What you see and do in Ibiza is largely determined by what kind of holiday you are planning. Ibiza is the perfect place for a fun family trip, a romantic getaway, a beach escape, a hen or stag do, your dream wedding, or a non-stop clubbing extravaganza. Known for its music scene and nightlife, Ibiza can keep you dancing for days while hopping from one party to the next. So from clubbing to boating, alone or in a group, you will not be short of entertainment.

Being a small, Mediterranean island, sightseeing here is a pleasure. Inland walks are as beautiful as the coastline views and the tiny towns are teeming with interesting architecture. The beaches all have their own charm and if you are the adventurous type, be sure to also explore the hidden coves down dusty roads.
Ibiza is suitable for people of all ages. The hotels are more than accommodating and the restaurants here are very welcoming to families of any size. The beaches are family friendly as long as you remember your sun screen! Many of them have playgrounds as well as water sport facilities and beach bars. The more remote bays are ideal for snorkeling and perfect for picnics.
Boating in Ibiza is much more affordable than you may think, and there are also a number of group tours you can join. Fishing trips and sunset trips can be arranged, as can a day of water sport madness. If you prefer to be on land, check out the water park, the aquarium or even go paintballing. Cloudy days are made for shopping, market visits or cultural tours. Scenic walks are beautiful and can be guided or not, whether they are along the coast, in the countryside or up through the cobbled streets of the Old Town.
Relaxation
The number one spot for relaxing in Ibiza is definitely at a secluded cove down a long, bumpy road where the water is crystal clear and there isn't a beach bar in sight! Other spots include some amazing spas, generally located at the rural hotels but also open to the public. Boat charter is the ideal way to catch some sun and enjoy the beauty of the island from the sea.
If you prefer to relax by the beach or the pool with a cocktail in your hand listening to some of your favorite tunes, then the beach clubs are for you! Ibiza is home to many holistic healers so yoga, Pilates and other wellness activities are very popular. Massages can be arranged right on the beach and meditation or sound healing sessions can be joined. For the sporty type, spend the day at the golf course or if you're more adventurous, take a hot air balloon ride, go quad biking or even scuba diving.
Partying
Ibiza is home to many of the best clubs in the world. They open their doors to thousands of fans seven nights a week, with some of the best DJ's in the world flying in especially for a set. Music-lovers crowd in to watch their heroes perform until the early hours of the morning. Those who have the stamina can go on to after parties, followed by afternoons dancing by the pool or right on the sands of their favorite beach clubs. Boat parties are also very popular here and generally include food and drink as well as a trip around our island and an unforgettable Ibiza sunset.
