Holidays in Ibiza

There’s far more to holidays in Ibiza than all-night partying. While the island’s Ibiza Town and San Antonio are two of Europe’s summer nightlife capitals, Ibiza is also home to pretty, family-friendly resorts like Portinatx and an interior of quiet hamlets with fortified medieval churches, built to protect locals from pirate attacks. 

Ibiza has historic monuments like the ancient Phoenician necropolis at Puig de Molins and the fortified old city of Ibiza Town, while the island’s restaurants serve unusual local dishes such as lobster stew and Coca, a crispy cheese-less pizza. Ibiza’s beaches also have a lot of variety, ranging from the south coast’s Cala d’Hort, with its sweeping white sands and dramatic rocky views, to the tiny, quiet cove at Cala d’en Serra in the island’s north. It’s easy to combine Ibiza holidays with a trip to the small neighbouring island of Formentera. A short ferry ride away, Formentera’s white sand beaches are among Spain’s quietest.
