Figueretas in April

[Clara]

Will any restaurants along Figueretas promenade likely be open in early April? It was all closing up last week and I don't want to book to stay in Figueretas if it's all going to be pretty dead.

I'd say most of them (but maybe not all) will be open. Easter week is when tourism here normally starts kicking off again and seasonal restaurants open again.

Great, thanks Stivi!

We went first weekend of April this year, absolutely loved the vibe and was shocked at how lively it was. ibiza town in the day was just perfect, locals galore chilling in the spring sun wearing thick jumpers and coats while I sat in shorts topless sweating and getting sun burn :-D
Hoping to go back again next April with the kids, even my Mrs got the blues when we returned it was such a wholesome time and the locals were so much friendlier then in peak season.

Thanks Ollie! Were most of the cafes and restaurants along the promenade open? We had a few lovely meals there in August but when we returned last week, virtually everywhere had shut or was about to close for the season, meaning that it felt a bit like a ghost town. I noticed that many of the hotels around there don't open until late April so I feared it would be the same in early April too.

locals were so much friendlier then in peak season.

We found this last week too. I suppose the influx of tourists, especially those who are rather 'worse for wear', must test even the most patient person!

I wouldn't say most were open along the beach. Still enough to enjoy a variety of scenery.
Felt like a different place to the Ibiza I've been to before, workers were in a cafe in the morning in work wear drinking brandy looking at us gone out
Plenty of cafes/bars open in figuretas and we ate in Ibiza town.
Took a drive to cala llonga in the car and was surprised over half the bars there were open to! The scenery was stunning without the tourists even pdb and San an had a bit of charm about them
