September in Ibiza: A Perfect End-of-Summer Family Escape

The sun is starting to shine a little softer, the sea is still wonderfully warm and the busy summer crowds are slowly making way for calm. September in Ibiza might just be the perfect month for a family holiday: fewer tourists, a relaxed atmosphere and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the island like a local.

1. Beach Fun Without the Crowds
While the peak season is winding down, Ibiza still offers stunning beaches. For families, we recommend quieter spots like Cala Llenya, Cala Nova or the kid-friendly Cala Tarida. Perfect for building sandcastles, snorkeling or simply relaxing while the kids play.

2. Activities for Kids
September is ideal for outdoor adventures without the intense summer heat. Consider: Horseback riding at local stables, a real treat for young riders and beginners. Water activities like kayaking or paddleboarding in Santa Eulalia Bay. Adventure playgrounds or child-friendly yoga and sports classes for some outdoor fun.

3. Food & Drinks
With restaurants quieter in September, it’s easier to enjoy a relaxed lunch or dinner. 

- Can Guimo for a colorful and healthy breakfast or lunch.
- Boathouse Ibiza for a beautiful lunch with sea views.
- Local caterers for a picnic on the beach or at your villa.

4. Explore the Island Differently
September is perfect for discovering Ibiza at a slower pace:

Small villages like Santa Gertrudis or San José offer local markets and cozy cafés. Hiking in the green northern part of the island provides peace and breathtaking views. Spiritual spots and quiet coves are more accessible and less crowded.
