beaches, there are many sports activities available on the island. Whatever your
age, you can have a good time and come back energized from an eventful vacation.
If you are tired of swimming in the sea, there are other sports which will give
you the thrills.
One such option is going for sailing in the sea. This is very popular and many events
like the King’s cup are organized. You can go for solo-sailing or in a group or
just choose to cruise around. The facility of boat-charters makes it more convenient
for sailing and exploring the hidden lands! Fishing also makes an interesting pastime
here. The fishes are abundant in these waters and some fishing trips are also organized.
The sea here is a perfect place for diving and snorkeling. You can enjoy the marine
life in the clear and fresh water of the sea. There are diving schools which organize
certificate programs for diving.
There are a number of water parks off shore which promise a good time for the whole
family.
At the beaches, playing beach-volleyball on a sunny day is really fun. Swimming
in these parts is safe as you are guarded by the watchful eyes of the lifeguards.
Other water sports include parasailing, water bikes, water-skiing, rubber-rafting
and sea-kayaking – whatever be your choice you are promised a fun-filled and exciting
time.
Apart from beaches, Ibiza also has many hills and trekking or hiking is developing
as a new sport here. Climbing atop the green, pine-covered hills and having a majestic
view of the whole area is indeed a tempting idea.
You can also spend a quiet, peaceful day at any of the golf courses. The equipments
can be hired.
The cheapest way to get around the city is hiring a cycle. It is the best way to
travel around the island discovering many places on the way. It is also a good exercise.
