Ibiza is more than its famous nightlife; it’s a vibrant island where culture, Ibiza culinary delights, and unforgettable experiences come together in spectacular fashion. If you have an itinerary like the Virgin Voyages Southern Spain to Casablanca cruise itinerary, your ship will stop in Ibiza. Get ready to savor every moment from sunset dinners to daytime adventures and serene escapes.
Arrival and Nightlife: Dive into Ibiza after Dark
Arriving at 6pm on Friday, you have the perfect opportunity for an elegant start to your Ibiza visit. A memorable dinner at Sa Punta offers fresh, expertly prepared seafood with sweeping harbor views just minutes from the ship. There are of course other options to cater to every mood:
- Take in an Ibiza sunset while having drinks: Check out Mint by Mambo. Located right next to the famous Café Mambo in San Antonio, Ibiza, it offers a perfect blend of food, music, and atmosphere. Dining in the presence of a gorgeous sunset over the Mediterranean is the perfect way to start your visit to the island. A cab ride will take you approximately 25 minutes to get to the opposite side of the island. Depending on your group size a pre-arranged private transfer may be a better solution, talk to your travel consultant for details. Reservations are recommended.
- If you crave a high-energy club experience: Hï Ibiza is world-renowned for its top DJs and immersive dance floors. Entry ranges from €40 to €60 depending on the event; tickets can be purchased at hibiza.com. The venue is a short taxi ride (around 15 minutes) from the port.
