Blue Marlin, Ibiza

Blue Marlin is the perhaps the definition of how to live it up Ibiza-style and has now become so popular it is almost a cliché of the rich, the famous and the beautiful, all being ferried in from their private yachts by Blue Marlin's water taxi service.

Why do they come? Well, a sprawling location that provides day and night fun, frolics and fine dining in short. It is principally outdoor with numerous beds, for which it is compulsory to share with a leggy blonde of 20 years called Tabatha, and extended sandy beach space for soaking up this Balearic bliss. (Remember Cala Jondal is a pebble beach).

There is a full on restaurant, inside space for the dark hours, where the party will rock on till 4am, often with island residents playing and Sundays have become well known for Paco Fernandez and his amazing live guitar sessions here.
