Attractions maps

Ibiza may have a reputation for endless nights of partying, but it is also a natural coastal haven of bays and coves and caves only accessible by kayak or canoe. With Formentera, Ibiza forms an archipelago where you can walk or cycle freely. Welcoming and tolerant, rich in cultures steeped in history, Ibiza will seduce you with its unique atmosphere.
To celebrate
You are bound to find nighttime entertainment with the atmosphere you want and the budget to suit in Ibiza.
Wild parties, the best clubs and the world’s most famous DJs are here! The party starts late, but from 3am the discotheques come alive and fill up. About fifteen venues open from May to September, mainly in Eivissa and Sant Antoni de Portmany. Among them the most famous is Pacha, with its flower power nights. Ushauaïa holds Avicci nights and Es Paradis in Sant Antoni has its famous water parties. Entrance fees are quite high, but you can easily find discount vouchers and bracelets in the shops of Dalt Vila and on Playa d’en Bossa beach. Women can get free tickets easily, (sorry lads, it's unfair, but that’s just the way it is!) The disco-bus shuttles between the trendiest clubs. San Antoni is cheaper and the atmosphere less glitzy than in Ibiza town.
If you’re not so keen on bass-lines, frantic beats and being packed like sardines in a can, the outdoor parties on the shore might be your thing. You can relax with a cocktail in the “chill-out zones” of the beach bars on Playa d’en Bossa. Relax on sun-loungers (for a fee) listening to ambient grooves.
In Sa Penya, the old port of Eivissa, you will find pleasant bars and restaurants as street performances and activities take place late into the night.
If you’re nostalgic for the seventies, there are the hippy drumming parties that take place at sunset on Benirras beach (among others). At full moon, drums resonate until the early hours, with campfires on a Sunday evening. It should be an essential part of your stay. Finally, don’t miss the atmosphere of Ibiza in September. Parties on the beach continue all night, the clubs organise their closing parties and the Formentera guitar festival brings together the finest musicians.

to be cultivated
Dalt Vila: The fortress town of Eivissa (Ibiza town) contains treasures within its ancient walls. Built in the 16th century, the fortress protected the city from invaders and pirates. Entering the fortress through the Taula gate, pick up an audio guide at the tourist office. Let yourself be guided as you wander through the medieval streets before reaching the cathedral. From here you will have an excellent view of the city. Just opposite, you can visit the Madina Yabisa, Eivissa’s history museum. You will discover the legacy left by successive occupants of the town - Phoenicians, Muslims and Catalans. At three thousand years old, the necropolis of Puig de Molins first housed the tombs of the Phoenicians before serving as a burial place for the Romans. More than 3,000 vaults were dug into the rock. The museum displays the everyday objects and jewels with which the bodies were buried, giving an insight into the life of our ancestors. In Formentera, you will discover another vestige of the past among the watchtowers which date back to Roman times. And if you want to keep the kids entertained, the aquarium in Sant Antoni de Portmany, situated in a natural cave (and ancient fisherman’s landmark), is a must.

To get some air:
Beyond the concreted towns, nature reigns supreme in Ibiza. As well as making the most of the beaches, there are numerous opportunities to admire the local flora and fauna. The caves in Can Marça in the north, Ses Salines and its birdlife in the south and the landscapes of Formentera will not fail to surprise you. It’s delightful to criss-cross the island along small roads on foot or by bike, breathing in the salt-laden air and the scent of the pines. You might even stumble across the famous blue lizards which undoubtably inspired Gaudí’s emblematic designs in Barcelona. Sunsets on the west coast are superb. The beaches in Benirras and Xarraca offer a cool and psychedelic atmosphere in a natural setting. Rocky inlets and coves are an open invitation to fans of snorkelling and diving. Fields of the endemic sea grass can be seen beneath the exceptionally clear waters. To find out more, check out our activity map and our map of Ibiza’s beaches.
to go shopping:

The old town of Dalt Vila is packed with chic, but rather expensive “ad-lib” style clothes shops. You can find all kinds of hippy paraphernalia at the Saturday market in Dalia and the Wednesday market in Es Canar. Even if junk has the upper hand, there are authentic items to be found. Every Sunday, the market in Sant Joan de Labritja is a real jamboree with concerts in the afternoon. Be aware that haggling is a national pass time, so don’t hesitate. Or rather, do hesitate as it might earn you a nice little discount.
