Best Time to Visit Ibiza
A Balearic island famous for its nightlife, but also for quiet coves, pine-covered hills and the UNESCO-listed old town of Ibiza Town (Dalt Vila).
Best time to visit: June and September for warm sea and fewer crowds; July and August for peak season and the club scene.
Local tip: Sunset spots on the west coast get busy — arrive early for a good place.
Getting around: Buses cover the main resorts in season; a car or scooter helps for remote coves.
Good to know: Much of the island is quiet from November to April, when many clubs and hotels close.

- Cala Comte
