Tips for Visiting Ibiza with Kids

Best time to visit: The spring months- April to June and the early fall- September to October are pleasant and warm months for families to visit Ibiza with kids. 

Sun protection: The Mediterranean sun can be strong for children, so you must carry UV-protective swimwear, wide-brimmed hats, and high-factor sunscreen.

Dining hours: Restaurants in Ibiza typically stay open later in the evening. You can find beach cafes and other places that offer delicious menus for your kids. 

Stroller access: Ibiza's promenades and towns are stroller-friendly. But for cobbled streets in older towns like Dalt Vila or beach trails, a baby carrier is a better option.

Be Flexible: Island time is real, so allow for relaxed schedules and spontaneous discoveries with kids.
