Es Cavall d'en Borràs West offers a delightful counterpoint to its more central, often livelier sections. This western stretch, easily accessible from La Savina, presents a wider expanse of soft, golden sand, gently sloping into the famously clear, shallow waters of Formentera. It's a beach that invites long, leisurely strolls, sandcastle building, and peaceful dips in the Mediterranean, all without the dense crowds that can sometimes characterize other popular spots.
