Tips:

What makes the island of Ibiza magical are its many faces. For some years now it has sold itself as a party island. However, it offers other activities not only in this northern area but in all its corners. We recommend that you get lost in its beaches, its villages, its small bars and local shops; whether you explore it by car or by public transport.
