Wondering what to do on one of the most famous islands of the Balearic Islands when you are with family? Although famous for the hustle and bustle of its festivities, Ibiza has more to offer families who come to enjoy the calm and sunshine of the island. For you, Villanovo have gathered the 10 activities to do with children for an unforgettable holiday.
For a family excursion in one of the hidden beauties of the island, go to the Salines Natural Park. Located in Sant Francesc, this islet promises an immersion in the nature where you can admire migratory birds but also marine animals all in a splendid natural setting.
For those in search of adventure and history and who want to avoid the crowds, there are the caves of Can Marçà. Once a smuggler's refuge, they are located in the hollow of the cliff of the port of San Miguel. Here you can count the number of stalagmites and stalactites. This cave offers nature lovers a unique excursion in the heart of rocks, emerald waterfalls and light games. Tours are available and last about 35 minutes.
