Ibiza Airport

About Ibiza

Ibiza is called the White Island for its typical architecture. It became a major center of touristical attraction during the 1960s, being then famous for its "Hippie-Culture" and nudist beaches. Ibiza now has an ample offer as well for families and older visitors, anyhow, still there are the young ones who are attracted by the island's nightlife, which already starts in the afternoon, at the beaches and in the center of town, to continue until dawn in the numerous discos.

If you explore the island's interior, you will find a pure and simple Mediterranean culture, and remains of populations which inhabited Ibiza thousands of years ago, as for instance the famous wall-paintings of Ses Fontelles.
