Ibiza sunsets are phenomenal! We make this experience even more breathtaking as you watch the setting sun from our exclusive catamaran whilst listening to chill out tunes and enjoying a cold glass of wine. All excursions are operated by local suppliers, are subject to availability and change, and are only bookable in resort. Please see the booking conditions for details.
With its (well deserved) reputation for fantastic, frenetic nightlife, this little Mediterranean gem has rather more to recommend it. Sure, San Antonio rocks . . . but elsewhere theres rural calm, family resorts, colourful scenery, and charming tradition. Open your eyes to the real Ibiza.

See the fossil rocks and waterfall cascade of the Can Marca cave. Allow a full day to explore Ibiza Towns medieval fortress and the UNESCO World Heritage site of its ancient Dalt Vila district.
