Water activities

On Ibiza the sea is your playground. All of the main resort beaches have a watersports centre for jet-skis, parasailing and water-skiing and other motorised fun. Stand-up paddling and kayaking are also on the menu here.

At the port in Ibiza Town you could also charter a yacht: You can sail alone if you’ve got the experience or hire a boat with its own captain to take you anywhere you want to go around Ibiza’s craggy coast.

You could also take your adventure beneath the waves. There are 17 diving schools on the island, and it’s a wonderful activity here as the water clarity is so high and there are all kinds of caves and underwater drop-offs to see.

Morella

Morella is an ancient walled city found in the province of Castellon. Architecture and history are the main attractions in Morella, and you won’t want to leave without seeing the Morella Castle, the Gothic Santa Maria la Mayor Basilic Church with its incredibly ornate interiors or the ancient Morella Walls. As a delicious treat, head to a bakery for the local culinary specialty known as flaons, or sweet pastries filled with cheese. Morella can also serve as a home base for exploring the surrounding Maestrazgo Mountains.

World’s Best Gelato in San Gimignano

Hidden away in the quaint medieval town of San Gimignano, Gelateria Dondoli is worth the trip alone. Run by former gelato world champion Sergio Dondoli, this is arguably the best place in the world to indulge in homemade Italian ice-cream. The shop is located in the town’s main square, Piazza della Cisterna, and specializes in creamy frozen treats prepared with the freshest local ingredients – think organic raw milk and fruits, Sicilian pistachios, and San Gimignano DOP saffron. Some of the most beloved specialties include Rosemary Baby (with raspberries and rosemary), Crema di Santa Fina (orange cream with Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar, San Gimignano saffron, and pine nuts from Pisa), and Vernaccia Sorbet made with the best vintage Vernaccia wines of the area.

Formentera

Image
Everyone visiting Ibiza should consider catching a ferry to Formentera, off the island’s south coast. Formentera has an ambience and appearance a world away from most Mediterranean destinations. Firstly the beaches (Playa de Ses Illetes, Calo des Mort) look almost tropical, like the kind you’d find in the Caribbean, with turquoise waters and sugar-white sand. To get about Formentera’s unspoiled interior you can hire a bike for the day and then be free to set off along dusty tracks that snake through little whitewashed hamlets. As you go you’ll never be more than a few hundred metres from the coast and another immaculate sandy beach.
