Ibiza holidays

Blissful beaches meet shimmering sunsets on this beautiful boho island, where a contrast of superclubs and family-flavoured resorts sit side by side. The White Isle may be famed for its party scene in the likes of San Antonio, but there’s a sleepier side of traditional towns, secret coves and pine-coated hills to leave you feeling zen. Resorts come in all shapes and sizes. Playa d’En Bossa has a playful spirit with its watersports and buzzy beach bars, while Playa Es Cana’s Hippy Market will stir your senses and Santa Eulalia’s the place to go gourmet. For heaps of history mixed with a slice of sophistication, it’s got to be oh-so cool Ibiza Town.

One island, two stories

When researching things to do in Ibiza, partying might be the most famous pass time. But stray away from the main resorts and you’ll find oodles of traditional charm and unspoiled natural beauty. It’s a hangout for hippies too, and there are still several bohemian enclaves dotted about the island.

Clubbing paradise

Ibiza clubs are second to none, drawing in hordes of dance aficionados with its world-class DJs and big-name clubs like Pacha. And that’s not to mention the legendary beach parties – get down to the bass-fuelled grooves on these sizzling sands. Stay up for one sensational all-nighter.

Traditional ways

Away from the bright lights of the party towns, traditional hamlets dot the countryside, many of them barely changed in centuries. Then there’s the island’s capital, Ibiza Town, with its UNESCO-listed old quarter crammed full of fascinating medieval architecture. There’s so much history to get to know under the surface.

San Antonio Bay

Along the west coast, this blissful bay is the place to be. With its stunning beaches, turquoise blue sea and sandy coves, San Antonio Bay is the quieter, more tranquil sibling of San Antonio town.

Playa Es Cana

A relaxed seaside with cosy coves, Playa Es Cana is completely gorgeous and every bit a top beach pick.

San Antonio

Clubbing, clubbing and more clubbing – San Antonio is in touch with its after-dark nature and it doesn’t let up.

Santa Eulalia

Experience the quieter side of Ibiza here in Santa Eulalia.

Playa D’En Bossa

This south-eastern coastal spot is great day and night. Get ready for pumping clubs after the sun sets, but seek out the rays and you’ll have no problem topping up your tan.

Playa Es Figueral

Less about partying and more about chilling in the sun, Playa Es Figueral takes things at a go-slow pace.

Portinatx

Tucked away in the scenic northern corner of the island, Portinatx is set around a bay of sparkling blues and aquamarines.

San Miguel (Ibiza)

Dramatic cliffs peep out of thick, dense greenery in this sleepy Spanish resort.

Cala Llonga (Ibiza)

If you aren’t in pursuit of hedonistic parties, don’t fret – Ibiza’s got some more reserved resorts to suit nature-seekers.

Cala Gracio (San Antonio)

Your own pocket of beach is waiting. Think lounging by calm waves and drinking in scenes of rocky areas and forest-lined, secluded spots – that’s what’s on offer in Cal Gracio.

Playa De Talamanca

Keep calm and enjoy some peace and quiet in these parts, or check out what’s further along the south-east coast and indulge in the island’s wild side.

Cala Tarida

Thanks to restaurant balconies spilling down to the turquoise-tinted seafront, this chilled, west-coast cove is as pretty as they come.

Beaches

Ibiza is blessed with a string of soft, sandy beaches. The bigger stretches tend to be lively spots like Playa d’en Bossa and Las Salinas, filled with sun worshippers and banana boats. If you fancy something more low-key, beach-hop around the tiny ‘calas’ hidden among cliffs on the south-west coast.

Sights

Ibiza Town’s old quarter is brimming with history. A UNESCO World Heritage site, its narrow cobbled streets are guarded by vast medieval walls – an impressive sight in themselves. The imposing 13th-century cathedral of Santa Maria d’Eivissa is top of the must-visit list, closely followed by the Almudaina Castle with its breathtaking views.

Activities

Watersports fans are in heaven on this fun-loving island. The tick-list includes everything from windsurfing to wakeboarding. If you prefer dry land, head north to find great hiking and biking routes in the forested mountains. Or, jump on a boat trip out to Ibiza’s littler sibling, Formentera.
