run other venues on the island, such as the Malaguena restaurant, Gitana invites you to enjoy the magnificent view of the Migjorn sea. Imagine yourself barefoot, sun-kissed, and with a cocktail in hand.

KARAI: this beach bar stands where the historic Kiosko 62 once stood, at km 6.2 of Migjorn. Although renovated to comply with the new beach concessions, it has managed to preserve the lively and authentic spirit that has always distinguished it. Frequented from the early hours of the day, Karai offers the possibility of having lunch in the shade of a gazebo with a sea view, or enjoying a drink with friends, admiring the sunset.
Managed by a team of energetic young Italians, Karai is the ideal place to spend carefree days, between a dip in the water and an ice-cold beer. The menu offers inviting burgers and tasty tapas to share with friends. Why choose it? Because its motto, “Karai qué guay!”, promises an unforgettable experience.

KM11: located at Km 11 on Migjorn beach, this beach bar carries on the legacy of the famous Piratabus. With its informal style, it preserves a precious heritage, etched in the memories of those who frequented the island in the years prior to 2024. Piratabus was renowned not only for its mojito, but also for the iconic notes of “Con te partirò” which, every day at sunset, echoed from the speakers on the cliff.
Today, despite the changes, KM11 retains the same close-knit staff as Piratabus and that hippy atmosphere that has always set it apart. Whether you are regulars or new visitors, an aperitif in this revamped chiringuito is an unmissable experience during a stay in Formentera.

BRISS: among the most exciting novelties of 2024, the Briss beach bar stands out, located in a privileged position on the beach of Es Pujols. With its wooden structure, harmoniously integrated into the landscape, this venue replaces the lesser-known S’Abeuradeta chiringuito, which was located in a more secluded area.
Open from the early hours of the morning until sunset, Briss is the ideal place to find shelter from the summer sun and enjoy a meal with friends. However, it is at aperitif time that this venue attracts the largest number of visitors. The proximity to the wooden walkway, the same one that leads to the renowned Chezz Gerdi restaurant, located a little further on, allows anyone to enjoy an excellent cocktail while comfortably seated, waiting for the sunset.

[A] Mar: on the southern coast of Formentera, specifically at km 7.8 of Migjorn beach, the new beach bar [A] Mar has opened its doors. This venue takes the place of the historic Lucky kiosk, which for years welcomed tourists seeking relaxation and fun. Although a piece of Formentera’s history has vanished, a new chapter has begun.
With an enviable location just a few steps from the sea, the [A] Mar chiringuito blends perfectly into the island’s marvelous natural landscape. Furthermore, the decor is the result of a prestigious collaboration with Sol Courreges Bone, one of Formentera’s most renowned artists. If you desire an unforgettable experience with your feet immersed in the sand, [A] Mar is the ideal destination.
