PSA: Increase in WhatsApp / Signal group spam and unsolicited DMs.
Hey all nothing too serious just a quick heads up for anyone coming here for the first time.
We’ve seen a sharp uptick lately in people commenting and DM’ing links to WhatsApp and Signal groups.
Just a heads up, treat these with caution.
If someone messages you out of the blue pushing a group, especially after you've made a post or comment here, be sceptical. There’s no real way to verify who’s behind those links, and this is a common angle for spam and scams.
If you actually want to meet people or build contacts, Ibiza is one of the easiest places in the world to do it in person. You’ll have a far better experience just talking to people out here rather than joining random group chats beforehand. I'm not here to tell you what to do, but I can tell you for certain you don't need to take the risk.
Stay safe 👍

Tourist FAQs and more.
Thinking about visiting Ibiza soon? Welcome to our sticky post containing a few common questions and answers that might be able to help you:
When should I go to Ibiza?
You can visit Ibiza year-round. The island has over 300 days of sunshine, with December to February being the coolest months (around 14–16°C). For northern Europeans, it can still feel mild, but it isn’t beach weather for most.
The main party season runs from mid-May/early June until mid-October. If you’re after large-scale events and superstar DJs, July and August are peak months, but they’re also the busiest and most expensive.
Consult the table below for an overview on a month-by-month basis:
| Month | Party Intensity | Weather | Avg Temp (°C) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jan | Sparse, small events | Mild, cool | 15 |
| Feb | Sparse, small events | Cool, some rain | 14 |
| Mar | Very quiet, warm-up events | Warming, occasional rain | 16 |
| Apr | Early openings, busy weekends, quiet weekdays | Pleasant, warming | 18 |
| May | Lots of openings, good balance | Warm, sunny | 22 |
| Jun | Most parties active, busy but not peak | Hot, sunny | 26 |
| Jul | Peak season | Hot, dry | 30 |
| Aug | Peak season, most intense | Very hot, sometimes humid | 31 |
| Sep | Still busy, good mix, some closings | Warm, some rain | 28 |
| Oct | Closing parties | Cooling, occasional rain | 24 |
| Nov | Few events | Mild, cool | 19 |
| Dec | Quiet except Christmas/NYE | Mild, cool | 16 |
Who's playing this year / When are the big club events?
Most lineups are released between February and April. Some residencies announce earlier, but the full calendar is usually complete by spring.

Tickets & Entry FAQs
When is the last entry for a club?
There is no last entry in Ibiza unless your ticket specifies a certain time. Otherwise, you can enter anytime while the club is open.How far in advance should I buy tickets?
The earlier, the cheaper. Tickets are dynamic pricing: months ahead is cheapest, day-of is most expensive.My friend bought our tickets, and their name is on all of them. Will I still get in?
Yes. Only the QR code matters.Do I need to print my ticket?
No. A digital QR code on your phone is enough.My ticket says entry before 1 AM. What if I arrive later?
You won’t be refused — you’ll just need to pay the difference in price.What if the event is sold out online?
Some venues hold back a small reserve of tickets for the door. Arrive early if you want to chance it.
Will I need ID for clubbing?
You’ll need one of the following (usually nothing else is accepted):
- EU or UK driving licence (other non-EU licences often refused)
- Passport
- A photocopy of your passport (sometimes accepted, but not guaranteed)
If you look under 30, expect to be asked. Always bring proper ID — being refused can cost you your ticket and a long taxi ride back.
How do I get around while I’m here?
- Buses: In summer, bus routes are reliable between Ibiza Town, Sant Antoni, and Santa Eulalia. Winter services are very limited.
- Disco Bus: Cheapest way to clubs (€4–5), runs from Ibiza Town, Playa d’en Bossa, and San Antonio with a fun atmosphere.
- Taxis: Book via WhatsApp (+34 971 333 333, send address or pin) Guide here. Taxi Click app also works, but can be buggy. Fares €25–40.
- Car hire: Best option for groups or off-season. Book early, choose “Full to Full” fuel, and photograph the car at pickup. Third-party excess insurance online is far cheaper than rental desk add-ons.
- Compare here: www.doyouspain.com
- Compare here: www.doyouspain.com
- Uber: Legal since 2024, but drivers are still scarce. Use Taxi Click or WhatsApp as first choice.
- Ferries: Santa Eulalia ferry links Ibiza Town, Es Canar (Hippy Market), Cala Llonga, Santa Eulalia, and Formentera. San Antonio ferries connect to west-coast beaches.
Tip: After-club taxis are very hard to get (6 AM queues are huge). Options: leave 10 mins before closing, Disco Bus, or book a private transfer in advance.

No — asking for drugs is against Reddit’s T&Cs.
Cannabis clubs do exist and are easy to find via Google. They usually require ID and a small sign-up fee.

Amistat Hostel & General Questions
1-So this is my first time visiting Ibiza but this time budget is kinda tight so I’ll be spending my money smart and staying for the first time at a hostel (Amistat). Any reviews/experiences about it?
2-How is the crowd there I’m 20 is it mixed or mostly old/young?
3-Is it easy to sleep at a hostel? Especially in Ibiza I think people have very different itinerarys where I may sleep 7 am where my roommate gets up 10 am to eat breakfast and head to the beach.
4-How is transportation to clubs like Hi & Pacha (that area in general) taxis seems close only 20-30 minutes but will be expensive if alone is there any where I can share ride with 2-3 others?
5-If not, how is the bus system is it easy & reliable? Also how safe is it especially at night (at buses) will I encounter crazy drunk people?

British builder going to Ibiza? How easy?
Hi, my sister’s partner owns a place in Santa Euralia and wants me to come and do some refurbishments on his property. I am a builder based in England and have never been to Spain before. The work will last a few months and I’m wondering if anybody has any tips for me before I agree to go there? ie work visa, paying for building materials (how can this be done as I only have a UK bank account?), applying for planning permission/building permits, hiring tradespeople, etc.
Thank you
Would I ruin the trip if im traveling solo and stay in a hotel instead of a hostel?
This will be my first solo trip, I really want to stay in a hostel but safety, privacy, and cleanliness are a concern. I can’t really sleep if there’s someone in the room so I don’t think hostels are for me. Will I be missing out if I stay in a hotel? I still want to meet people and make great experiences!
Thank you

Accidentally bought 10 tickets for the wrong date at Ushuaïa – any advice?
Has anyone ever accidentally bought tickets for the wrong date? 🤦
So I just did something stupid — I bought 10 tickets for Tomorrowland & Dimitri Vegas x Like Mike at Ushuaïa Ibiza for TODAY (3rd June) when I meant to buy them for 10th June. €650 potentially gone if I can’t sort this out.
Already contacted Clubtickets but they say up to 48h to respond — way too late for today’s event.
Has anyone been in this situation before? Did you manage to get a refund or a date transfer? Any advice would be massively appreciated 😅
DM me if you have any tips! 😉

Ibiza Penjamin question 🤔
Me and my 2 Buddy’s are in Madrid and we bought a really taxed weed pen for 75 euro. We have now decided we gonna go to Ibiza for Calvin Harris and David Guetta. Are we okay to bring it in a checked bag? I would assume people are bringing way worse than that but we’re just not sure it works most of the time in America but obviously the laws are different. We’re leaving in 3 days help ussss please asap

Best beach clubs that are chill
Hi! We are a couple in our mid 30s who are spending 7 days in Ibiza. We’re going mainly for the beaches and to see a few djs. We have booked so far for beach clubs - Cala Bossa Beach Club, Blue Marlin , and Nikki Beach.
We tried to book Jondal, Amante and Beso Beach Formentara but these were all booked up already.
Where else would you recommend for beach clubs that have a beautiful beach to swim and has great food?
