The Roughest Guide To Ibiza

Filed under: Vacations Spain - 14 Nov 2009 from Tom Binns

Ibiza is the smallest of the main Balearic islands, ‘discovered’ by artists and hippies in the 1960’s. If all you know of Ibiza is the trashy TV show that play on Satellite TV then you’re in for a bit of a pleasant surprise when you come and visit. Ibiza is a partying paradise for the millions of holiday-makers who land each year; but there is also a relaxed side to Ibiza with its 18km ofbeaches where you can discover some excellent and almost deserted coves.

Although there are plenty of hotels on Ibiza and more recently a few more four and five star hotels have sprung up. I recently stayed in a three star apartment hotel in Cala LLonga, El Pinar and I was very impressed with how clean and well kept the place was. If there are a few in your party one of the best ways to get the most out of your Ibiza holiday is to rent a car.

Ibiza is the perfect if you love the warm summer sun. The island is famous for its hot summers and perfect beach weather and the sunshine is certainly plentiful during this time. In the winter the weather is colder but there’s still plenty of sun. The island tends to be deserted once the clubs shut.

San Antonio is very popular, especially to people looking to escape the unpredictable British weather and enjoy almost guaranteed summer sun. It’s full of the wrong type of tourists though if you want to get away from England. Most of the English here prefer to holiday in their football shirts.

Ibiza is not only the best party getaway in Europe but also an extraordinary holiday destination to enjoy one of the best times of your life. I would recommend the island to anyone
