This is the historical side of Ibiza, the old town within the castle. Can't miss that, you’ll see it from every part of the town, easy to get to it and free
For those that are not there only for fun and summer thrill this is a must. I was there mid-February, the town was quiet and relaxed before the spring break and summer madness, perfect time to visit.
Topical narrow, cobbled stone streets going up to the cathedral and the upper terraces with wonder view.
Most shops and pubs were closed but again, it didn’t bother me, take your time, this is worth spending the whole afternoon.

Breathtaking- not literally! A mix of tradition and cosmopolitan feel, crowded but you had room to breath. It was the perfect romantic walk. Hint: There is always more to see, twice we almost ended our walk by accident. Reach the top to the clock, come back from the other side at the port, end in an amazing luxurious plaza

We spent about three hours in Ibiza town. It was 30c so that was enough, I'm in my 70s and was with daughter and 8 year old grandson. We made our way up to the walls and then wended our way back through the little streets, stopping for drink on the way. THe views were superb, had it been cooler I would have been happy to go to the top.

When in Ibiza Town a trip up to the Castle is a must. It will take you a while as the walk way does wind around, however this year there were a couple of new short cuts as they are renovating the whole castle. The views from the top are fantastic and there are plenty of bars and cafes en-route up and down to quench your thirst and hunger on hot days. Get off you backside and go explore

While in Ibiza last summer we stumbled upon a castle like structure built into one of the hills there. If you go to Old Ibiza Town you can get to it. The entrance looks is a draw bridge, and once you enter you will see that the castle itself has all these little homes built into it - very quaint.
If you can find your way through the winding cobble streets, there is a ramp at the top of the castle, with the most amazing city views.
I highly recommend going to see this. Its about the only site seeing we did when we were there and its a nice esacpe from the clubs and beaches.

This is a must, don't make the same mistake I did and wear sandels with no grip on the sole as it's very steep and windy and can be slippy on the stones. Lots of lovely little bars and some stunning restaurants as you go in from the Old Town. We went during the day but a friend of mine suggested that the evening would be better as it's all lit up. There are so many little pathways to follow but make sure you stop at points and take in the views, it's fabulous. How did they get the cranes up the top????

We stopped at Ibiza on our cruise in May. We're not party people, so the club life that Ibiza is known for didn't appeal to us. And spending the day at a beach seems a waste when vising somewhere you've never been before. We always look for what's unique in the area to vist. A self walking tour of the town and particularly the castle was perfect. It's very impressive. Don;t miss it!
Then stop and have some Sangria at a local cafe.

Is there any car parking near the castle please? Thankyou
Written August 19, 2019
I'm not sure, but theres a very large carpark on your way into the town it's on your right near Mc Donald's nit far to walk from there the Plazza is well worth the visit to eat at Hard Rock Cafe is very good.

I would like to have a wedding performed on the grounds of the castle of Ibiza. Is this possible?
Written May 29, 2018
inside the castle there are shops and even homes. We did not notice but there may be a point of contact that you could go to to find out.

Es buena idea alquilar por dos o tres días un auto para recorrer la Isla, hay muchos problemas para aparcar?
Written January 3, 2018
I do not speak spanish, but I give you the answer in English.
During mid- & low season it should not be a problem to get around with a car. Parking outside the cities/countryside is then no problem. In the Cities a bit more full. High season July/August is not recommended! Far too crowded.

yes , you just have to see what hours the Cathederal is open and some shops in the area

Hello, I am planning to visit Ibiza in October 2016. Are there any days / times wherein the Castle will be closed to tourists? Are we required to buy tickets? if so, how much would each cost? Appreciate your advice.
