Spain
A 3-day trip to Ibiza
Ibiza is the world's clubbing capital with a quiet side — old town, hidden coves, and the best sunsets in the Med.
Ibiza is two islands in one — the world's most famous club scene and a quiet, beautiful Balearic island of pine forests, hidden coves, and a fortified old town.
The clubbing is in the south and east (Playa d'en Bossa, San Antonio); the quiet is in the north and the rural interior. You can do both in a trip, but choose your base accordingly.
July and August are peak — expensive and heaving. June and September are the sweet spots: warm water, good nights, and the crowds manageable. The sunsets at Café del Mar and Benirràs are the island ritual.

What your 3-day plan includes
- A day-by-day itinerary with neighborhoods clustered so you spend less time in transit.
- Real budget awareness — a target, an estimate, and a status you can dial up or down.
- Recommendations shaped by your pace, food priorities, group, and must-dos.
- Swap anything, improve any day, refine in any direction without starting over.

How to plan 3 days in Ibiza
- Choose your base by vibe: south for clubs, north for quiet, Ibiza Town for both.
- Book club tickets ahead — superclubs sell out and cost more at the door.
- Rent a car to reach the hidden calas (coves) the buses don't.
- Watch the sunset at Benirràs on a Sunday for the drum circle.
- Go in June or September — warm water, good nights, half the crowds.
