Welcome to the Gate of Heaven

This enclave became famous among the hippies of the 1960s and 70s who came to marvel at its sunsets. However, the site is known in another way by the Ibizencos.

The Gate of Heaven is located in a place of outstanding natural beauty: high limestone cliffs beneath which stretches the endless blue of the sea, all surrounded by the pine trees that give the Pityusic Islands their name.

There are several theories about the origin of its name. One of my favorites is that the sunsets are so beautiful here that it feels as though “the gates of heaven” are opening.

Another equally beautiful possibility is that on calm days, you can see the sea currents flowing in the distance, “tracing paths toward the sky.”
