We all know Ibiza for the 24-hour parties and some of the world’s top techno-spinning DJs, but with endless white sand beaches, unparalleled sunsets, a foodie paradise and UNESCO World Heritage streets to explore there’s so much more to Ibiza than meets the eye. So if you’re thinking of heading to the White Isle this summer and want to avoid the nightlife, why not try to hunker down in your hotel spa for a deep tissue massage, indulge in plates full of pintxos created by top chefs or go kayaking?
Discover a different side of the island from what you may have previously experienced with our insider’s guide to Ibiza.

BEACHES
