Ibiza is much more than beaches with crystal-clear waters and sunsets over the Mediterranean. The island is also home to centuries of history, protected natural areas and charming villages where life moves at a different pace. If you want to discover another side of Ibiza during your holiday, these three places deserve a spot on your itinerary.

Dalt Vila, history within the walls

Rising above Ibiza’s harbour, Dalt Vila is the historic heart of the capital and one of the island’s most iconic landmarks. Its fortified old town forms part of Ibiza’s UNESCO World Heritage designation.

Wandering through its streets reveals squares, viewpoints, historic buildings and hidden corners overlooking the Mediterranean. If you’re staying at BLUESEA Salina, a visit to Ibiza Town is the perfect way to combine heritage, gastronomy and a lively urban atmosphere during your holiday.

Ses Salines, nature by the Mediterranean

In southern Ibiza lies Ses Salines Natural Park, a protected area characterised by salt flats, lagoons, dunes and Mediterranean coastline. It is also an area of great ecological importance, closely linked to the underwater meadows of Posidonia oceanica.

From BLUESEA Paraíso Beach, you can spend a day exploring this part of the island and discover a side of Ibiza where beaches and nature go hand in hand.

Santa Gertrudis, the charm of inland Ibiza

In the heart of the island, Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera reveals a different side of Ibiza. Its atmosphere combines the relaxed pace of the countryside with a cosmopolitan character, with small shops, local crafts and art galleries.

If you’re staying at BLUESEA Coral Beach, a trip to Santa Gertrudis is a great way to leave the coast behind for a few hours and explore inland Ibiza.

Dalt Vila, Ses Salines and Santa Gertrudis offer three different ways to experience the island: history, nature and Mediterranean life. Because there is always something to discover in Ibiza beyond its famous coves.
