This Week's Must-Reads

The booming trend in Ibiza now extends to unconventional New Year’s Eve stays, with camper vans and cabins being rented out illegally for as much as 287 euros a night. While offering unique lodging experiences, this practice sparks legal and environmental concerns, especially in protected areas like the Ses Salines Natural Park.

The New Year's Day swim at Ses Salines beach, a tradition started by Ibiza's Dutch community, has evolved into a massive social event with communal picnics and 300 bottles of rosé. This unique celebration, supporting local charities, embodies the island's spirit of community and festivity.

Sant Joan in Northern Ibiza experienced a near-freezing night with temperatures plummeting to 1ºC, marking a rare chilly episode on the typically balmy island. This unusual weather pattern, highlighted by the State Meteorological Agency, contrasts sharply with Ibiza's usual warm climate.
