Get around

Buses - Ibiza Bus Timetables http://www.ibizabus.com

Rentals - require extra driving care, as the locals are terrible drivers. Many tourists have been run off the road trying to avoid deadly head-on collisions. New road construction has led to the temporary development of detour roads which are poorly marked and dangerous. During the summer months many tourist drivers under the influence of alcohol, pose a potential threat.

Taxis - can be used to get around the island and cost €20-30 to travel between cities.

Walking - the cities are small enough not to require any mechanical locomotion

Get out

• Formentera - neighboring tranquil and unspoilt island set in some of the cleanest, most turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, and a beautiful boat ride to get there
