Put this in the ‘things to do in Ibiza’ forum but I guess it will touch upon Ibiza hotels and parties that are on out of season as well. All recommendations welcome!
Myself and a mate are doing the Ibiza marathon on Saturday 4th April. I’m not massively into running but I do want to run a marathon once in my life just to say I’ve done it and thought why not do one in my favourite place on the planet. I’ve been to Ibiza about 15 times before but never out of season so I’m really looking forward to seeing what it’s like and going through the likes of Santa Gertrudis and Santa Eularia as the sun sets will hopefully make the run more enjoyable! Very different marathon to the ones I’m used to in Ibiza!
My friend has never been to Ibiza before and we arrive very early on 3rd April and I will get a car from the airport. Basically I’m looking for any tips and recommendations of where we should base ourselves for the weekend and for things to do on the Friday (which doesn’t involve booze/partying but can involve lots of paella for carb loading). I was thinking that we should book a place to stay in Ibiza town or Figuretas as the marathon starts on the port and I figure the town will have a nice buzz after the marathon is over. Does anyone have any hotels that they recommend? I usually stay in Salinas but want to be a bit closer to the action this time. We’ll definitely want a well deserved night out on the Saturday so hopefully there will be some parties on (perhaps Pacha or Heart may be open?) But yeah, any tips on the above and must-see/do things that I should take an Ibiza virgin to on the Friday (taking into account places that might be closed out of season) will be most welcome.
For those who are interested and might be tempted to sign up(!), have a look at the route here: https://www.ibizamarathon.com/en/marathon-route/
Thanks in advance!
