One of Ibiza's must-see attractions is Dalt Vila, the island's historic Old Town. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a labyrinth of cobbled streets, whitewashed buildings, and ancient city walls that date back to Phoenician times. The Cathedral of Santa Maria, perched atop the hill, offers panoramic views over the island and sea.
Another highlight is Es Vedra, a striking rocky island off Ibiza's southwest coast. Steeped in legend and mythology, Es Vedra is often associated with mystical energy and is a fantastic spot for sunset viewing. You can admire it from the viewpoint near Cala d'Hort beach or take a boat tour to see it up close.
For beach lovers, Las Salinas Beach is a top choice, known for its golden sands, clear waters, and vibrant beach clubs. If you prefer a quieter experience, Cala Comte offers some of the island's most beautiful turquoise waters and breathtaking sunsets, while Cala Xarraca is a hidden gem perfect for snorkeling.
While Ibiza’s nightlife is legendary, there's much more to do beyond the clubs. Boat tours and yacht charters are a fantastic way to explore Ibiza's coastline, with many excursions stopping at hidden coves or heading to nearby Formentera, an island known for its pristine beaches.
For adventure seekers, scuba diving and snorkeling offer the chance to discover Ibiza's underwater world, including caves, shipwrecks, and marine life. Dive sites like Don Pedro, one of the largest shipwrecks in Europe, are popular among experienced divers.
If you're looking for a more relaxed experience, hiking and exploring the island's rural side are great options. The trails around Sa Talaia, Ibiza's highest point, offer stunning views of the island. You can also visit inland villages like Santa Gertrudis or San Carlos to experience Ibiza's traditional side.
