Set in the Balearic Islands, Ibiza is a very popular holiday destination attracting a wide variety of visitors all year round. Particularly popular with younger visitors, due largely to its reputation as one of the worlds leading clubbing resorts, although the island still plays host to a wide variety of visitors due to its diverse offerings.

Ibiza Town.

Ibiza Town is the capital of the island and it's the place where it all happens. In many aspects it’s the center of the island, its focal point. It’s here that you’ll find most clubs, bars Cafes and restaurants. The city itself is beautifully located on top of a small hill.

Surrounded by a couple of fortresses, the stronghold still proudly dominates the bay and the harbour at her feet. There are three main area’s: The harbour and the Sa Peña quarter, the old city within the walls and the new city. All three have their own distinct and unique character.

San Antonio.

Most people arriving with package holidays are parked in huge apartment complexes in San Antonio Abad or other villages on the island - that means that the skyline of Ibiza Town is to much damaged by the cheap white and ugly flat like hotels that have already ruined by most of the ones beautiful coasts of Spain. In Ibiza Town you find small pensions and rented apartments instead.

Getting around Ibiza.

It's pretty easy to find your way around town. From the Ferry Terminal the old streets of the Sa Pena quarter bring you up to the walled old city D'Alt Vila Within the walls there’re still quite a number of medieval buildings, of which the tower of the Cathedral is by far the most impressive. Here you’ll also find the more classy restaurants, hotels and apartments.

For cheaper options you have to go down to the harbour or to one of the suburbs or other villages on the island. Just south from Ibiza Town are the suburbs of Figueretas and Playa d'en Bossa. Both have beaches, bars and restaurants.
