Ferry to Ibiza - timetables and prices (2023)

Pack your bags and boardraft to Ibizato witness a unique experience on the world's most energetic and famous party island in the Balearic Islands!

Ibiza or Eivissa, named by the locals in Catalan, is one of the 5 Balearic Islands (Majorca, Menorca, Formentera, Cabrera), located south of Barcelona and east of Valencia, on the Spanish mainland. In addition, the Formentera Pityusic Islands (Pitiusas) or Pine Islands are formed. It is the 3rd largest of its sisters and is the focus of young tourists looking to party into the wee hours, often referred to as the "Party Capital of Europe" and the "White Island". Ibiza has great clubs and hosts parties/festivals like nowhere else in the world, but remember that the island has much more to offer than just clubs and dancing. With a little research, people can see that there are many other things to do in Ibiza. It is also an ideal destination for those with families, especially in the northern part of the country. Months like September, October and those before May are probably the best season for those traveling to Ibiza in search of relaxation combined with a perfect Mediterranean climate.

By 1930, the island had become a peaceful haven for nonconformist refugees seeking freedom from the authoritarian status quo. Still untouched by tourism, it gradually transformed into a hippie resort where people felt free to express their talents in the arts (crafts, ceramics, musical instruments, costume jewelry and much more). The island's popularity began to increase enormously after the 70's due to its clubbing, but also cultural profile. It's the year when the 3 world-renowned legendary clubs opened their doors, Pacha, Amnesia and the biggest nightclub in the world, Ku Club (now Privilege).

It is worth mentioning that Ibiza is a proud owner of a beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site and this is another reason why it attracts thousands of tourists every year. Regardless of party lovers, whoever gives it the opportunity to show off its other qualities does not regret it and confirms that the island has many more secrets to discover.

The island of Ibiza offers excellent well-developed infrastructure such as hospitals, medical centres, shops, grocery stores, the airport, all types of accommodation and frequent public transport services.
