The island of Ibiza is perfectly reachable from surrounding countries for a short break. So, for a week or a long weekend, you can escape the British temperatures and warm up in the Mediterranean basin in just a few hours by plane. If you like long sea voyages, go to Ibiza by ferry and enjoy the many advantages of a boat trip. Here, you can find out more about the different means of transport to Ibiza.
The plane is undeniably the fastest way to get to Ibiza from the UK. However, it requires organisation and the plane may not be suitable for everyone: whether you are travelling with very young children or your grandparents or if you are uncomfortable flying, the journey can be difficult. It is important to note that once you land, Ibiza's airport is relatively well located in relation to the city. You will, therefore, be able to easily reach your beautiful villa and quickly find your way to the many restaurants on the island so that you can enjoy a nice meal on arrival!
If you already find yourself in mainland Europe because you are city hopping, or because you are staying at another villa elsewhere, that is even more of a reason to visit Ibiza. A boat trip is ideal if you are in the south of France or mainland Spain. A night-long boat trip offers you many advantages if not the fastest, for example, it allows you to travel by your car, which will save you extra costs once you get there and less organization concerning the schedules of the rental agencies. Moreover, the boat crossing is pleasant and allows you, once close to the coast, to admire a beautiful panorama of Ibiza while having a magnificent view of the sea, which suits people who do not like flying.
Note that a family trip by boat may be a good idea, so you will be more comfortable as you have the possibility to book a cabin with bathroom, away from the uncomfortable seats of the plane. Once there, take the time to discover the island starting with a walk-in Dalt Villa for example.
How do I get around once I'm there?
It should be noted that traffic in the citadel of Ibiza is forbidden to non-residents, but it is very easily accessible on foot anyhow. To get to beaches a little further away, you can opt for public transport or rent scooters, which will save you time and allow you to enjoy the island's scenery while you travel. Note that if you go out to enjoy a night of dancing in Ibiza, it is better to return home via the taxis offered on the island!
