This municipality is dotted with hidden coves, vast white sand beaches, breathtaking cliffs, and sunrises and sunsets saturated with color. It is also surrounded by a sea of islets that lend spectacular beauty to photographs, such as Vedrà, Sa Conillera, S’Illa des Bosc, S’Espartar, and Ses Bledes.
Furthermore, it boasts the island’s only natural park, with 2,500-year-old salt flats, a Phoenician settlement declared a World Heritage Site, defensive towers, charming villages, whitewashed churches, and a unique rural architecture, whose splendor stands out among plowed fields and pine forests.
Sant Josep, in short, is the ideal place to capture the essence of the Mediterranean in all its splendor.
‘Sant Josep és Foto’ and its creators
The first edition of ‘Sant Josep és Foto’ represents much more than a photography festival. It is the fruit of the passion, effort, and enthusiasm of two great enthusiasts of photography and local heritage: Joan F. Ribas and José Juan Gonzálvez, two Ibiza natives and professionals in this exciting field, who, driven by their love of images and their deep respect for the municipality of Sant Josep de sa Talaia, have set out to transform this corner of the Mediterranean into the epicenter of creative photography.
From the very beginning, they have dedicated themselves to creating an event that will not only attract photographers from all over, but will also serve as a showcase for the natural and cultural beauty of Sant Josep. Together, they work tirelessly to design a festival that combines training, inspiration, and fun, bringing together some of the best photographers in the country and a local community that takes pride in showcasing the best of its land.
