I envy you if you haven’t yet visited the island of Ibiza. You’re about to enjoy, explore, and discover every corner of this wonderful island, which for us locals may feel almost everyday but never ceases to amaze us.
In this Ibiza guide, I’ve thought about those landing for the very first time on the island. I can imagine what it’s like to discover Platges d’en Comte for the first time or to be awestruck by the majestic walls of Dalt Vila: overwhelming, breathtaking… If you don’t know these places yet, you’re in the right spot. And if you’ve already been, here you’ll find more than just the “touristy” spots. I’m here to help you uncover all the secrets of Ibiza.
Ibiza is a thousand worlds in one small island: in just a few minutes, you can be on a white sandy beach with deep blue waters, enjoying a drink on a terrace in the historic center, exploring a charming whitewashed village, or browsing treasures at a hippie market. And of course, you can also experience the night at one of our iconic clubs. Every step here, Ibiza has something new to surprise you with.
But before you start, I’d like to ask you something important: enjoy and take care of our island. Ibiza is a unique paradise, but its ecosystem is fragile, and each year, many people come to experience it. Do your part to preserve its beauty. The more you discover it, the more you’ll fall in love with its landscapes, culture, and people. Explore it and take care of it!
