Ibiza's the new winter wonderland, says RitmoCars
Winter has arrived in Ibiza, but it’s not quite the quiet island people perceive it to be. There’s still plenty to keep tourists occupied.

Ibiza maybe famed for its massive clubs, bustling bars and sunset beaches but the party scene takes a more tranquil turn as the summer season ends and winter sets in. As clubbers leave by their droves, the perception dawns that Ibiza turns into a quiet, barren island. However according to leading Ibiza car hire service RitmoCars, the Island is now beginning to earn itself a reputation as a prime winter tourist destination too.
With 300 days of sunshine guaranteed, Ibiza offers the warmer weather tourists crave during the cold wintery nights in the UK. Popular clubbing towns, such as San Antonio and Ibiza town, may be less crowded compared to the peak summer months but there is still plenty to see and do to keep tourists busily occupied.
San Antonio, one of Ibiza’s most popular towns, is laden with history- dating as far back as the 16th century. However it’s the typical Spanish ambience coursing through the narrow streets, which makes this coastal town increasingly popular during the winter months. With many locals living and working in the area, there are plenty of Spanish bars and restaurants open year round.
Similarly, Ibiza town sheds its ‘party’ tag for the winter months and offers tourists something completely different to the bars and clubs so adored during the summer.
As much as these places still maintain some sense of vibrancy, it’s the smaller, lesser known towns and villages which are gaining popularity during the winter period. Hitting the road in Ibiza is becoming increasingly popular; offering tourists the freedom to explore the island without the need to follow a scheduled bus timetable.
With hundreds of vehicles made available for tourists throughout the year, RitmoCars have become one of the leading car hire services across the Balearic Islands. What first started primarily as a Mallorca car hire service now expands across Menorca, Formentera and Ibiza too- with the aim of encouraging visitors to hit the open road and explore the islands lesser known coastal towns and villages.
A spokesperson for RitmoCars said today
“Over the past five years, more and more tourists have travelled to Ibiza during the winter months. More flights are available to the island now, and with the weather staying moderately warm, it’s proving to be the perfect retreat for a lot of British tourists.”
“Since 2007, we’ve seen car hire bookings increase by roughly 30% during the winter months in Ibiza. The freedom to explore the island, without following a tour guide’s stringent itinerary, is something visitors seem to really prefer.”
