Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza

At the south end of Santa Eulalia beach, there’s a place where time slows down and days pass by in a haze of holiday bliss, Mediterranean and Asian flavours, and stunning sea views. Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza is the newest Ibiza beach restaurant to open its doors on this stunning stretch of coastline and it’s winning the hearts of locals and holidaymakers thanks to its laid-back luxe approach to seafront dining.

Rows of chic sunloungers, plush daybeds and dreamy parasols line the sand in front of the Ibiza beach restaurant’s terrace – the perfect place to spend the day, dipping in and out of the sea in between cocktails and meals. Whether you start the day early, then take lunch on the stylish wood-decked terrace or spend the day on the sand before a sunset or moonlit dinner gazing out to sea, there’s no right or wrong way to enjoy Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza – all the more reason to visit again.

Start with refreshing fresh juices, a chilled bottle of rosé, or some bubbles if the mood strikes. The team at Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza make diners feel completely at home, from the first sip until the very last bite of dessert, and the extensive menu offers something to suit all appetites. Start with a selection of easy-to-share plates such as wagyu carpaccio with truffle oil; authentic homemade hummus with pita and pickles; and plump Gillardeau oysters. Choose between beef or salmon tartar, or the silky marinated bluefin tataki (or indulge in all three), before moving onto the Ibiza beach restaurant’s heartier gastronomic offerings.

The Mediterranean concept of sharing meals, family style, is highly encouraged at Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza – from plates of succulent grilled squid stuffed with locally made sobrasada (sausage); and delicious flame-kissed scallops with aioli and saffron; to the house signature, Ohana crispy pork belly. A selection of mouthwatering made-to-order rice dishes are deftly served at the table, including lush lobster paella, typical mixed or seafood options and a seasonal veggie version among others.

There’s also a plethora of options coming fresh off the grill such as crispy lamb chops; impressive Friesian beef tomahawk or fall-off-the-bone barbecue-glazed pork ribs. From the sea, diners are spoilt for choice at Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza – think lobster, local rotja, wild turbot, Ibizan grouper steak ana a delicious frutti di mare linguine. Summer-fresh salads are also perfect for a day on the beach or a balmy summer night, along with colourful, freshly made sushi – one of the Ibiza beach restaurant’s specialties – that can be mixed, matched or ordered as a decadent platter.

When the sun starts to set, the ambience at Blau Sand by Ohana Ibiza shifts ever-so-slightly, as the space transforms into a magical dinner destination where the moon rises majestically out of the sea before your eyes, stars twinkle overhead and the sounds of conversations and laughter last all night long. Guests are welcome to stay long after the meal is over – sipping coffee, digestifs or cocktails before being whisked off into the Ibiza night. What remains long after the meal is over are the memories – of an Ibiza beach restaurant where for a moment in time, everything was exactly as it should be.
