Santa Eularia des Riu (Santa Eulalia), East Ibiza
A quieter but popular town on east coast of the island
Situated 15km north along the east coast from Ibiza town is the charming municipality of Santa Eularia. This area has a slower and more relaxed pace of life than its neighbours of Ibiza town and San Antonio.
There are beaches, markets and charming villages, making this an attractive destination for families and travellers wanting an alternative to nightlife.
The pretty town centre is based around a pretty promenade, where there are plenty of restaurants, bars and cafés, plus a stunning white sandy beach. Well known for its gastronomy this is a good spot to pick a restaurant and order your fill of delicious seafood.
Shopping here is also very good with some lovely boutiques in the town, but can be pricey around the exclusive marina area. The beautiful old town is worth the 15-minute walk from the new town and is home to the church of Puig de Missa

Nightlife in Santa Eularia
This town really comes alive at night and you will find many families and couples strolling around the promenade, marina and central town area. There are an abundance of nice bars to choose from once you have had dinner, and although not known for its clubbing scene there are a few late night options to enjoy with live music and DJs.
The marina offers some live music and variety...although some of these seemed a little karaoke-style but worth a look.
The front promenade is full of lovely late night restaurants and for something a little different and more quirky then head into the smaller street away from the shore.
