Ibiza is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean, and as such, the main language is Spanish or Catalan. But don’t worry almost all of the locals speak English.
The name Ibiza is derived from the Original Arabic word “Yabisah” as for Land or Landward in English. Eivissa is the official Catalan name and the name used by its inhabitants; but the name in Castilian Spanish and many other languages is Ibiza, often manifested by English speakers.
The Island of Ibiza is most famously known for its summer parties, with thousands of people flooding in for the big summer club nights.
There are eight main clubs on the Island :
These clubs are hosts to parties of international fame such as Cream, Manumission, F**k Me I’m Famous and more.
Climate
The climate of Ibiza is Mediterranean and has milder winters and slightly cooler summers than Mallorca. The winters are mild with temperatures around 15° Celsius (60° Fahrenheit) and some rain. The hot summer season lasts from June to September inclusive with temperatures regularly reaching 30°C (85°F), lots of sunshine and very little rain. Frost and snow are very rare.
Music
There also exists a genre of dance music named for Ibiza dubbed Balearic Beat, similarly to the way Goa trance is named for Goa, India. The style tries to reflect the atmosphere of Ibiza, and listeners often say they can see a Mediterranean sunset when they hear its euphoric, uplifting melodies. The atmosphere is brought on with the use of synthesized string instruments, the sound of waves, mandolins and guitars, and wispy vocals.
