Visiting Ibiza during Winter is maybe one of the best things you can do. Really! During this time of the year, there are so many beautiful things you can see and the fact that it’s less crowded means that you can enjoy the island even better. Lianne, responsible for the Spanish market and content/translations at SeaBookings, went to Ibiza just before the high season and shares her experience.
I am happy we did! In summer it turns into a party island, which is also nice, but in fall, winter and even in spring Ibiza is completely different and according to the locals, it’s actually the best time to visit Ibiza. Here are 5 reasons to visit Ibiza during Winter, based on my personal experience.
5 Reasons to visit Ibiza during Winter
More pleasant temperatures in Ibiza
Winter is the time of the year that you will get a different perspective on the island’s beauty. Lower temperatures on Ibiza during Winter mean that you can explore the island more easily and with fewer tourists around you will see things you otherwise wouldn’t even notice.
Did you know for example that winter sunsets are very different from the ones in summer? They are something magical with lots of colors mixed together.
Ibiza’s Almond Blossom
I think that everyone agrees that almond trees in bloom are very beautiful. Between January and March, you can actually see the white and light pink colored trees already on the island.
You can do a full moon walk in Santa Inés and admire the silvery blanket of almond trees under the light of the moon. I am sure that is something you’ve never done before, right?
Visit Empty Secluded Areas in Ibiza
Driving is the easiest way to get around Ibiza. Renting a car is, of course, cheaper during low season and definitely a great way to discover the hidden winter treasures.
Gostei muito de levar a minha mãe a sítios novos e descobrir algumas praias escondidas. A maior parte das praias são isoladas, mas os bares e restaurantes à volta ainda estão abertos.
Check out the lovely road to the Cala d’Hort beach on the picture above. Cala d’Hort is a small, beloved beach with a fantastic view of the mysterious island of Es Vedra.
Fotografia in Ibiza
If you like to take photos, then this is your chance! During fall, winter and especially spring Ibiza shows the best it has to offer: vivid colors, picture-perfect clouds and that light which seems to characterize the whole island.
Off-season Outdoor Activities in Ibiza
Because the temperatures on the island are always nice you can do a lot of outdoor activities in Ibiza during Winter. If you would like to discover the island from another perspective, then I really can recommend doing a coastal hike & snorkeling tour.
During winter months, Ibiza town is less crowded, but normally there are always some private boat tours that are open all year. We went on a private boat tour during winter season, it was great fun.
Prefere relaxar? Não há problema, há muitos restaurantes e bares onde pode apreciar a vista sobre o oceano.
