Mystical places in Ibiza
CONNECT WITH THE MAGIC OF IBIZA: MYSTICAL PLACES NOT TO BE MISSED
From the Hostal Rosell Boutique team, we invite you to discover the most enigmatic and spiritual side of Ibiza. Beyond its beaches and parties, the island holds places full of mystery, legends and ancestral energy, get ready for a unique journey through the most mystical places of Ibiza.
ES VEDRÀ
This iconic rock off the coast of Ibiza is one of the most photographed and mysterious places on the island. Surrounded by legends, it is attributed with phenomena such as UFO sightings and a powerful telluric energy that attracts curious people from all over the world.
Much of its mysticism is due to Blessed Francisco Palau y Quer (1811-1872), founder of the Carmelite Tertiaries, who spent long periods of time on the island in deep prayer and spiritual retreat.
Father Palau recounted experiences with “ladies of light” and “celestial beings”, visions that, some time later and as a result of the famous “Manises case”, some reinterpreted as possible encounters with UFOs. Es Vedrà remains a symbol of mystery and spirituality in Ibiza.
Sa Pedrera de Cala d’Hort (Atlantis)
Although many know it as Atlantis, Ibizans call it by its real name: Sa Pedrera de Cala d'Hort. This hidden cove, which is accessed down a small rocky cliff, is a real place of pilgrimage for those looking for special places.
Every day, dozens of visitors venture to find it to enjoy its turquoise waters, rock formations and natural pools that dot the landscape.
Legend has it that Sa Pedrera is a fragment of the mythical Atlantis. And even if it is not true, its geometric rocks, cubic shapes and sculptures carved into the stone feed the imagination and mysticism of all who come here.
Cueva des Culleram
Hidden in a lush forest of Sant Vicent, the Cueva des Culleram is a place steeped in history and spirituality. It was an important sanctuary in honor of Tanit, the Carthaginian goddess of fertility and life, venerated by the ancient inhabitants of Ibiza.
Figures, amulets and remains of offerings have been found inside, proof of the cult that was celebrated here more than two thousand years ago. The energy of the place continues to beat in its walls and in the calm that surrounds it.
Visiting the Culleram Cave is a way to connect with the most ancestral and magical Ibiza, a journey back in time to the spiritual roots of the island.
Isla de Tagomago
Off the east coast of Ibiza stands Tagomago, a private island shrouded in mystery and legend. Its name may derive from the Carthaginian god Baal-Hammon, suggesting that in ancient times it was a sacred place of worship.
The isolation, steep cliffs and wilderness have fueled stories of secret rituals and ancient energies that still seem to hang in the air.
In addition, Tagomago is surrounded by tales of pirates and hidden treasures, making it a perfect enclave for those seeking the most unknown and legendary Ibiza.
Cave of Light
Hidden among the cliffs of Cala Aubarca, the Cueva de la Luz is one of the best kept natural secrets of Ibiza. It is a rocky cavity that hides inside a spectacular lake of crystal clear water, illuminated by the natural light that enters from above.
Its access is complicated and reserved for the most adventurous, which further reinforces its aura of mystery. Many consider it a natural portal, where the reflection of water and rock creates an almost hypnotic effect.
To immerse oneself in the Cave of Light is to live a unique experience, between the strength of nature and the energy that envelops the whole place.
We hope this tour through the most mystical corners of Ibiza awakens your curiosity and your senses. Each place is an open door to history, spirituality and the unique energy that surrounds our island.
