Gay Ibiza 2024

Ibiza

Ibiza, or Eivissa in Spanish, is the most famous party island in the world. Every summer, millions of tourists come over for the ultimate combination of sun, beach and dance music.

The island is the home of the most famous party brands and every summer all the top DJ's in the world play their sets in the biggest venues you can imagine.

Nightlife only starts after (very late) dinner time, so be sure you won't find any crowded bar before 1 am. By that time, the two main gay areas in Ibiza Town will be crawled with a mix of muscle mary's, trendy guys and fashion queens. The main gay drags area Calle de La Virgen, down by the harbour and the terraces of Calle Alfonso XII, next to the main entrance of Dalt Villa.

The island of Ibiza has the most beautiful white beaches. But of course, you do not want to get sun burnt on a secluded strip of white sand. No, you want to be seen and sow off your tint and gym results. That's why Ibiza has a few gay beaches, where most of the people you see at night, will rest their gorgeous (or less gorgeous) bodies in the sand.

The main gay beach is Platja des Cavallet / Playa de es Cavallet , at the southern tip of the island. This is a strip of sand which is most popular with the gays.

Platja des Cavallet / Playa de es Cavallet

The main gay beach is Platja Des Cavallet, at the southern tip of the island. This is a strip of sand which is most popular with the gays. The beach has no rocks, nudity is allowed, has a big gay beach club (Chiringay) with pumping dance music all day long and of course a large cruising area in the dunes behind the club. Cavallet can be reached by bus, but it is recommended to take a (hired) car or scooter or a taxi. From the parking lot you need to walk along the straight beach for 15 minutes to the southern tip. You can also take the speed boat from the Figueretas beach.
