Why Ibiza Town matters
Ibiza is famous for its nightclubs, but the town itself has a quieter, older side. The walled upper town, Dalt Vila, climbs a hill above the harbour with narrow lanes, a cathedral and sweeping sea views. Beyond the town lie coves with turquoise water, pine forests and small villages. Visit outside peak season and you will find the island at its most beautiful.
Talking points
- Dalt Vila, the fortified upper town, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
- The island has quiet coves and villages far from the clubs.
- Ibiza was settled by the Phoenicians in antiquity.
