Known worldwide as the ultimate party island, Ibiza offers much more than vibrant nightclubs and lively beach parties. The island combines rich culture, history and breathtaking nature, making it a versatile destination for any traveller.

Historical treasures: Dalt Vila

At the heart of Ibiza town is Dalt Vila, an imposing walled city that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dalt Vila offers a fascinating journey through time, with its narrow streets, ancient squares and historical monuments. The city walls, built in the 16th century to protect against pirates, surround an area full of sights, including the impressive Ibiza Cathedral and the Museo Arqueológico de Ibiza y Formentera. A visit to Dalt Vila is a must for anyone interested in the island’s rich history.

Natural wonders: Es Vedrà and Cala Comte

One of Ibiza’s most mysterious and iconic sights is Es Vedrà, an imposing rock island just off the west coast. Surrounded by myths and legends, Es Vedrà is considered a spiritual place with special energy. Although the island itself is not accessible, you can enjoy the spectacular views from Cala d’Hort beach or the nearby cliffs.

For those looking for paradisiacal beaches, Cala Comte is one of the most beautiful spots on the island. Its crystal-clear waters and white sand make it an ideal place to relax. The beach also offers stunning views of the surrounding islets and is known for its breathtaking sunsets. It is a favourite spot for locals and tourists alike to end the day with a drink at one of the cosy beach bars.

Culturele ervaringen: Las Dalias Hippy Market

One of the most colourful and vibrant experiences in Ibiza is a visit to the Las Dalias Hippy Market in San Carlos. This market, which takes place every Saturday, is a symbol of the bohemian culture that makes Ibiza so unique. Here you can buy handmade jewellery, artwork and clothes, while enjoying live music and the relaxed atmosphere. Offering the perfect mix of shopping, food and culture, Las Dalias is a place where Ibiza’s creative soul really comes alive.

‘In Ibiza you will find a perfect balance between history, nature and party, making every day a new adventure.’
