Ibiza is a destination that shines in every season, whether you're looking for sun-soaked beaches in the summer or a peaceful escape in the quieter months. Each time of year brings its own highlights, from vibrant festivals and outdoor adventures to cultural experiences and tranquil retreats. In this guide, we’ll help you plan the perfect getaway, exploring the best times to visit the island and the places you must not miss in Ibiza.
Thanks to its Mediterranean perch, Ibiza is blessed with a mild climate throughout the year. Sun-worshippers will adore the sandy beaches between June - August, the warmest months in Ibiza with 30ºC highs and 25ºC water temperatures. This peak tourist season is also prime partying time on the White Isle. Spring and fall, between 16 - 25ºC, are ideal for outdoor activities as is the winter 8 - 17 ºC, though this season is too cold for swimming.
This jewel of the Balearic Islands has festivities year round, from Carnival in February and the clubs' opening parties in May to closing parties in September and Christmas celebrations in December. To make the most of your Ibiza holidays, book an Ibiza house rental for good times with family and friends.
From June to September, Ibiza buzzes at every hour, from fun in the sun on the sandy beaches to world-class DJs and pool parties at the best clubs in the Balearic Islands. On the eastern side, Cala Llonga, near Ibiza Town, is a scenic bay surrounded by pine forests. Its sandy beaches are ideal for families, with water sports, a playground, and a mini-amusement park for little ones. Near Ibiza Town, Playa d'En Bossa, the longest beach on the island, is the place for convivial beach bars. Across the island, get epic sunset views at Cafe Mambo in Sant Antoni de Portmany.
Water sports enthusiasts will find everything from boat excursions to diving and snorkelling. Cala Conta on the west coast has protected waters that are perfect for beginners. Don't miss the colourful stalls at the hippy markets. All are in full swing in the summer - some, like Las Dalias Night market, are open all year.
In the milder seasons of spring and autumn, you'll find fewer crowds and less heat in Ibiza. This is an ideal time for family-friendly activities, like swimming and snorkelling in Sa Caleta. Surrounded by red coves, the sandy beaches have shallow waters that are perfect for little ones. Go beyond the parties to Cala Comte and Cala d'Hort, two turquoise coves encircled by pine forests. Head inland to explore the Ses Salines nature reserve or hike Sa Talaia, the island's highest peak that serves up 360-degree views.
In the north, the sleepier side of the island, escape the bright lights in Portinatx. The perfect place for laid-back Ibiza holidays, this former fishing village boasts luxury villas and resorts for relaxation and three beaches for fun in the sun.
