What first-timers get wrong in Ibiza
Season is everything: arriving in November means shuttered clubs, closed restaurants and no Discobus. Club tickets cost less bought online in advance than at the door, and a table is never required. Taxis are metered, scarce and cannot reliably be flagged, so use the ranks or the app. Hire cars need booking months out, and parking near the popular calas fills by ten in the morning.
Ibiza after dark
The club season opens in late April and closes in early October, and outside those months the big rooms are dark. Ushuaia runs open-air and has to stop around midnight, which is why the crowd crosses the road to Hi; Pacha, Amnesia and DC10 go to dawn. Entry typically runs 40 to 90 euro and drinks inside are punishing. The Discobus links the towns overnight.
Ibiza with kids, realistically
Families give San Antonio's West End a wide berth and base themselves in Santa Eularia, Cala Llonga or Portinatx, where the bays shelve gently and the noise stops early. Aguamar water park at Playa d'en Bossa suits primary ages. The Formentera ferry from Ibiza Town takes about half an hour and buys a beach day away from the sound systems. Dalt Vila's ramps are steep but passable.
Ibiza's museums, and which one to pick
This is not a museum island and the honest list is short. Puig des Molins, above Ibiza Town, is a Phoenician and Punic necropolis of some three thousand rock-cut tombs with a small museum on top. The archaeology museum up in Dalt Vila displays the Tanit terracottas from the Es Culleram cave, and the contemporary art museum occupies the old powder magazine. All close Mondays.
What to eat in Ibiza
Island cooking is fisherman's food rather than club food: bullit de peix, a two-part fish stew whose broth then cooks the rice, and sofrit pages, the winter meat-and-potato dish. Ask for flao, the mint and fresh-cheese tart, with hierbas ibicencas afterwards. Santa Gertrudis inland and the fishing shacks at Es Calo and Cala Mastella serve the versions worth eating.
