Ibiza

At a glance

Ibiza - Eivissa in Catalan - is invaded every summer by a multinational force of hedonistic sunseekers. It has fine beaches, relentless sunshine, good food and wild nightlife. Inland, the landscape is harsh, dry and rocky. Beachside, discos, clubs and bars ensure the place never stops buzzing.

Unlike many other glittering resort communities, however, Ibiza City is actually a living, breathing town with an interesting old quarter. But most people head for the throbbing disco complexes, vast temples to hedonism that you should really check out even if it isn't your scene.
