Going to Ibiza with friends in October. Are there mountains there? anything interesting to see? Always had good advice on here so hoping someone can share their experiences. We are staying in the Bay Area.

Plenty of drugs for sure , Cocaine, Ecstasy and Puff.

Its 35years since I was there so I can't remember anything standing out. There is the colourful Ibiza old town and the castle. We visited the little island of Formentera but as I recall there wasn't much there. San Antonio similar. We were a bit too soon for Pacha,Manumission and El Paradis! We left that to our children many years later. Sunset on Ibiza is always worthwhile. Didn't do the interior or mountains. Bee

Thank you Bee x

Which Spanish do they speak?

[Info]

The official languages would be Castellano and Catalan and nowadays English would be widely understood. Bee

Thank you, should be ok then. I like to get off the beaten track and am often in places where there are no English speaking people, I love the challenge.

As it's not a very big island bee just pick an inland road end take pot luck. Solar or is it soler? Costa port very nice. Also the top of the island is worth a visit. A bag starting with the letter p. Long time since I visited. Don't go on any tough coastal roads up there elsewhere. Bit dicey. Well the one we went on was?

[Karen Jones]

Good old predicted text. A port at the top of the island beginning with p. Soler a lovely port.

When I was there we stayed in a place called Figueretas which is a suburb of Ibiza town. Cameron don't bother with the programme. It was a load of rubbish. I don't know why they bothered making it. Bee

Am I thinking of portinax? Or wrong island?

Soler is Majorca, Portinaxt is Ibiza.
