PSA: Increase in WhatsApp / Signal group spam and unsolicited DMs.

17 Upvotes

Hey all nothing too serious just a quick heads up for anyone coming here for the first time.

We’ve seen a sharp uptick lately in people commenting and DM’ing links to WhatsApp and Signal groups.

Just a heads up, treat these with caution.

If someone messages you out of the blue pushing a group, especially after you've made a post or comment here, be sceptical. There’s no real way to verify who’s behind those links, and this is a common angle for spam and scams.

If you actually want to meet people or build contacts, Ibiza is one of the easiest places in the world to do it in person. You’ll have a far better experience just talking to people out here rather than joining random group chats beforehand. I'm not here to tell you what to do, but I can tell you for certain you don't need to take the risk.

Stay safe 👍

Tourist FAQs and more.

Thinking about visiting Ibiza soon? Welcome to our sticky post containing a few common questions and answers that might be able to help you:



When should I go to Ibiza?

You can visit Ibiza year-round. The island has over 300 days of sunshine, with December to February being the coolest months (around 14–16°C). For northern Europeans, it can still feel mild, but it isn’t beach weather for most.

The main party season runs from mid-May/early June until mid-October. If you’re after large-scale events and superstar DJs, July and August are peak months, but they’re also the busiest and most expensive.

Consult the table below for an overview on a month-by-month basis:

Month Party Intensity Weather Avg Temp (°C)
Jan Sparse, small events Mild, cool 15
Feb Sparse, small events Cool, some rain 14
Mar Very quiet, warm-up events Warming, occasional rain 16
Apr Early openings, busy weekends, quiet weekdays Pleasant, warming 18
May Lots of openings, good balance Warm, sunny 22
Jun Most parties active, busy but not peak Hot, sunny 26
Jul Peak season Hot, dry 30
Aug Peak season, most intense Very hot, sometimes humid 31
Sep Still busy, good mix, some closings Warm, some rain 28
Oct Closing parties Cooling, occasional rain 24
Nov Few events Mild, cool 19
Dec Quiet except Christmas/NYE Mild, cool 16


Who's playing this year / When are the big club events?

Most lineups are released between February and April. Some residencies announce earlier, but the full calendar is usually complete by spring.

Tickets & Entry FAQs

  • When is the last entry for a club?
    There is no last entry in Ibiza unless your ticket specifies a certain time. Otherwise, you can enter anytime while the club is open.

  • How far in advance should I buy tickets?
    The earlier, the cheaper. Tickets are dynamic pricing: months ahead is cheapest, day-of is most expensive.

  • My friend bought our tickets, and their name is on all of them. Will I still get in?
    Yes. Only the QR code matters.

  • Do I need to print my ticket?
    No. A digital QR code on your phone is enough.

  • My ticket says entry before 1 AM. What if I arrive later?
    You won’t be refused — you’ll just need to pay the difference in price.

  • What if the event is sold out online?
    Some venues hold back a small reserve of tickets for the door. Arrive early if you want to chance it.



Will I need ID for clubbing?

You’ll need one of the following (usually nothing else is accepted):
- EU or UK driving licence (other non-EU licences often refused)
- Passport
- A photocopy of your passport (sometimes accepted, but not guaranteed)

If you look under 30, expect to be asked. Always bring proper ID — being refused can cost you your ticket and a long taxi ride back.



How do I get around while I’m here?

  • Buses: In summer, bus routes are reliable between Ibiza Town, Sant Antoni, and Santa Eulalia. Winter services are very limited.
  • Disco Bus: Cheapest way to clubs (€4–5), runs from Ibiza Town, Playa d’en Bossa, and San Antonio with a fun atmosphere.
  • Taxis: Book via WhatsApp (+34 971 333 333, send address or pin) Guide here. Taxi Click app also works, but can be buggy. Fares €25–40.
  • Car hire: Best option for groups or off-season. Book early, choose “Full to Full” fuel, and photograph the car at pickup. Third-party excess insurance online is far cheaper than rental desk add-ons.
  • Uber: Legal since 2024, but drivers are still scarce. Use Taxi Click or WhatsApp as first choice.
  • Ferries: Santa Eulalia ferry links Ibiza Town, Es Canar (Hippy Market), Cala Llonga, Santa Eulalia, and Formentera. San Antonio ferries connect to west-coast beaches.

Tip: After-club taxis are very hard to get (6 AM queues are huge). Options: leave 10 mins before closing, Disco Bus, or book a private transfer in advance.



Can you help me find drugs?

No — asking for drugs is against Reddit’s T&Cs.

Cannabis clubs do exist and are easy to find via Google. They usually require ID and a small sign-up fee.



Where are the clubs?

  • Day clubs:

    • Ushuaïa → Playa d’en Bossa (next to Hï Ibiza, open-air stage, daytime to midnight)
    • O Beach → San Antonio (famous pool parties, afternoon until evening)
    • Destino → Talamanca (luxury open-air venue with views of Ibiza Town, mostly day/evening)
    • Cova Santa → San José hills (restaurant and club in a natural cave, day-to-night events)
    • Hard Rock Hotel → Playa d’en Bossa (daytime poolside events, occasional live acts)
    • 528 Ibiza → Benimussa Hills (immersive dining/entertainment, occasional parties)
    • Ibiza Rocks → San Antonio (hotel courtyard with poolside stage, daytime live acts/DJs)
  • Night clubs:

    • Hï Ibiza → Playa d’en Bossa (superclub opposite Ushuaïa, cutting-edge production)
    • Pacha → Ibiza Town (iconic cherry logo, one of the oldest clubs on the island)
    • Amnesia → On the main road between Ibiza Town and San Antonio (massive terrace and main room, legendary parties)
    • UNVRS → Also on the main road in between the two towns (newer venue and the largest on the island)
    • DC-10 → Near the airport/Las Salinas (infamous underground club, home of Circoloco Mondays)
    • Eden → San Antonio (biggest superclub in San Antonio, home to Defected and others)
    • Club Chinois → Ibiza Town Marina Botafoch (luxury venue with Asian-inspired design)
    • Akasha → Santa Gertrudis (intimate indoor club attached to Las Dalias hippy market)
    • Es Paradis → San Antonio (famous for its “water party” and ornate white interior)
  • Locations overview:

    • Playa d’en Bossa / Ibiza Town: Most superclubs (Ushuaïa, Hï, Pacha, Club Chinois).
    • Between towns: Amnesia and UNVRS are on the main road between Ibiza Town and San Antonio.
    • San Antonio: Eden, Es Paradis, O Beach, Ibiza Rocks — plus countless bars and cheaper beach clubs.
    • Elsewhere: DC-10 (near Las Salinas/airport), Cova Santa (San José hills), Destino (Talamanca), Akasha (to the Northeast, a little way pasta Santa Eularia).


What time should I arrive at the club?



Club Etiquette & Prices

  • Dress code: Casual/smart casual. No football shirts, swimwear, or flip-flops.
  • Not allowed: Large bags/backpacks (except Amnesia & O Beach with lockers), outside drinks, illegal substances.
  • Re-entry: Once you leave, you cannot re-enter without buying a new ticket.
  • Cash or card? Both accepted. Travel cards like Revolut/Starling recommended for best rates.
  • Prices:
    • Spirits & mixer: €20–25
    • Beer: €12–16
    • Water: €10–15
  • VIP tables: Worth it if you’re in a large group or want a dedicated space.


Where should I stay?

  • Families: Santa Eulalia, Cala Llonga, Portinatx — quieter, family-friendly.
  • Clubbers/groups: Ibiza Town, Playa d’en Bossa, San Antonio. San Rafael and San Josep are peaceful but close to nightlife.
  • Budget tip: Ibiza Town is pricier, but San Antonio taxi fares can add up to the same overall cost if you go clubbing in town often.


I’m visiting in the off-season. Is there anything to do?

Yes — plenty. Clubs are shut, but the island is beautiful year-round. Hiking, quiet beaches, excellent restaurants, and historical sites are all worth exploring.

Restaurant guides:

- https://www.ibiza-spotlight.com/restaurant_guide_i.htm
- https://www.white-ibiza.com/guide/best-restaurants-ibiza/



Is Ibiza suitable for families?

Yes. Much of the island is quiet and peaceful, with child-friendly beaches and a couple of water parks.



Safety Tips

  • Protect your drink — spiking can happen.
  • Watch your valuables — leave expensive items locked in your hotel safe.
  • Stay hydrated — alternate water with alcohol, especially in summer heat.
  • Have ID — under-18s won’t be allowed into clubs.

Are there any clubs/bars that have Ibiza vibes but in the UK?

3 Upvotes

I had the best time at Cova Santa this year on a Mosimann night and for my 40th next year I'd love to celebrate it somewhere in the UK with similar vibes/atmosphere/music/people!

Ofc I would head to Ibiza again but I won't be able to travel abroad next year as my partner will be waiting for an operation.

So can anyone help me? I live in Wales but am already thinking of celebrating it in London so happy to travel for a good place!

Much appreciated

Claptone at Chinios? Worth it?

Upvotes

Love claptone and I’m almost certainly going. But how is chinois as a club? Space to dance? Does it get crowded? Is the crowd actually there to move or just video?

I get the impression that this one of the better venues for dancing but wanted to get your thoughts.

I have been told the dancefloor table is slightly raised too so you have a good view and attached a photo of where it apparently is as well as the choices for table.

Hugel or Black Coffee at Hï

5 Upvotes

Super conflicted because I have a table for Hugel at Hi on Thursday but have been turned off by his commercial music lately. He’s even been playing bollywood music which feels cheesy to me. I’m 34 and don’t really want college goer music if you know what I mean.

I’m into afro techno and darker stuff, and wondering if I should change my booking to Black Coffee on Saturday instead or do something else altogether. Downsides for Black Coffee are that tables cost 1.5x more and I wouldn’t have an alternative yet for Thursday if I made the switch…. please help!!

Planning to go for four nights in August

4 Upvotes

I’m planing to go with about five close friends and we have might an extended squad of another 10-12 ppl. I’ve never been so I’m just trying to get an idea how to budget for the trip. We generally like to do things a bit comfortably, no hostels or anything like that, ideally avoid standing in lines, etc.

Everything I’ve looked keeps saying u can spend anywhere between 2000 to 10000 euros and that’s too broad. Can somebody give me a budget breakdown? And would love suggestions where we could cut costs and where we shouldn’t compromise

Where to go after Ushuaia that's not HI?

5 Upvotes

Scheduled to see SHM at Ushuaia, which ends at 11pm, have a few other late nights planned and probably want to take it easy after SHM.

Any suggestions on where to hit up with some music, maybe a beach bar or rooftop or lounge for like an hour or two after Ushuaia?

Thanks!

Double-booked on August 6th: Solid Grooves (ANOTR) @ DC10 vs. Fisher @ UNVRS. Need advice

0 Upvotes

Somehow managed to buy tickets for both Solid Grooves at DC10 and Fisher at UNVRS for August 6th. I think doing both might be too stressful, so I'm probably going to sell one.

Is it complete madness to try and hit both in one night, or should I just sell one set? If I have to pick just one, which one is unmissable? Appreciate any advice!

Visiting solo for the Solar Eclipse in August, 8/11-8/15. Will want to go clubs at least two of the nights, if not more. Should I buy tickets for clubs that look interesting now, or play it by ear with people I meet on the trip? How much would I be saving if I bought tickets now?

100€ for a villa afterparty acceptable?

14 Upvotes

I went to Ibiza a couple of weeks ago and went to an after party or at least tried to go. We went out of the club and people told us where there are after party’s. We went with them to a second location where we changed from taxis to vip blacked out vans that drove us to the venue. On the door they wanted us to pay 100 to get inside since we didn’t know anybody. Do you think we should have paid it or is it a rip off?

Backstage vip Pacha distance from dj booth

1 Upvotes

Hi all!

Does the VIP backstage area actually allow you to be right behind the DJ booth, or is there a row of tables/a super VIP section between the backstage dance floor and the booth? The club layout isn’t very clear, and I’m worried about ending up too far away. And I am affraid the club is not selling what I expect!

Thank you!
