The ses Portes route, along the edge of the salt pans
Within the Parc Natural de ses Salines, protected under Law 17/2001 and shared with Formentera, the Ajuntament de Sant Josep runs the ses Portes route, which follows the seafront edge of the salt pans between ses Salines and es Cavallet beaches, with panels on their flora, fauna and history. It passes the Pou des Carbó, a well dug in 1765 that supplied water to steam boilers, and the Torre de ses Portes, built in the seventeenth century to watch over the passage between Ibiza and Formentera, and ends at the Punta des Cavallet, the old salt-loading quay. It can be started from either end, and there are shaded alternatives through the sabina woods.
