Part of the Balearic Islands, Ibiza is a jewel of the Mediterranean Sea. Besides being the clubbing capital of the world, Ibiza also boasts amazing natural beauty, a superb climate and several UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Whether you want to lose yourself to dance listening to the world’s best DJs or enjoy the astoundingly clear sea, warm sun, attractive coves and eventful beaches — or a bit of everything — you have certainly come to the right place.
Ibiza is one of the most beautiful islands in Europe, and it certainly is the liveliest one. Every year more than 4 million visitors come to the island, which has just over 100,000 permanent residents. ‘Eivissa’ is the formal Catalan name and the name used by its inhabitants. The Balearic island has had many occupants over the last thousand years — from the ancient Phoenician and Carthaginian peoples to the Greeks, Moors, Turks and Catalans.
By the 60s, though, the main invaders were hippies and they established Ibiza as a place for counterculture. All left their cultural fingerprints on Ibiza with a 2,000-year-old salt industry, an old smugglers route, a hippie market and a charming old town. Today, Ibiza is more international than ever — this is evident in the many restaurants offering very different culinary experiences and in the bars and clubs with chic designs set against absolutely breathtaking scenery.
Basking in the sun on one of Ibiza's stunning beaches, swimming in crystal-clear waters and enjoying good company are some of the many reasons to visit. Whether you are here for the parties, water sports or just to get a nice tan, Ibiza certainly has the beach for you.

Ibiza's bars set the scene for the incredible nightlife to come. Drinks are a little cheaper here than in the clubs, and most bars (unlike clubs) have free entry. There are club ticket deals and sometimes promotional offers on free chupitos (shots).
Party-goers and DJs come to Ibiza from all over the world to party all night long. It is, unarguably, one of the most incredible clubbing experiences in the world.
The best time to party in Ibiza is from June through September. Club entrance fees are usually anywhere between €20–60.
