Shopping in Ibiza
Discover the top Ibiza shops and shopping areas
Ibiza is great for shopping. As well as the fantastic markets, the shops are plentiful with well known chain brands and individual designers.
Head to Eivissa for some serious shopping, within Dalt Vila you can find antiques, modern art and some Ibizan style clothing.
Although not known for it's designer shopping the island has a very laid back style that makes shopping more of a pleasure and certainly a tourist activity that you are likely to want to indulge in...
Where are the best shops?
La Marina
Located between the Ibiza Town walls and the harbour, this is the best place for clothing. Lined with boutiques selling clothes, designer sunglasses, ceramic souvenirs, beautiful jewellery, shoes and even tattoos.
Heading towards the new town via Vara Del Ray, the shops become more local and more affordable, and full of everything you could want or need for your holiday in Ibiza. Leather goods, flip flops, clubbing wear, beach wear, jewellery and tourist souvenirs line the streets to tempt you.
Elsewhere…
Although you never can tell when the spending urge will strike. There are beach front boutiques, hippy markets and roadside stalls round every corner that can tempt you to purchase anything from art work to clothing. And in fact as many shops are open late in the summer months you may well even find yourself making a purchase and accessioning that clubbing outfit as you head out at 01:00.
There are many pretty villages in Ibiza, including Santa Gertrudis and San Carlos, both of which have beautiful boutiques and shops to explore. If you're looking for something special for yourself, a friend or for your home then these two towns are not to be missed.
Luxury and designer shopping
Marina Ibiza
This is one of the most exclusive harbours in the Mediterranean, and as such has created a small shopping area serving the high-end wealthy yacht owners that drop anchor here.
Every year various designers such as Fendi have installed pop-up stores here alongside Gucci, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, D&G, Loewe, Yves Saint Laurent and Bottega Venetta.
With so many A-list celebrities frequenting the island, it's no surprise that this is a popular shopping destination for those with the big budgets.
Markets
Hippy markets
Ibiza is perhaps best known for its markets, such as the Las Dalias hippy market in San Carlos and the Punta Arabi market in Es Canar. Although both appear to be overly touristy they are actually great places to spend the day and to spend your money.
Shop opening times
In keeping with the island’s laidback attitude, most shops open at around 11:00. You will find the markets begin a little earlier but still not as early as you would normally assume... a civilised 09:00 start is much better.
Spanish siesta is strictly observed between 14:00 and 18:00 and many shops will in fact stay open as late as midnight or 01:00 in the months of July and August. Throughout the rest of the year 20:00 is more normal.
