Top 5 family-friendly things to do in Ibiza for non-clubbers

Read time: 2 minutes

Think Ibiza is all late nights and louder-than-life DJs? Think again. Peel back the glow sticks (if you dare) and you’ll find an island packed with family-friendly fun, stunning scenery and plenty to keep non-clubbers smiling. Here are five reasons Ibiza deserves a spot on your holiday wish list — even if your idea of a big night out ends at dessert!

1. Calm, crystal-clear beaches
Swap the dance floor for soft sands at Cala Bassa, Cala Llonga or Cala Vadella. Shallow waters, beach cafés and relaxed vibes make these spots ideal for families and anyone who prefers paddling over partying.

2. Wander through Ibiza Old Town (Dalt Vila)
Step back in time with a stroll around UNESCO-listed Dalt Vila. Think cobbled streets, historic walls and unbeatable views — plus plenty of ice-cream stops along the way. Maybe a private tour of the historic Teatro Pereyra plus a glass of cava?

3. Boat trips and snorkelling adventures
Hop on a glass-bottom boat or family-friendly cruise to explore hidden coves and turquoise waters. It’s a great way to see the island from a different angle (and keep little ones entertained). Can we tempt you to a private boat headed to Formentera… and beachside lunch? Swim in see-through waters, sample local food and see the sights on this small island, including La Mola lighthouse.

4. Explore nature and walking trails
Ibiza’s countryside is a hidden gem. From coastal paths to pine-scented walks inland, it’s perfect for gentle adventures and a slower pace of holiday life. Book a private full day tour and visit the Old Town, learn about local traditions, and visit footprint-free-beaches.

5. Soak up the sunset — Ibiza style
No DJ required. Head to Cala Comte or Benirràs Beach for a sunset that stops everyone in their tracks. Camera out, worries off. Or hop on a sunset cruise with a visit to San Antonio – maybe leave the kids at home for this one (supervised, of course).

Ibiza proves you don’t need to party until sunrise to fall in love with the island. From beaches to culture and outdoor adventures, it’s a destination with something for everyone — and the perfect excuse to start planning your next sunshine escape.
