Ibiza, also known as the white island for its idyllic white sand beaches and distinctive whitewashed houses, is a hugely popular vacation destination. But this Mediterranean island is also home to a fairly large local community. The permanent population consists of a total population of 147,914 (2021 figure), scattered in different places such as the old town of Dalt Vila with its historical monuments, Santa Eulària des Riu and San Antonio. That means the island offers a unique blend of traditional Spanish culture and international influences. This diversity is due in part to the number of foreigners who have settled on the island over a number of years. They were attracted to the relaxed lifestyle, beautiful nature, stunning beaches and rich island history.
Ibiza’s cultural melting pot
Ibiza may be known worldwide as a Spanish island with spectacular parties, but the island has much more to offer! Once Ibiza was an important trading post, in the time of the Phoenicians. Then the island came into the hands of the Roman and later the Moorish rulers. These historical layers can still be seen in the island’s architecture and cultural traditions.

Historical and demographic development
Through the original Phoenician rulers and Assyrian invasions to the present day, Ibiza has developed into a cosmopolitan center. This has created a cultural landscape that is both Spanish and international. The permanent residents consist of the descendants of the ancient Ibicenco families
and
many expatriates, many of them from Europe. The resulting unique blend of cultures can be seen in the local way of life, cuisine and annual festivities. A fun way to learn more about Ibiza’s history is to visit the Archaeological Museum. A day trip to Dalt Vila, the old high town on the Spanish island, is also well worthwhile. At the highest point of this city, you can also enjoy beautiful views of the sea.
Protection of cultural heritage
Although the increase in tourism and the influx of residents from abroad have changed Ibiza’s demographic and cultural landscape, the local community is committed to preserving its cultural heritage well. Thus, historic sites are well protected and the local government tries to implement sustainable tourism as much as possible.
