Finally...
As well as having the time of your life, do remember it's always important to be careful especially when out at night. It's easy to get carried away and lose common sense in the moment. You're on a girls' holiday, so try to stick together.
Try not to let anyone in your group go and get cash out in the middle of the night on their own and if you are going to split up then stay in twos or threes. It is always important to be safe and savvy. See our holiday tips for women. More general tips can be found in the same section.
So, there you have it, a great selection of things to do for just you and the girls. Pack your best beachwear and night outfits and have the best Ibiza blast ever.
