What to see in Ibiza

Ibiza offers far more than its world-renowned party scene. This island is a tapestry of stunning landscapes, historical treasures and unique cultural experiences, waiting to be explored. From the rustic charm of its tranquil villages to the majestic beauty of its coastlines, Ibiza presents a diverse array of sights that cater to all tastes and interests. Begin your journey in Ibiza Town, the island’s historic heart, where ancient walls tell tales of yesteryears.

The Dalt Vila, a UNESCO World Heritage site, rises above the town, its cobblestone streets winding past medieval buildings and leading to the majestic cathedral at its peak. Here, history buffs can dive deep into the island's past, exploring museums and galleries that showcase artifacts from Phoenician times to the present day.

The quieter north of the island offers a retreat into nature’s embrace. Take a hike through the lush, rolling hills of the northern countryside or visit the tranquil village of Sant Joan, where the pace of life slows to the rhythm of traditional island living.

In the north, you'll also find some of Ibiza’s most pristine beaches, like Benirràs. For those drawn to the allure of the coast, Ibiza’s beaches are varied and many. From the secluded coves of Cala d’Hort, overlooking the mysterious rock of Es Vedrà, to the shores of Playa d’en Bossa, lined with bustling bars and clubs, there’s a beach for every mood and moment. Beyond sunbathing and socializing, the island’s clear blue waters offer perfect conditions for a range of water sports, including snorkeling, diving and sailing.

Cultural enthusiasts will find plenty to adore in the traditional Ibiza festivals that animate the island throughout the year. These festivities, steeped in local customs and folklore, provide a glimpse into the soul of Ibiza, untouched by its modern party. In them, the collas of ball pagès, groups that represent traditional Ibizan dance, dress up in typical costumes and jewellery to entertain the audience to the sound of traditional musical instruments such as the castanets or the flute.

Ibiza offers a plethora of sights to discover. Beyond its glamorous nightlife and luxurious resorts, the island beckons with its rich history, stunning natural beauty and captivating cultural heritage. 'Living Ibiza' is your compass to these wonders, guiding you through an island brimming with opportunities for discovery and awe.
