With three main party resorts on the island: San Antonio, Playa d'en Bossa, and Ibiza Town, you'll need some foolproof tips on how to get to your choice of party venue for the night.
The Discobus lowdown
The Discobus connects the main party resorts to all of the large clubs, typically running from the end of May until the end of September. Running every 30 to 45 minutes, a one-way trip costs €4 or €5, depending on which line you travel on.
Always arrive with time to spare. Especially in the height of summer, every service is incredibly popular, and queues can start forming 15 minutes before departure. When the bus is full, the doors will close.
Drinking anything (except water) while on board is generally discouraged. However, if you do feel compelled to take a drink with you, please be sure to decant your drink into a plastic bottle before you leave your holiday pad. Glass bottles and aluminium cans are prohibited on the buses.
People on the Discobus are usually pretty excitable, which is just as it should be. However, it pays to remember that a) not everyone on the bus is on their way to or from a party, and b) bus drivers have breaking points too. So please keep it clean - in every sense of the word.
Discobus routes
The L 3B operates a return circuit between San Antonio and Playa d'en Bossa. After leaving the San Antonio bus station, it then stops at these clubs: DC10, Ushuaïa Ibiza/Hï Ibiza, in that order.
The first bus departs at 16:00 (every 45 minutes) until 06:00, ensuring both daytime clubbers for Ushuaïa and night ravers are well covered. The returning bus times from Playa d'en Bossa begin at 16:45 and are on a similar schedule, although you have until 07:00 to make your return to San Antonio.
The L 3 operates a return circuit between San Antonio and Ibiza Port. After leaving San Antonio, it then stops at these clubs: [UNVRS], Amnesia, Pacha, and finally the port. If you want to be dropped in Ibiza Town for a night out, then the port stop comes after the club stops, just by McDonald's. This bus route begins later in the night at 23:45 and runs until 06:00.
If you are unsure, you can ask your fellow passengers, and your driver will often shout out the name of the club before each stop. Just make sure to listen out over the noise and ruckus, so you know where to get off.
Here is the summer 2025 timetable and prices for the Discobus. Please note this is updated every summer.
MAP | The San Antonio bus station is for all buses, including the Discobus. It is just beyond the row of buildings behind the Egg roundabout, the roof looks like a massive cheese wedge/spaceship from Star Wars. You can't miss it. Google maps.
MAP | The Ibiza Town bus starts at Pacha and then moves onto the port of Ibiza (outside McDonald's) and from there goes to the other clubs and party resorts.

The free shuttle bus
As an extra bonus for our Pacha and [UNVRS] ticket holders, you get to enjoy a free ride on the shuttle bus to these two clubbing destinations. They will be easy to spot, either wrapped in the club promotion or with a large sign in the window.
[UNVRS]
With proof of your ticket for that night's party, you can jump on a free one-way shuttle to [UNVRS], from both San Antonio (at the Bus Station) and Playa d’en Bossa (in front of Ushuaïa). Beginning at 22.45, they'll be your galactic superstar every 30 minutes throughout the night.
Pacha
For Pacha partygoers, just show your ticket for the night's event, and you'll receive a complimentary return ride from both San Antonio and Playa d'en Bossa.
From the Egg roundabout in San Antonio, buses run at 23:00, 23:30, 00:15, 01:00, 01:45, 02:30, and 03.15. Your carriage home departs at 02:30, 03:15, 04:00, 04:30, 05:00, and 05:30.
From Playa d'en Bossa bus station, buses run at 23:00, 00:00, 00:45, 01:30, 02:15, and 03:15. They then whisk you back at 02:45, 03:30, 04:30, and 05:30.
It goes without saying that you can buy all your club tickets, to every club night on the island, via our party calendar.
Other buses
Buses run throughout the day and night, servicing the entire island. Therefore, if you've missed your Discobus, or shuttle bus home, you may still be in luck. While they may not drop directly outside the clubs, they are often within walking distance. Speak to the driver when getting on, or ask other passengers, who can direct you to where to jump off nearby.
Air-conditioned and with regular connections between the major resorts, they are an easy and most affordable option to using taxis for every trip.
Please note that many buses, particularly to and from Ibiza Town, won't let you board wearing a bikini or without a top or t-shirt - rules are rules. So, if you are heading to the beach by bus, make sure to pack a sarong or bring a t-shirt, so you are covered.

More transport options
If you want to travel door-to-door, then grabbing a taxi is always an option. There are many taxi ranks in all resorts, or they can be hailed from the street when you see the green light on the roof is on.
Be aware that in summer months, they are in heavy demand, so please factor this into your timings. In particular, if you have a specified time of entry on your club ticket. If you show up late, you'll have to pay the additional cost on the door.
All taxis work on a meter basis, but it's always a good idea to ask roughly how much it's going to be so that you don't get caught short. Here is all the information about taxi fares.
Of course, you may wish to drive yourself, which means you can work to your own schedule. Just make sure you carry your licence and paperwork, and if you're driving a scooter, wear your helmet at all times. You don't want your plans halted or incur a fine for avoidable mistakes.
