Ibizan hippy markets
Ibiza was a haven from the political oppression of Franco's Fascist government that ruled Spain from 1936 to 1975 seeing an influx of bohemians in the 1930's and 1960's. However, the hippie movement really reached its peak in the 60s starting in San Francisco and spreading across the world; a huge number settled in Ibiza, attracted to the cheap rent and rural lifestyle. Although there are still hippie colonies and flea markets, the hippie lifestyle remains a symbol of the past with the iconic peace signs, punch buggies and themed events. Punta Arabí is Ibiza's biggest (and best) hippy market; it is to be found just outside of Es Canar, a beautiful town in the northeast (20 km from Ibiza Town). Open Wednesdays The San Joan Hippy Market: An extremely cute and vibey hippie market with trinkets from the island, trippy bucket hats, hippie shirts and quality handmade merchandise. Sunday mornings you’ll probably to book a brunch or lunch table at the GIRI CAFE
Ibizan beaches and watersports
Beaches are what made Ibiza a popular tourist destination and there are an estimated 60-80 on the island. Ibiza Town has just one, Figueretas Beach, which is lined with fancy hotels. Playa d’en Bossa is the country's longest beach, but there are five more strips of sand at San Antonio bay. Sant Josep has the greatest number of beaches, while Santa Eulària has several charming seaside village shores. Ibiza Adventure Centre offers daytrips to the beaches by motorized rubber dinghies, while Viator offers scooter excursions to find many hidden coves. Let alone the infamous nudist beaches.
