Ibiza Offers More Than Party Scene
Ibiza is one of the four largest Balearic Islands. It is the smallest of the four, but it is not short on popularity or beauty. The island is positioned in the Mediterranean Sea approximately 80 kilometers off the coast of Spain. Traditionally the island has been associated with its club party scene, due to its numerous clubs and general party atmosphere areas. While the clubs are a main attraction for numerous tourists, the government of the island is focusing on the numerous other aspects that will bring in more families and draw a greater international interest.
Because a large portion of the island is classified as UN World Heritage sites, they are protected from commercial development and market exploitation. Some of the more notable examples of this include the area known as God’s Finger in the Benirras Bay and some of the more traditional and historic cultural areas. The beauty of the Ibicenco sites draws countless artists and photographers hoping to capture and express some of the island’s beauty. It is also a popular location for filming. Sant Antoni is greatly known for its party scene, but it also has cultural landmarks to explore. There is a monument for Christopher Columbus in the city, known as The Egg.
Another feature the government would like to implement in order to draw a more diverse tourist population is requiring all new hotels to be of a 5 star status. The luxury accommodations provided by 5 star hotel Ibiza contributes to the potential relaxation and rejuvenation qualities of the island. Some of the natural tourists attractions include the beach at Es Canar. This popular beach offers some of the greatest views of the Mediterranean Sea and provides plenty of opportunities for swimming, boating and hiking. Another excellent hiking spot is the Cala de sa Galera. Planning a scenic picnic near the Puig Nuno will ensure a beautiful and relaxing afternoon.
