Although Ibiza is renowned for many things, family activities is perhaps one of its most prized assets. From beautiful walks to leisurely beach days, cinema trips to family dinners, the White Isle has it all! Read on for some fantastic ideas on how to spend your luxury holiday in a way that maximises precious family time in the best way possible…

HOT AIR BALLOON TRIP

For a break from the hustle and bustle of the island at this time of the year, we would highly recommend a fabulous flight over the iconic landscape of Ibiza in a hot air balloon! Sharing this magical experience with your family is something to be cherished, floating amongst clouds and flying over the rolling hills of the white isle. Starting in the morning with cooler temperatures in Sant Rafel, you will softly ascend along the coast with killer views of the Mediterranean and all the rest…

AGUAMAR

For a fun-filled sunny day and ‘splashtastic thrills’, head to the Aguamar Waterpark in downtown Playa d’en Bossa. This is a park straight out of every child’s dream, packed with colourful and exciting waterslides for all ages. The park also has a restaurant as well as picnic areas and lawns to sunbathe on – catering for all members of the family! With excellent life-guards and a perfectly sized site, parents feel comfortable letting their children roam free, allowing some downtime for them too – this is a perfect family day out, particularly for those with small children and is sure to earn parents lots of brownie points!

HORSERIDING

One of the things we love most about Ibiza is it’s spectacular landscape and wildlife, to experience this natural beauty first-hand a horse-riding hack is the perfect way to go. These unique rides in the wild, wonderful North on healthy, happy horses is an ideal family adventure and is open to all levels of riders. North Ride Ibiza is a small stable located in the mountains between San Joan and Portinatx, in the middle of one of Ibiza’s wildest and most beautiful areas with calm and reliable horses – we would highly recommend!

MACAO RESTAURANT

Macao is the ideal spot for a family dinner in the gorgeous town of Santa Gertrudis. With a lovely outdoor garden eating area, this restaurant serves top-notch Italian cuisine, we particularly love the pizza which is their speciality – homemade in a wooden oven with skill and love. The restaurant is also known for its delicious assortment of pastas, as well an extensive wine-list for the more senior members of the family! As if it couldn’t get any better, there is also a small kids play area in the back…

ES PORTIXOL WALK

The small cove of Es Portitxol is one of the most hidden beaches in the island of Ibiza and is the dreamiest setting you could possibly imagine. To reach it enjoy a scenic walk with incredible sea-views around the cliffside near Sant Mateu and follow the rocky path down to the secret stunning cove. Once there, picnic on the waters-edge, swim in the azure waters and jump off rocks on either side with the kids, or alternatively our favourite activity is to sunbather atop the fisherman’s huts for the most beautiful family day out…

We hope this inspires a wide range of family fun for your holiday on our favourite island – happy adventuring!
