Time difference Ibiza

There is no time difference between France and the Balearics: Spain and France share the same meridian

Opening hours Ibiza

To see / To do Ibiza

Museums and cultural institutes are generally open from 10am in Ibiza and close between 7pm and 9/22pm depending on the season and the establishment. Some take a break from 2pm to 4pm and 5pm.

Enjoying yourself Ibiza

In Ibiza, as in the rest of Spain, meal times are spread out throughout the day. In the evening, the restaurants fill up around 10pm, often customers will have met beforehand, over a drink and some tapas, and start their meal in the restaurant later. Dining out is common; in Ibiza, people like to eat out. You will find many small, inexpensive establishments frequented by locals. When they choose to have dinner at home, the islanders sit down at the table around 9pm and like to have a drink to finish the evening with friends. Generally speaking, Spanish hours are the rhythm of the meals in Ibiza, with service generally provided from 1 to 4 pm and from 8 pm to midnight. However, some seasonal establishments adapt to people from more northern regions who are used to eating earlier. However, restaurants open from midday are not commonplace!

Take a break Ibiza

Bakeries, cafeterias and ice cream shops are generally open all day, until about 8pm, or even a little later for the ice cream shops (a good ice cream is always a good idea for dessert in this heat!). However, there is no set rule here and to avoid going out in vain, it is better to make a quick phone call. Bars generally open their doors around 7-8pm and close around 2am, or even 4am for some. As for happy hours, there is no fixed rule either: some offer them in the afternoon, others much later

(To) please yourself Ibiza

In Eivissa, along the marina, every evening, small stalls set up and offer jewellery, paintings and various souvenirs. In Es Canar, the Hippie Market is held every Wednesday, while in Sant Carles, the Las Dalias market, which is certainly the most exotic, opens its doors on Saturdays. There is also a Saturday morning flea market in Sant Jordi and a Sunday morning market in Sant Joan where you can find temporary stalls selling handicrafts, food products, local and organic cosmetics.

Get out Ibiza

Whether you want to have a drink on the terrace or take to the dancefloors all night long, Ibiza has no shortage of options: it is one of the world's party temples! At any time of the day or night, during the summer season, the white island has a plethora of open bars and discos, not to mention beach parties and other monumental events. Ibiza's clubs start to fill up around 1am.
