For a small island, Ibiza has plenty to show you on your holiday: beautiful beaches, enchanting countryside, history and culture.
In land you will find beautiful white washed villages, each with their own ancient church. Wander through narrow lanes, browse the local shops and then enjoy a lazy lunch on a shady terrace.
You can either hire a car or scooter and explore the island at your own pace - or choose a guided excursion where island experts show you their favourite places on Ibiza.
Hippy markets
A visit to one of the famous hippy markets is a must. At the markets you have an enormous variety to choose from: the most exotic batik wraps and clothing to tailor-made leather moccasins and a tantalising variety of East Asian silver jewellery and trinkets. If you look around you can still find some of the original hippies, although most of them have grey hair by now.
Las Salinas salt flats
One of Ibiza's most famous landmarks. On the southernmost tip of the island, the salt fields have been in use for over 2000 years. As the water evaporates during the hot summer months, a sparkling layer of pure salt is left on the bottom of the lakes. One of the most beautiful spots for sunset photos. At the end of the salt fields you'll find the beautiful beach of Las Salinas.
