Hello there.
I was in Ibiza in March a couple of years ago and it was very quiet indeed.
Ibiza town had a few things going on, but it was mainly locals who were there.
Although almost all the shops and bars right down to the end of the Port are shut, there are many, many shops still open in the lanes just below the city walls and in the Carrer del Mar, running parallel to the harbour. Designer fashion from Diesel, Mango and Levis (at cheaper than summer prices); all sorts of shoe shops, such as Angels and Buffalo (great value); jewellery stores; souvenir shops selling trinkets and knick-knack; even the famous Croissant Show at the foot of the main gates to Dalt Vila is open.
As for San Antonio, well, winter is the season when the locals reclaim the town for themselves. Gone are the disco-antics of the summer months; Es Paradis, Eden, Café Mambo, Summum, Soul City and all the other bars are shut .
As the second largest town, San Antonio suddenly takes on a very typical Spanish ambience - there are many locals who live here all year round: there are shops, bars, restaurants (some excellent ones), a cinema and many of the 'trappings' of any normal town.
There is a reasonably lively winter night scene if you're in the know with bars and pubs which attract many Ibicencos from all around the island. To find more of a club scene you'll have to venture further afield.
I hope this helps, but I have to say that although it's a lovely place to visit in winter time, it's nothing like the vibrant night-life capital it is during the summer months. If thats what you're looking for, then maybe best to try somewhere like the south of Tenerife.
Good luck |
