Speaking of Sant Josep de Sa Talaia is talk about one of the largest island, with a very important source of resources, both economic and touristic. It is to speak of a cultural legacy of the most extensive on the island. It is, without a doubt, the greater relevance of the island municipality.
How to reach Sant Josep de Sa Talaia.
If we speak of the municipal district, just her landing. The airport is within Sant Josep, in an extension that covers from Beach d ‘ in Bossa, next to Ibiza, until Port des Torrent. In this huge piece of Coast we will find the beaches of Salines and is stand, in the natural reserve of Ses Salines. Cross the vast expanse of Es Codolar to immerse us in small coves. Sa Caleta, Cala Jondal and is Xarcu. Is here where its coast is back steep and inaccessible, giving place to the mysticism of is Cubells. The punta de Sa Pedrera Crown this stretch coastal with them imposing islets of is Vedra and is Vedranell. From this point, again the low coast and the delight of the sunsets in Cala D’hort. Cala Vadella, Cala Moli, Cala Tarida, Cala Codolar, the beaches of Comte, Cala Bassa, and finally Port des Torrent.
History has left its mark in the archaeological site of Sa Caleta and Cala Ses countries site d´Hort. And is that this coast always had a great significance in the life of the island. But even us remains a doubt. Where is Sant Josep de Sa Talaia? This town owes its name to the highest point of the island. Sa Talaia is a mound of four hundred seventy and five meters to Crown a group mountain. From its top, overlooking the coast of Sant Josep are simply spectacular. Formentera seems to be there in the front, and the orography of the coast becomes much more understandable.
The urban core we still do not have news. To do so will have to take the old road to the salt industry with Sant Antoni Portmany des. Located nine kilometers of Sant Antoni, and eleven of the airport, the population is distributed on both side of the main street. Closer, the terrain becomes inclined, dominating the Valley.
That I find in Sant Josep de Sa Talaia.
A former village, which still retains lots of flavor from the ibizas of our grandparents. Away from the beach, tourism has not dent in this historic place. Despite being municipalities that produces more wealth, Sant Josep is a simple and quiet place where only the Church of Sant Josep and views gain consideration.
The Church is perhaps one of the most emblematic places. Not only for having been the center of a meeting of the inhabitants of the area for centuries. Built in the eighteenth century, it suffered severely the consequences of the civil war, being almost devastated and restored later. With the passage of the years, has not lost its position of importance, in the highest area of the town.
Sant Josep de sa Talaia is the birth of an urban nucleus in place. A corner where the beasts drink and sleep Walker. A haven of tranquility that still preserved.
