This 7-day Ibiza itinerary includes:
Ibiza Town, Dalt Vila and Talamanca
A full-day trip to Formentera
San Antonio, the west coast and sunset
Playa d’en Bossa and the main club night
A slower northern Ibiza day
Santa Eulària and the east coast
Ses Salines and a flexible final evening
Seven days in Ibiza gives you enough time to experience the island without turning the holiday into a race between beaches, clubs and ferry terminals.
This itinerary combines historic streets, beach days, villages, a Formentera visit and nightlife. It includes one main club night, a boat experience and enough recovery time to enjoy them properly.
Clubtickets can help you organise the experiences with fixed dates or departure times, while beaches, restaurants and village visits remain flexible around them.
The itinerary assumes you have seven usable days. If your arrival or departure takes up most of a day, shorten the first or final plan rather than removing the recovery day in the middle.
Your 7-Day Ibiza Itinerary
Day 1 – Ibiza Town, Dalt Vila and Talamanca
Use the first day to settle in and understand the layout of Ibiza Town. Avoid booking a major event unless your flight arrives early and everyone is comfortable with the possibility of delays.
Morning or Arrival
Travel to your accommodation, check in and have something to eat nearby. If the room is not ready, leave your luggage at reception rather than carrying it around the old town.
Use this time to confirm the week’s bookings, save ticket confirmations offline and check the meeting points for ferries, boats and events. A venue or departure described as being in Ibiza Town may not be beside your hotel.
Explore Dalt Vila
Enter Dalt Vila through Portal de ses Taules and walk through the fortified streets towards the cathedral and upper walls. Stop at the bastions and viewpoints rather than heading directly to the highest point.
Allow two or three hours for the walk, particularly if you want to visit a museum, browse the shops or stop for a drink. The official tourism board’s Dalt Vila walking route provides more information about the gates, walls and historic buildings.
Comfortable shoes are important because many streets are steep and uneven. Earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon is generally more pleasant than the hottest part of the day.
For more ideas around the port and nearby beaches, see these things to do in Ibiza Town.
An Optional Swim at Talamanca
If you arrive early enough, add a short visit to Talamanca before exploring Dalt Vila later in the afternoon. The beach is convenient for visitors staying near Marina Botafoch and provides an easy introduction to the coast.
Keep this optional. If your flight arrives late or the group is tired, save the beach for another day rather than rushing through both Talamanca and the old town.
Evening in La Marina
Walk down into La Marina for dinner. The neighbourhood has restaurants, boutiques, bars and a lively harbour atmosphere without requiring a full club night.
If the group still has energy, continue with drinks near the port. Otherwise, return to the hotel and keep the first evening short. Day two requires an earlier start.
Day 2 – A Full-Day Trip to Formentera
Formentera should have its own day. Trying to combine it with a late club night usually results in either leaving the island too early or arriving at the evening event tired.
Book your Ibiza to Formentera ferry tickets through Clubtickets once you know which day has the best position in the itinerary.
Morning Ferry to La Savina
Have breakfast before travelling to the port and arrive with enough time to find the correct boarding point. Check your Clubtickets confirmation for the departure location, check-in instructions and return conditions.
Regular ferries arrive at La Savina, the main port of Formentera. After disembarking, continue by bus, taxi, bicycle or scooter.
Do not choose transport only by price. Consider the heat, the amount you are carrying and how much of the island you realistically want to visit.
Start at Ses Illetes
Ses Illetes is a natural first stop because it is relatively close to La Savina. Its shallow water and pale sand make it one of the island’s most recognisable beaches.
It forms part of the Ses Salines Natural Park, so visitors should use marked access points and respect protected dune areas. The official tourism website provides further information about Ses Illetes and access to the surrounding natural park.
Arrive earlier in the day if you want more choice of space. Bring water and sun protection, but avoid carrying unnecessary bags if you will be moving around the island.
Choose One Afternoon Route
After Ses Illetes, select one additional area rather than trying to cover all of Formentera.
For a simple day, have lunch near the beach and return to La Savina during the afternoon. This option suits groups that want more swimming and less transport.
For a livelier stop, continue to Es Pujols for lunch, shops and a walk along the waterfront.
For a quieter landscape, travel towards Playa de Migjorn. This takes more planning but provides a different atmosphere from the northern beaches.
Cala Saona and Cap de Barbaria are also possible, but attempting to include them alongside Ses Illetes, Es Pujols and La Mola would make the day unnecessarily rushed.
Return to Ibiza
Aim to reach La Savina well before departure. Allow additional time if you need to return a bicycle or scooter, refuel a vehicle or wait for a taxi.
After arriving in Ibiza, have dinner close to the port or your hotel. Keep the evening flexible instead of adding another ticketed experience.
Day 3 – San Antonio, a Boat Experience and Sunset
The third day moves to Ibiza’s west coast. Start later after Formentera and make one daytime experience the focus.
Late Morning in San Antonio
Arrive in San Antonio before lunch and walk along the promenade and harbour. This gives you time to find the departure point if you have booked a boat experience.
San Antonio’s harbour area is busy during summer, so do not assume the meeting point will be immediately visible. Check the operator’s instructions before leaving your accommodation.
Choose a Boat Trip or Beach Route
For a day on the water, compare boat trips from Ibiza through Clubtickets. Look at the departure point, duration, swimming stops and return time rather than choosing only by the photographs.
Travellers looking for music and a livelier atmosphere can also compare the best boat parties in San Antonio before deciding. Check whether the experience is a dedicated party boat, a sunset event or a coastal trip with swimming stops, as each creates a different kind of day.
A shorter coastal excursion leaves room for dinner and sunset. A longer boat trip may become the entire daytime plan, which is completely reasonable during a seven-day holiday.
If the group prefers to explore independently, travel to Cala Bassa or Cala Comte. Both are popular, so arrive earlier and avoid attempting to visit several western beaches in a single afternoon.
Cala Bassa offers a sheltered setting surrounded by pine trees, while Cala Comte is known for clear water and views towards the small islands offshore. Choose one as the main stop and allow enough time to enjoy it.
Alternative Day at O Beach
Travellers who want a social pool experience can replace the beach or boat trip with an event at O Beach Ibiza.
Book through Clubtickets after checking the date, event style and entry conditions. Choose either O Beach or a separate boat party as the main afternoon plan unless the group specifically wants a very busy schedule.
Sunset on the West Coast
Return towards San Antonio for sunset. The Sunset Strip is convenient for bars, restaurants and onward transport, while a beach location can feel less urban.
If you choose a beach sunset, arrange the return journey beforehand. Taxis and roads can become busy once everyone begins leaving at the same time.
Have dinner in San Antonio and keep the later evening open. The main club night comes the following day.
Day 4 – Playa d’en Bossa and the Main Club Night
Day four is the centre of the nightlife itinerary. The previous evening is relatively controlled, and day five begins slowly enough to allow recovery.
Slow Morning and Beach Time
Have a late breakfast, spend time at the hotel pool or choose a comfortable section of Playa d’en Bossa beach.
This is also a suitable morning for a short activity. Clubtickets offers water sports in Ibiza, but check the exact location and duration before booking.
If the club night is the priority, avoid an activity that requires several hours in strong sun. Leave enough time to eat, hydrate and return to the hotel.
Afternoon Rest
Have lunch close to the beach, then return to your accommodation. A few unplanned hours make a significant difference before a long evening.
Check the ticket conditions, entry deadline and dress expectations. Save the Clubtickets ticket or QR code offline and confirm how the group will travel home.
Choose the Main Club Event
The best event is the one that matches the group’s preferred music and atmosphere. Do not automatically select a venue because it is the most famous or closest to the hotel.
If the group wants a large indoor production in Playa d’en Bossa, compare the available nights at Hï Ibiza. Clubtickets can help you secure the ticket, but the lineup, entry conditions and location should all form part of the decision.
Eat before entering the venue. A proper dinner is more useful than relying on snacks later in the night.
Groups staying outside Playa d’en Bossa should arrange the return before leaving. Keep the hotel address saved and agree on a meeting point in case anyone becomes separated.
Day 5 – Recovery and Northern Ibiza
Day five is deliberately quieter. The aim is to see a different part of the island without forcing everyone to begin early after the main club night.
Late Breakfast and a Flexible Start
Sleep, hydrate and have a late breakfast. Do not set a strict departure time unless the group prefers structure.
If everyone is tired, replace the northern route with a local beach or hotel day. A seven-day itinerary should be adaptable rather than treated as a list that must be completed.
Lunch in Santa Gertrudis
Start in Santa Gertrudis, a village in the centre of Ibiza. Its pedestrian streets, cafés, restaurants and small shops make it suitable for a relaxed lunch.
This is an easy contrast to Playa d’en Bossa and San Antonio. Spend time walking around the centre rather than treating the village as a brief stop between beaches.
Continue North
If the group has energy, continue towards Sant Joan, Portinatx or one of the northern coves.
Cala Xarraca and S’Illot des Renclí suit travellers who want a smaller coastal setting, while Portinatx offers more services. Beach conditions and access can vary, so choose the stop that works for the group rather than automatically driving to the most remote option.
The north is easier with a car, but the driver should be comfortable with narrower roads and limited parking. Without a car, choose a destination that has a practical bus or taxi connection and avoid building the day around several separate coves.
A Quiet Evening
Return for dinner near your accommodation. This should be one of the week’s unplanned evenings.
If everyone has recovered and wants to go out, make the decision later rather than buying another major ticket in advance. Clubtickets can still be used to check available events, but there is value in keeping one evening free of fixed plans.
Day 6 – Santa Eulària and the East Coast
The east coast provides a calmer change of pace before the final day. Santa Eulària is particularly easy to combine with a beach, village or guided experience.
Morning in Santa Eulària
Walk along the promenade and marina before the day becomes hotter. The town has a central beach, shops and restaurants, so it works even when the group does not want another complicated travel day.
Continue towards Puig de Missa if you want a cultural stop and views over the town. Wear suitable shoes, as the route climbs away from the waterfront.
Choose an East-Coast Beach
After lunch, choose one nearby beach.
Cala Llonga has a broad bay and a straightforward resort layout. Cala Nova offers a more open coastal setting, while Es Canar is convenient if the group wants services close by.
Pick the beach that suits the group and spend the afternoon there. Moving between all three will leave less time for swimming and relaxing.
Add a Tour for More Structure
If you want to understand more of the island beyond the main resorts, compare guided tours around Ibiza before the trip. A tour can be useful for travellers without a car or groups that prefer having transport and timings organised.
Check where the tour begins and ends before booking through Clubtickets. A tour departing from Ibiza Town may require an early journey from Santa Eulària, while another experience may fit naturally into an east-coast day.
Dinner and an Optional Second Night Out
Have dinner in Santa Eulària or return to your accommodation. This can be the second nightlife opportunity if the group wants more than one club event during the week.
Choose something different from the main night. For example, pair a large club production earlier in the week with a smaller venue or a different music style.
Check how everyone feels after six days before booking. Keep the final day manageable if you have an early departure.
Day 7 – Ses Salines and a Flexible Final Evening
The final day should be simple enough to adapt around luggage, checkout and flight times.
Morning at Ses Salines
If you have a full day, travel to Ses Salines for one final beach morning. The long sandy beach and protected natural surroundings provide a different setting from the western coves.
Arrive early during busy periods. Bring only what you need and leave enough time to return to the hotel before checkout or departure.
Ibiza’s official tourism website provides an overview of the island’s beaches, coves and protected coastal areas.
Choose the Final Afternoon
For a late flight, return to the hotel, collect your luggage and eat close to your accommodation. Avoid adding a boat trip or distant beach that leaves no room for delays.
If you have another night on the island, choose between:
A final lunch near the beach
Shopping in Ibiza Town
A quiet afternoon in Talamanca
A return to a favourite place from earlier in the week
An additional Clubtickets experience if the group still has energy
Repeating a favourite beach can be more enjoyable than forcing another new location into the itinerary.
Final Dinner and Departure Planning
Finish with dinner in Ibiza Town, Santa Eulària or the area where you are staying. Choose somewhere that does not require another long taxi journey.
If you are flying the following morning, check your route to the airport before dinner. The official Ibiza Airport bus information lists connections with Ibiza Town and several resort areas, although availability can vary by route and season.
Before You Start Planning the Week
A seven-day itinerary works best when the busiest experiences are booked first and the flexible parts are added afterwards. If this is your first visit, the Ibiza first-time guide can help you choose where to stay, understand the main resort areas and decide how much nightlife to include.
Begin with the club event, boat experience and Formentera crossing that matter most to the group. These have fixed dates or departure times. Beaches, village visits, shopping and restaurant plans are usually easier to move.
A balanced week might include:
One major club night
One optional daytime or pool event
One boat trip
One Formentera day
Two quieter beach days
One cultural or village-focused day
At least one evening with nothing booked
This gives you enough variety without expecting everyone to be ready for a major event every afternoon and evening.
Where to Stay for a Seven-Day Ibiza Holiday
Your accommodation affects how much of the week is spent travelling.
Ibiza Town
Ibiza Town is a strong all-round base for this itinerary. It provides convenient access to Dalt Vila, La Marina, the Formentera ferry and restaurants, while Playa d’en Bossa and the airport are relatively close.
It works particularly well for first-time visitors who want culture, nightlife, boat trips and different dining areas within easy reach.
Playa d’en Bossa
Playa d’en Bossa is better for travellers who want a long beach, daytime venues and easy access to major nightlife. It also places you reasonably close to Ibiza Town and the airport.
The area becomes lively during summer, so choose accommodation slightly away from the busiest sections if sleep is important.
San Antonio
San Antonio is a practical base for boat departures, sunsets and western beaches. It can also offer a wider range of accommodation budgets.
The main disadvantage is the distance from Ibiza Town, Playa d’en Bossa and some eastern parts of the island. If your Clubtickets bookings are mostly in the south or around Ibiza Town, factor in the additional transport.
Santa Eulària
Santa Eulària is suited to couples, families and travellers who prefer a calmer base. The promenade, marina, restaurants and central beach make it easy to enjoy days without travelling elsewhere.
Groups planning several late nights should arrange their return transport in advance.
Build the Week Around Your Clubtickets Bookings
For a seven-day holiday, Clubtickets works best as the framework for a few priority experiences.
Begin by opening the Ibiza events calendar and comparing what is available during your dates. Choose the nightlife event that matters most, then place the recovery day immediately afterwards.
Next, choose one sea experience. This might be the Formentera ferry, a coastal boat trip, a boat party or a water activity. Check where it starts before deciding which day it fits. A San Antonio departure belongs with the west-coast day, while an Ibiza Town departure may work better after Dalt Vila or before a relaxed dinner near the port.
The third step is to keep some time flexible. Beaches, villages and restaurant plans do not all need reservations. Once the fixed Clubtickets experiences are placed in the week, leave several mornings or evenings open.
A practical booking sequence is:
Flights and accommodation
Main club event
Formentera ferry
Boat trip, boat party or water activity
Optional second event
Transport for late-night or remote plans
Restaurants that require reservations
Before paying for multiple tickets, compare every departure point and venue with the previous and following day. An attractive event may not fit the itinerary if it creates two journeys across the island or removes the only recovery period.
How to Adapt the Itinerary to Your Travel Style
For a Party-Focused Group
Keep the main club night on day four and add a daytime event on day three or a second nightlife plan on day six.
Reduce the number of long road trips. Use the northern day as a hotel, pool or local beach day so the group can recover without missing another booked event.
For Couples
Replace the O Beach option with a quieter boat trip or long beach lunch. Spend more time in Dalt Vila, Santa Gertrudis and Santa Eulària, and keep at least two evenings free for dinner.
One well-chosen club night can still be part of the trip without controlling the entire week.
For Families
Remove the late club night and use the fourth day for a beach, water activity or guided excursion. Choose accessible beaches with services and avoid moving between several coves in one day.
Formentera can work well for families, but allow extra time for boarding, meals and moving between La Savina and the beach.
For Visitors Without a Car
Stay in Ibiza Town or Playa d’en Bossa and focus on places connected by buses, taxis and ferries. The full guide to exploring Ibiza without a car explains which accommodation areas work best and how to organise beaches, events and boat departures around public transport.
Use organised trips for destinations that would otherwise require several transport changes. San Antonio, Formentera and Santa Eulària can each be planned as focused days, but remote northern beaches and southwest viewpoints require more careful transport arrangements.
For a More Relaxed Holiday
Keep Formentera, the boat experience and one club night, then remove one of the days involving longer journeys.
Spend the additional time at the hotel, in Talamanca, Playa d’en Bossa or Santa Eulària. You can enjoy a varied Ibiza holiday without visiting every coast.
Common 7-Day Planning Mistakes
Booking Every Night in Advance
Seven nights do not need seven events. Energy levels, weather and group preferences can change during the trip.
Choose the priority nights through Clubtickets and leave room for quieter dinners or last-minute decisions.
Ignoring Travel Time
Ibiza looks small on a map, but summer traffic, taxi queues and parking can lengthen journeys. A day involving San Antonio, Ibiza Town and Santa Eulària will usually feel fragmented.
Group plans geographically and include the return journey in every decision.
Placing Formentera After the Biggest Night
An early ferry after a late club event is rarely enjoyable. Put Formentera after a calm evening and leave enough time to reach the port.
Choosing Too Many Beaches
Travelling between beaches takes away the time you wanted to spend swimming and relaxing. One main beach and one nearby sunset location are usually enough for a day.
Forgetting the Meeting Point
Boat trips, ferries and tours may leave from different harbours or resort areas. Always use the location shown on the Clubtickets confirmation rather than relying on the general product name.
Conclusion
Seven days allows you to experience Ibiza’s variety. You can explore Dalt Vila, swim in Formentera, watch sunset on the west coast, enjoy a major club night and still have time for northern villages and the calmer east coast.
The itinerary works because its busiest days are separated by slower ones. Clubtickets can help secure the experiences that depend on a particular time or date, while beaches, meals and town visits remain flexible around them.
Book the events that matter most to your group, organise the transport attached to them and leave enough space to enjoy the island at a comfortable pace.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is seven days enough for Ibiza?
Yes. Seven days is enough for Ibiza Town, Formentera, several beaches, a boat experience, a major club night and visits to different parts of the island. It also provides space for a recovery day.
Is seven days too long if I mainly want nightlife?
No. A full week gives you a better choice of event dates and allows you to recover between major nights. It also means you can experience beaches, boat trips and Ibiza Town alongside the nightlife plans.
How many club nights should I book for one week?
One or two major club nights suit most travellers. A party-focused group may want more, but it is sensible to keep at least one evening completely unplanned.
Should I stay in one hotel for the whole week?
Most visitors will find one base more convenient. Changing hotels takes time and complicates luggage storage, transfers and fixed bookings.
A split stay can work if you want several nights in San Antonio followed by several nights near Ibiza Town, but it is not necessary for this itinerary.
Do I need a car for a seven-day Ibiza itinerary?
A car is useful for western coves, northern Ibiza and inland villages. However, it is possible to complete a modified version using buses, taxis, ferries and organised tours.
If you rent a car, do not drive after drinking and check parking conditions before visiting popular beaches.
Which day should I visit Formentera?
Choose a day following a quiet evening. Avoid placing the crossing immediately after the main club night or before an early flight.
What should I book through Clubtickets first?
Book the main club event first if a particular date or lineup matters most. Then secure the Formentera ferry and boat experience. Add water activities, tours or a second event after checking how they fit with transport and recovery time.
