Why Ibiza?
Ibiza is not just about parties. The island offers beautiful coves, whitewashed villages, dramatic cliffs and excellent conditions for relaxed sightseeing, especially outside the peak summer season.
Best time to visit: May–June, September–October
July and August mean the highest prices and the biggest crowds.

Transport
The best option is renting a car – many beaches and viewpoints are poorly connected by public transport.
Alternatives:

- scooters – popular, but less comfortable for longer distances.
Prices & Accommodation

- cheapest stays: April, May, October,
- consider the north of the island – quieter and cheaper than the clubbing areas.
How Much Time to Plan?
3 days – old town, 2–3 beaches, sunset

In Summary
Ibiza reveals its calmer, more authentic side outside the peak season. It’s not only a party destination, but also a perfect place for short trips focused on nature, landscapes and the island’s unique atmosphere.
