Sa Pedrera de Cala D’Hort: Atlantis in Ibiza!
What it is:
What it's about:
Sa Pedrera de Cala D’Hort (the real name of Atlantis) is an old sandstone quarry that was used to build, among other things, the walls of Dalt Vila. What the quarrymen probably didn’t know is that, by extracting the blocks and taking them to Vila or Sant Antoni by ships, they were creating an equally majestic natural wonder. The cuts in the stone left eye-catching asymmetrical walls and deep gaps that become natural pools when filled with seawater. Walking through the surreal landscape is like an interactive, massive artwork that you discover as you wander around. Come and see it with your own eyes!
