Es Caló de Sant Agustí stands out as one of Formentera's most authentic and distinctive areas, exuding an unspoiled charm.
Accessing the town and its pristine beaches is straightforward—starting from Es Pujols, passing through Es Arenals and the Migjorn coast, follow the road leading to Pilar de la Mola. Along this route, a captivating, untouched paradise unfolds on your left, often recognized as "the last paradise" on the island. This serene haven, a breath of wild Formentera, offers a profound escape.
Upon arrival, the quaint port steals the spotlight, hosting traditional wooden boats emblematic of Formentera. In the early 20th century, Es Caló served as a bustling commercial port and a crucial dry dock for local fishermen's boats. Additionally, it played a pioneering role in the island's nascent tourism industry. The reference to Sant Agustí traces back to a historic settlement dating to the 14th century, once home to an Augustinian monastery that, regrettably, has vanished from the landscape.
