Ibiza in winter tips
The real Ibiza-lovers come to Ibiza off-season. Due to the wonderful Mediterranean climate, winters in Ibiza are mild. Cold days are almost non-existent. And even if the big clubs are closed, there is still plenty to do on the beautiful island. In addition to trendy smaller clubs, such as B12 and STK, restaurants and beach clubs remain open with a modified (cheaper) winter menu. And winter is also perfect for detoxes, massages, yoga retreats or just outdoor activities, such as beautiful hikes through the mountains.
Ibiza temperature in winter
Ibiza has 300 days of sunshine a year, and of course there are occasional showers in October, but being an island, where there is always more wind than on the mainland, such a day of rain can suddenly turn super sunny. If you go out with your camera after such a rainstorm, you will see that everything is much fresher and greener.
Whereas the average temperature in Ibiza in July and August is between 20 and 30 degrees, on a sunny day in May, June, September and October it can sometimes reach 27 degrees! A cold day in those months is a day with a temperature of 12 or 13 degrees. You can take a lovely walk on the beach in your shorts and T-shirt, or even sunbathe in a sheltered spot. In the evening it is colder, of course, but people still eat outside on terraces, wearing long pants and sweaters.
And is everything now silent and desolate? No! The restaurants and bars that do stay open host extra fun events.
