Best beaches in Ibiza

What’s the best thing about an island holiday? You’re literally surrounded by beaches to choose from, of course, and Ibiza beaches really set the standard when it comes to sun, sea and sand.

Top beaches include the breathtaking San Antonio Bay, the Blue Flag worthy Cala Bassa Beach, the 900m-long Talamanca Beach and the intimate cove of Puerto San Miguel.

Ibiza holidays on a budget

If you're after a cheap holiday in Ibiza you won't be disappointed, as there are plenty of hotels offering great rates and excellent value. If you’re travelling on a budget it helps to be flexible on travel dates so you can take advantage of the best prices, for example: flying on a Thursday is sometimes cheaper than a Friday flight. We know it’s not always possible to be fully flexible though; families can often only travel during school holidays. That’s where our package holidays come in – if everything is sorted for you before you fly, then there’s no need to worry about added extras.

Things to eat in Ibiza

Fresh seafood graces the menus of many Ibizan restaurants – see if you can spot the catch of the day coming in on the boats if you’re strolling near the sea. When it comes to food in Ibiza, you’ll spot loads of home-from-home pubs serving classic English breakfasts, as well as plenty of traditional restaurants serving Spanish favourites. Eat like a local with a hearty plate of arroz de Matanzas, a rice based dish similar to paella, or, if you’re in the mood for something sweeter, tuck into a slice of greixonera for dessert.
