Ibiza may have a reputation for being one of the liveliest islands in Europe at night, but there’s also plenty to keep you amused during the daytime and activities that will appeal to all ages – not just the party generation.

Although it’s a small island, Ibiza has a huge range of scenery including amazing long white beaches and rocky coves, as well as rolling hills and stunning mountains. There is a beautiful selection of different plants and flowers to see on the island and the best way to do this is on foot. You can join a guided tour walk and get the benefit of a local’s knowledge or you can head for the hills or coastal paths by yourself. It really is the best way to take in some of the amazing scenery and stunning views.

Ibiza is also renowned for beautiful sunsets and the best place to see the sun go down is from the water. You can hire boats to go out into the gentle Mediterranean and spend the day snorkelling and swimming from your launch. Then enjoy the sunset at the end of the day before turning back for the shore. There are also plenty of places to go water-skiing, ride a jet ski or try out windsurfing.

You can go exploring and see cultural sites such as the Necropolis del Puig des Molins – an ancient burial ground on a hillside that dates back to the seventh century BC. You can also take a trip to the mysterious island Es Verda. Two kilometres from the coast of Ibiza this island is said to be linked to the Egyptian pyramids and that the lost city of Atlantis lies below Es Verda.
