Palma de Mallorca
Palma city center is located 2.8 miles (a 15-minute drive) from the port of Palma. You can also walk to the center which takes approximately 45 min. We chose to get a taxi from the port to the Palma Nova Beach Area. This was approximately 20 miniutes and 25 euros one way.
Just a 20 minute cab ride from the port, palma nova beach area is full of hotels, restaurants, shopping and amazing beach for you to enjoy. We rented to beach chairs which came with an umbrella and safe.

Ibiza
In Ibiza I rediscovered by inner 24 year old and went to two of the best clubs in the world. It was a once in a lifetime experience and i highly recommend it .
Book your tickets to see Calvin Harris in Advance. This is a daytime to night time party, so it will end early.
Ushuaia
Voted number 1 nightclub in the world . Book your tickets to see DAVID GUETTA in advance. If you have the money I highly recommend VIP access. The general admission level is overly packed and not enjoyable
