Things To See/Do in Ibiza:
Ibiza may be amongst the smallest of the Balearic Islands but it's by no means the quietest. In fact, the island is synonymous with parties and excess. Renting a car in Ibiza allows you to see a whole new side to the island though. The island contains myriad white-washed houses, beautiful sandy beaches hidden coves and bays and rolling hilly landscapes dotted with ancient fig and olive trees.
The island's main town is the port of Ciudad de Ibiza, known as Eivissa to the locals and Ibiza Town to Brits and English speaking tourists. The town is located in the south of the island and boasts a lively marina and charming little old quarter, where you'll find some great seafood restaurants. Seasoned travellers may be more familiar with San Antonio, the main resort town of the island. If you're looking for an authentic travel experience though, it's worth giving this town a wide berth and heading instead to the stunning coves located close to the shimmering beaches. With Ibiza car hire, you'll discover a whole lot more. A 14km drive to the north of the island capital will take you to the charming little town of Santa Eulalia where attractions include Puig de Missa, a hilltop church and Sant Carles, the last true hippy commune on Ibiza island. The salt flats of La Salinas make for another worthwhile excursion. The saltflats have been in use since the Carthagians traded in salt. If you plan to take a day-trip here-be sure to bring a camera along. The glittering saltlakes
