The Torrent de s'Alga is located on the east coast of Cap de Barbaria.

Open your eyes wide when you reach the cove. Torrent de S'Alga, characteristic for its well-preserved dry docks where fishermen shelter their small boats from the sea and rain. Our attention will be drawn to the branches of juniper stripped and dry nailed to the stone by the sea. From them hang fish with meticulous wooden structures that cross them. This is a traditional technique used by fishermen to dry the fish in order to take advantage of it and consume it all year round. Once dried, it is roasted over a fire, crumbled and preserved in glass containers with olive oil, becoming "peix sec", the star ingredient of the "ensalada payesa", which can be tasted in many restaurants on the island. From here you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view of the coast of Migjorn and the cliff of La Mola. The dried fish of Formentera, is a very old tradition used for the preservation of fish, which allows it to be consumed throughout the year.
