Bliss
“On the beach, you can live in bliss.”
Dennis Wilson – Beach Boys [1944 – 1983]

Bliss at Sunset

There are places where the world slows down. Where time bends to light, and light turns everything golden. Migjorn Beach, in Formentera, is one of those rare places.

Stretching across much of the island’s southern coast, from La Mola to Cap de Barbaria, Migjorn is both vast and surprisingly peaceful. Despite its beauty, it remains less visited than other beaches on the island. And that’s part of its magic.

Here, the Mediterranean feels untouched. The horizon is open. The wind moves gently across the dunes. The sun, especially at the end of the day, dissolves into a warm blur of orange and rose. It’s a light that doesn’t just illuminate, it softens, calms, and connects.

You’ll find no shortage of beach cafés and small chiringuitos here, each with their own rhythm and charm. But the real allure of Migjorn isn’t in the amenities. It’s in the feeling, the quiet, the space, the simplicity. A kind of bliss you don’t have to chase.

As a Director of Photography, I’m always chasing light. But on this beach, at sunset, the light finds you.

“Ready to turn your project into a visual journey?
BE CONNECTED. BE CREATIVE. BE INSPIRED.
Let’s create something extraordinary.”
