Beautiful island
First of all, it is a magnificent island with an incredible landscape full of lush greenery, beautiful sandy beaches, a turquoise sea, and above all, it is rich in culture.

Furthermore, not many people know that the island is not just about clubbing. 90% of the island attracts family-oriented tourism.

Original Spanish food
Ibiza’s cuisine has Spanish and Mediterranean influences. That’s why they will offer you a wide range of fish.

Since Ibiza is a famous destination, you can find many international restaurants too, varying from luxury restaurants to simple, fast foods.
Best LGBT+ parties and events
If you want the best of both worlds: great weather and plenty of action, June is the month to come to Ibiza. The principal weekly party nights have kicked off by mid-month in the clubs. Additionally, it is also the time for the Ibiza pride.
