Not sure if Ibiza is for you? Rest easy – it is! Ibiza is a clubber’s paradise. Ibiza is a family getaway. Ibiza is full of beautiful people in designer gear. Ibiza is home to hippy markets and yoga retreats. Ibiza has towns full of heaving bars and pounding music. Ibiza is a lush, green island full of outdoor activities to enjoy.

Now that we've established that Ibiza is definitely for you, read on to find out how to make the most out of this gorgeous Balearic island for your own holiday.

When is the best time to go to Ibiza?

Clubs in Ibiza generally start to open sometime in May or June but more and more nightspots emerge as time goes on. Hardcore clubbers who want the biggest selection of parties every night should aim to be here in July or August when the calendar is busiest.

Since club nights don’t really kick off until at least midnight, you’ll escape the heat even in peak summer. Closing party season from September and October can be a lot more chilled; if you have a particular DJ or club night in mind, it could be well worth planning a trip for the end of the season.

Lovers of the outdoors, travelers going on wellness retreats and anyone looking for a trip that isn't tied to the islands’ club schedule should consider coming when the clubs are closed (November to April). Not only will your break be much cheaper and quieter, but the island is a lot greener and the weather is more amenable to strenuous activities such as hiking. You’ll also get to experience a lot more local life on the island.

How long do I need for Ibiza?

With regular connections from most European countries, visiting Ibiza for a long weekend is possible for most people. And the time you spend flying here is offset somewhat by the small size of the island's international airport and the ease of getting a taxi and traveling around the island after you arrive.

To get the most out of the chill factor of the island, consider staying at least a week. Allow plenty of time to lounge on the beach or by the pool, enjoy leisurely beachside dinners, and fit in some exploration of the island’s hidden coves and the secluded northern coast.

Stay a little longer and you’ll have plenty of time to explore the dreamy island of Formentera and bake in a mix of clubbing nights and recovery days into your itinerary. Or spend days exploring markets and boutiques and take your time finding your perfect sunset spot.

Is it easy to get to Ibiza and travel around?

Ibiza’s small airport is served by numerous air routes, particularly from Spain and the UK. For a more sustainable, slow travel experience, you can take a ferry from Barcelona or Valencia year-round. Local ferries connect to other Balearic Islands that sit waiting to be explored.

The buses that connect the major towns of the island are by far the cheapest way to get around. Fares depend on the distance you travel but start from €1.50. The party-oriented DiscoBus connects the resort towns of San Antonio and Playa d'en Bossa with the major clubs, running all night throughout the season.

Taxis are usually easy to find (except after the clubs close, when you might need to wait) but the fares can rack up if you’re crisscrossing the island a lot. Your accommodation should be able to call you a cab or you can use the "Taxi Ibiza" app. Uber is not available in Ibiza (or any of the Balearic Islands).

Cycling is becoming more popular in Ibiza, but there are plenty of hills, particularly in the north of the island, so plan accordingly. No matter how you do it, having your own set of wheels will allow you to discover a lot more of the quieter side of the island.

Top things to do in Ibiza

With so much variety on the island, you could spend a long time exploring the best that Ibiza has to offer .  For those on a tight schedule though, here are the highlights.

Catch some beats

Ibiza is famous for its energetic dance music and you can’t leave without sampling it in some form. The website Ibiza Spotlight has the definitive party schedule; it's an expert voice on the kind of vibe you'll find in the different clubs, as well as other big nights out such as boat parties.

Always book ahead for the big club nights; it’s cheaper than paying on the door. As a quick rule of thumb, Ushuaïa has the most mainstream dance music names, Amnesia and Pacha are iconic venues hosting an eclectic mix of DJs, and DC10 is for hardcore dance fans.

If you’re traveling as a family or just want some chillout time, there are plenty of excellent DJs playing from midday onwards at beach clubs and restaurants, so you can enjoy the quintessential Ibiza sound even while relaxing. Watching the sunset at or near Café del Mar in San Antonio while listening to laid-back Balearic beats is a bit of an Ibiza cliché , but it’s worth making the trip at least once if you can for the atmosphere.

Dive into Ibiza’s alternative side

If we had to reduce Ibiza to an island of two halves, one would be music and the other would be the island's bohemian spirit. Ibiza has long attracted hippy types and this is reflected in two famous and long-standing hippy markets in Las Dalias and Punta Arabí.

Yoga is a staple offering everywhere on the island – indeed, both of the hotels I stayed in, Hotel Riomar and Casa Munich , offered free classes to their guests. Glamping is also becoming increasingly popular as an almost-budget accommodation option.

But as with everything on the island, there are plenty of options for a splurge. Ibiza is the setting for a vast array of retreats, where you can spend the days enjoying everything from yoga, nature walks and horse-riding to healthy eating, fitness boot camps and energy workouts. I tried out forest bathing in Ses Salines Nature Park with Jana at Yoga Balance Ibiza, who also runs guided hikes and yoga classes.

Beach-side dining

Running the full spectrum from rustic market produce to swanky restaurants with experimental fusion menus, the Ibiza dining scene has everything. Best of all, it’s easy to chow down with an incredible sea view, no matter what your budget.

Koba and Um Beach House were just two of the restaurants that I sampled in Santa Eularia, but you’ll find beach clubs with excellent restaurants anywhere on the coast, from the Experimental Beach in the lightly developed Cap d'es Falcó near Parc Natural de ses Salines to the famous El Bigotes in the north-west (where you need to clamber over rocks if you’re going on foot). For something a litle more sheltered, try the excellent poolside dining at Ibiza Town's Izakaya , who specialise in inventive Asian fusion.

Where to stay in Ibiza

A big part of choosing your own adventure in Ibiza will be deciding which part of the island to stay in, as this will also determine the vibe of your holiday.

Ibiza Town is the best spot for first-timers for an all-round Ibiza experience. The town is picturesque, with white cobblestone streets and the Balearics’ trademark pink bougainvillea flowers trailing down from the buildings. It also has the best selection of restaurants and plenty of buzzing bars, though it's far enough from the big clubs that the main part of the town doesn’t get too rowdy. Pacha is the nearest big nightspot and it's within walking distance.

Ibiza Town is also within easy reach of the beach strip at Playa d'en Bossa, which has great sand and more of a party atmosphere. There are plenty of places to stay in Playa d'en Bossa as well if you’re going on a party holiday but want a more laidback vibe than you'll find in boisterous San Antonio on the eastern side of the island.

For something that feels far more remote, consider staying on the west coast, in or near Parc Natural de ses Salines . This area feels a world away from the ritzier towns on the island and is popular for walking and bird-watching, but you can still find hidden beach clubs as you wander the coast.

I stayed at Casa Munich , which boasts three pools and good yoga and wellness facilities and feels like a secluded bubble, but is still within easy cycling distance of Playa d'en Bossa. DC10, the hardcore clubber’s venue of choice, is the closest club. It’s also a good spot for a short break as the airport is just a few minutes away by taxi.

Families or anyone in need of peace and quiet should consider Santa Eulalia for a break. This is truly the other side of Ibiza, with a quiet town and promenade,  but it's still fairly close to the airport and within easy reach of the famous hippy market in Las Dalias.

I stayed in Hotel Riomar , which offers gorgeous sea views and activities such as yoga but also has music in the afternoon and evenings either on their pool deck or in their outdoor dining area (non-residents can book in for meals and enjoy the view).

On the east side of the island, San Antonio (Sant Antoni de Portmany) is the big party town, with frantic energy. It's home to super clubs such as Es Paradis and Eden , and it's the starting point for many boat parties. Even if you’re not a clubber, it’s worth venturing here for the famous sunsets. Exploring the beaches and coves of San Antonio Bay is also highly rewarding.

How much money do I need for Ibiza?

Ibiza is one of the more expensive destinations in Spain. There are loads of upmarket restaurants and luxury boutiques where you can fritter your money away, and club nights (both tickets and drinks) can be very expensive. If you avoid both of these though, you can enjoy a reasonable mid-budget break, though you’ll have to be very careful and limit the indulgences if you’re traveling on a very strict budget.

Average prices are a little hard to pin down in Ibiza as there is often no limit to what you can spend, especially on food and drink. Here are some average ranges as a starting guide.

  • Hostel room: €50–150
  • Basic room for two: €140–350
  • Self-catering apartment (including Airbnb): €90–180
  • Bus ticket: €1.55–4.00
  • Coffee: €2.20
  • Sandwich: €5–15
  • Dinner for two: €30–200
  • Beer at the bar: €3–6
  • Club night ticket: €30–80
  • Water at a club: €6–13
  • Beer at a club: €10–14

Can I drink the tap water?

Always ask your accommodation if the tap water is potable (and be aware that even if it is, it may taste bad). Keep an eye out for public drinking fountains or water refilling stations. Water is generally scarce on the island and there’s a huge push to conserve water throughout the year so please be mindful of your overall consumption.

There’s one area where you shouldn’t skimp on the H 2 O; always factor in the water costs when you hit the clubs. Contrary to some online myths, clubs are not legally required to provide you with drinking water (though bars and restaurants are) and they will charge you accordingly. Grimace and pay up anyway: it’s essential to keep hydrated if dancing the night away in hot, crowded spaces.

The 15 Best Things to Do in Ibiza

Ibiza old town

Beyond the hippy days and techno raves, the best things to do in  Ibiza  can be attributed to the island's staggering natural beauty of windswept beaches, coves, rocky red cliffs and pine forests. Spend your days swimming and snorkeling, hiking, or renting a boat to explore hard-to-reach bays. Away from the beaches, visit the cute villages and town squares that make this  Balearic Island  beat, each with its unique vibe but full of local cafes, restaurants, and shops. With a Phoenician settlement founded in 654 BC, much of the island is steeped in history, with UNESCO heritage sites of ancient settlements dotted around. Spend some time traipsing around Ibiza Town, a labyrinth of bustling shops and restaurants with an ancient past seen in its cobbled stone streets and castle that looms large over the island. Here, we share a snapshot of things to do in Ibiza, including what to see and explore to get to know this mythical island.

Best things to do in Ibiza

View of Ibiza Town

Visit Dalt Vila and the castle of Ibiza

A World Heritage Site, Dalt Vila (Upper Town) is Ibiza Town’s old quarter. It’s located above Ibiza Town inside a magnificent ancient fortress with Renaissance town walls, cobbled stone streets and tight alleyways. Originally built to defend the island, it’s now a charming labyrinth of bustling restaurants, bars and shops such as  Annie’s Ibiza  (a favorite amongst the fashion set, including Kate Moss when she’s in town) and  La Oliva . This cheerful restaurant spills out on to the cobbled stones. Visit during the evening to see this old part of town at its liveliest.

Shopping in the old town

Go shopping

Pound the pavement around Ibiza Town for a wonderful hodgepodge of shops. Start at the newly pedestrianized boulevard of Vara De Rey, shopping at haunts like  Ruta Market , a colorful store selling affordable fun fashion. Here, you’re also surrounded by high-street stores like Massimo Dutti, Mango and Zara. Head inwards along the winding streets of Ibiza Town for a pick‘n’mix of high and low international and local fashion, including local Balearic label  Charo Ruiz . Pick up a traditional straw basket from Can Vinyes, one of the oldest basket weavers on the island, now in its third generation. For vintage finds, stop at Holala Ibiza for all manner of thrift ware, or head to  Vincenta Ganesha , a treasure trove of collectable vintage, including the original Paula’s Ibiza. Further towards the port and around the marina is where the glitzier shops live—Dior, Loewe, Dolce & Gabbana, etc.

Santa Gertrudis in ibiza

Visit the villages

Make time to visit the little villages that make up the heart and soul of the White Isle, each with its own distinct vibe. Santa Gertrudis, in the island's heart, attracts well-to-do boho-chic families and is filled with lovely restaurants, bars and stores selling perfectly fringed knick-knacks and organic cotton floaty dresses. Further east are San Carlos and Santa Eulalia. The former resembles a beautiful time-warped village with bright white buildings and an 18th-century church. Visit Bar Anita, a traditional Ibizan café that has remained unchanged since the 40s. To the west are the villages of San Jose and San Antonio. The latter may be famous for its all-out party scene, but it also has some of the island’s most stunning beaches and sunsets. South of the island, you’ll find the charming villages of Es Cubells, Sant Francesc and Sant Jordi, which have free open-air film screenings in the town square throughout July and August. Head north to Es Portinax, a tourist-heavy town now with hotels like the ultra-luxury  Six Senses Ibiza  and eclectic Los Enamorados. Don’t skip San Miguel, a quaint village with a cute selection of bars, restaurants and cafes, including Can Xicu de sa Torre, an old-school wooden Ibicencan bar.

Club Ibiza Spain

Go clubbing

In Ibiza, there is a club for everyone. For a glitzy time, head to  Club Chinois . For dinner and a cabaret, book a table at  Lío.  Get your rave on inside an old airline hanger at DC-10, which attracts the all-black techno-set. Daytime party-goers should head to  Ushuaïa ,  Destino  and  Cova Santa , or for a thumping super-club experience, visit  Hï  and  Amnesia . Then, of course, there's the one that started them all:  Pacha . It was the first club on the island, and it still pulls in a crowd from first-timers to loyal gig-goers, depending on the night. The hippy market Las Dalia now boasts one of the most exciting clubs on the island,  Akasha , featuring a roster of local and international DJs, an impeccable sound system and an intimate crowd (max 300-capacity space).

Visit the hippie markets

The hippie markets are a lovely little portal into Ibiza’s unique happy-go-lucky culture.  Punta Arabi  at Es Canar is the oldest and biggest market on the island. It’s held every Wednesday and Friday with over 500 stalls. The legendary colorful hippy market in San Carlos,  Las Dalias , is open from Saturday to Tuesday. Every Sunday, the little village of Sant Joan plays host to its cute market with organic food, crafts and clothes stalls and live music. For something more traditional, head to San Miguel Artisan Market. There are only a handful of stalls held every Thursday, but there is traditional Ibizan folk dancing and live music.

beach in Formentera

Visit Formentera

Only 45 minutes by ferry and often referred to as Ibiza’s little sister, Formentera has a lower-octane vibe. Here, life is about taking it slow. Swim off the red rocks at Caló des Mort or enjoy spiked lemonade pomadas with your toes in the sand at ramshackle kiosks that dot the beach like Kiosko 62. Rent a boat and head to Espalmador Island. Part of the Natural Park of Ses Salines of Ibiza and Formentera, it’s an uninhibited white-sand sliver of paradise surrounded by bluer-than-blue water. Or head for a long lunch at one of the many beachside restaurants such as Beso Beach , Juan y Andrea , or Casa Pacha Formentera .

Isla de Es Vedra Ibiza

Rent a boat and visit Es Vedrá and its surrounding coves

Es Vedra, the uninhabited islet that rises from the ocean, is part of the legend of Ibiza—some say its magnetic powers draw people back time and time again. Rent a boat at Cala d’Hort or Cala Tarida and make a day of it, visiting the mythical rock and surrounding coves, such as the magical Atlantis, a quarry-like rock structure opposite Es Vedrà. Or, if the conditions are ripe, kayak from Cala d’Hort to Es Vedra.

Cala Salada beach Ibiza

Visit the beaches

There are hundreds of beaches in Ibiza. Here are a few island favorites. About 6 miles southwest of Ibiza Town, you’ll find the specular red rock cliffs of Sa Caleta (Es Bol Nou) beach. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring the ruins of an ancient Phoenician settlement. Just 2 kilometres from Ibiza Town is Talamanca Beach. Its soft sand strip is dotted with low-key restaurants, cafes and the high-key Nobu Hotel. For old-school magic, head to Salinas Beach and walk to  Sa Trinxa  restaurant, where the Balearic beats spill onto the sand. The wild and windswept shore of Cala Conta in San Antonio boasts some of the best sunsets on the island and is also home to the iconic  Sunset Ashram . Equally spectacular is Cala Salada with its Listerine-blue water and slabs of red rocks, which are sprinkled with suntanned bodies in high summer. Northwest, Cala Benirrás Beach attracts hippies and families for its famous sunset drum sessions. Up north, snorkel around the rocks of the stamp-sized beach of Cala Xarraca, before finishing up at the chiringuito.

Hiking in Ibiza

Go for a hike

One of the best ways to experience the beauty of Ibiza is by foot. Like beaches, there are hundreds of hiking routes to choose from. Here are some of the scene stealers. Sa Talaia is the highest mountain in Ibiza. At 1,300 feet high, you can start the trail from the church of Sant Josep, through the beautiful countryside before taking in a 360-degree view of Ibiza. Up north, The Moscarter Lighthouse is a rocky hike that starts from a small cove in Portinax and leads you cliffside until you reach the 140-foot high summit. Or, take an intermediate hike from Cala Salada to San Antonio, which takes you past spectacular beaches such as Cala Yoga and Gracioneta. To curate your hikes and outdoor adventures, contact specialist agents and/or guides such as  Rockid .

Museu Dart Contemporani DEivissa

Visit some art galleries

The last few years have seen a boom in Ibiza’s art scene. Near the salt village of Las Salinas beach, you’ll find Le Nave Salinave . It’s an old salt warehouse turned gallery by NYC-based art collector Lio Malca – past blockbusters include an immersive Keith Haring exhibition. Wrapped in the town walls of Dalt Vila, inside an old bunker that served as an armoury, is Museu D’art Contemporani D’Eivissa (MACE). It’s a contemporary art gallery dedicated to modern work, some international and others with an Ibizan connection. Down a rocky path near Jesús is Espacio Micus , a space that started as a workshop in the 70s by abstract artist Espacio Micus. After his death, his daughter Katja turned the space into a gallery that exhibits contemporary artists alongside her father’s original work. In San Antonio, inside the eye-catching hyper-eclectic hotel Paradiso is ADDA Gallery . Founded by Anna Dimitrova, this gallery has all kinds of quirky fun installations that play with light and colour. On the San Juan road, stop at Lost Artist Ibiza farmhouse-turned-Ibiza-studio of British artist Christopher Stone, featuring his signature bronze sculptures.

Horse around

Explore Ibiza’s spectacular countryside on horseback . The White Isle has unique riding companies dotted around the island—from the mountains to the beaches—such as North Ride Ibiza and Ibiza Stud in Santa Gertrudis. For those wanting to give back, try Ibiza Horse Valley – a not-for-profit sanctuary that saves from abandonment or mistreatment. The refuge, located in a 40-hectare canyon, is to gently rehabilitate the horses, allowing them to live in a herd in a close-to-wild setting. Once physically ready, the horses re-enter the riding world. With a herd of about 17 horses, half-day group excursions are offered all year round through the mountains and valleys in the north of Ibiza. All riders from all levels are welcome.

In Ibiza, dancing and movement don’t just happen in a club or after-hours. Sober dance parties and movement circles on the White Isle are practically part of the mainstream. For those wanting to lose themselves in dance and connect with others in a safe space, check out the Ecstatic Dance Ibiza Tribe and their timetable of events in various locations with killer sound systems and DJs. For those wanting to have more of a workout, check out Primal Moves . Now a global phenomenon, Primal Moves was started in Ibiza by Nick Brewer, a former prisoner who uses the movements of yoga, pilates and full-body locomotive patterns to form this bendy cult workout.

Pool at Six Senses Ibiza

Look inward

Ibiza is well-known as the capital of alternative new-age therapies, with many believing the island has a unique healing energy. There is something for everyone, from shamans to chakra healers and everything in between. Six Senses Ibiza is fast becoming known as a luxury wellness HQ, with retreats throughout the year that bring together the best of the best from around the world for talks, classes and reflections. Jeremie Quidu is on every yogi's speed dial for those wanting private group classes and specializes in everything from sound meditation and crystal therapy to healing circles.

Discover the unique flora of the White Isle at Ibiza Biotechnological Botanical (also known as Bibo Park). One of Europe's most technologically advanced botanical gardens, there are over 30,000 plants on-site that range from rare to medicinal and even musical (the world’s first ‘vegetable piano’ lives here). The park is dedicated to biotech and interesting on-the-go experiments, such as plant-powered biological batteries for smartphones and a drinkable H2O machine that allows you to drink water straight from the sky. Away from the science, it’s a space to promote the general ecology of the area—there are pine forests to zen out in and loads of activities on offer, such as guided tours, seed planting, and bird watching.

Cala Benirras Beach Ibiza

Find your inner hippy

What started as a peaceful anti-war protest in the ’90s still gathers peace lovers and hippies to Benirras beach every Sunday to dance and beat drums to the rhythm of the spectacular sunset. Everyone is welcome, and during high season, you can expect hundreds on the beach, all dancing hypnotically as the sun slips below the horizon.
