Choosing Your Destination

Unwind Watching Ibiza Sunsets

When we hear of Ibiza we instantly think of raving until the sun comes up but it’s not all about that! Of course you have the biggest events in the world at venues like; Amnesia, Zoo Project, DC-10, Pacha, Privilege, Sankeys and Ushuaia but there is soooo much more. Ibiza is renowned for its beautiful sunsets so why not take a hike to Es Vedra, this location is said to be the best viewing spots in Ibiza so take a towel and unwind. The great thing about sunset viewings is it’s free so you don’t need to dip into your booze money! If you’re super adventurous soar through the skies at heights of 400 meters on a breath taking parasailing experience! Not only will your adrenaline be pumping but you’ll get to see the Island from a completely different perspective, it’s so quite you can barely hear a thing. Water sports not your thing then simply relax on one of Ibiza’s top beaches including; Cala Saladeta, Cala De Sant Vincent, S’Arenal Petit or Sa Caleta. Ibiza has plenty of stunning day cruises so make sure you get yourself one booked up to avoid disappointment.

The Look

A bikini is an all-day everyday Ibiza essential, you never know when you may come across a beach for a nice cooling dip in the sea. We all know holidays are for over indulging in your favourite food and drinks, that’s why we love high waisted bikinis as they cover a world of sins! Slip on a lightweight crochet dress so you can easily whip on and off at the site of a beach. Choose sandals that have a good support and fasten securely like our Madison espadrille sandals, these are great for little hikes to watch the sunset. This season is all about small framed sunglasses so complete the look with a pair of cat frames for a super sexy look.
