The best place for a sunset in Ibiza: San Antonio de Portmany

This town is world famous for its sunsets and nightlife.

The busy, bustling waterfront promenade at the west side of San Antonio, known as the sunset Sunset Strip, is the place to go to see the beautiful setting sun.

World-famous sunset cafes and bars like Café Mambo and Café del Mar along with great music characterize this vibrant area.

Grab yourself a beer or a cocktail from one of the bars, sit back and watch the amazing spectacle about to unfold. All the while, you’ll be thinking that life doesn’t get much better than this.

At this point, you’ll understand why this place is so beloved. Ibiza dreams are made of this.

Visit Las Dalias

Ibiza has a few markets. The most famous one is the hippie market Las Dalias.

There is, however, even much more to do and see at Las Dalias besides all the market stalls. It seems as if time has been standing still there and we like sitting at one of the wooden tables chatting with friends and looking at all the different people passing by. In the garden there is a restaurant which offers Mediterranean and exotic cuisine.

The Soul Bar provides nice tunes and having a rest in the Bedouin tent is another option. On Saturdays there is a children’s area with fun and games, creative workshops and storytellers.
