Looking for the Ibiza beyond the postcards? This list is filled with my favorite local cafés, hidden beaches, charming villages, markets, sunset spots and restaurants that make me fall in love with the island over and over again.
Map
My favorite market for treasure hunting. You'll find vintage clothes, records, ceramics and random second-hand gems. We've found amazing furniture for our house here.
Mercat ambulant de Sant Jordi
Always full of local people, especially on Sunday. Food is of great quality.
S’Espartar
When in Santa Gertrudis visit this bakery you will not regret.
Chez bibi von bakery
When lucky you can find people on the drums here which creates that authentic Ibiza vibe.
Cala Benirrás
A local classic right in the heart of Sant Josep. I love the fresh juices they have.
Racó Verd
If you're serious about coffee, don't miss this place. One of the best specialty coffee spots on the island and perfect for a slow morning.
The Monk Coffee Roasters
An Ibiza institution. Locals have been meeting here for decades. Order a hierbas or a simple sandwich and soak up the authentic village atmosphere.
Bar Anita
One of the most beautiful viewpoints on the island.
Es Cubells
If you want to shop like a local, this is where to go. Fresh fish, seasonal fruit and vegetables, local cheeses and a glimpse into everyday island life.
Mercat Nou - Traditional local food market
One of my favorite places for breakfast or lunch. Fresh local produce, a little farm shop and a peaceful countryside setting.
Can Muson
The hike isn't the easiest, but the reward is one of the most magical little coves on the island. Pack plenty of water and make a morning of it. Es Portitxol
Es Portitxol
The definition of a local institution. Come for a bocadillo and stay for the atmosphere. The walls are covered with original artwork, and it feels like stepping into old Ibiza.
Bar Costa
Even if you're not staying here, it's worth visiting for lunch or wandering through the gardens. It feels like a peaceful little oasis.
Agroturismo Atzaró - Atzaró Agroturismo Hotel
Sunset without the huge beach club crowds. Order a drink, listen to the music and watch the sky change colors.
Hostal La Torre
One of those beaches that still feels untouched. Crystal-clear water, dramatic cliffs and a little adventure getting there. Caló d'En Serra
