Ibiza or Eivissa

IBIZA

Is a spanish island in the Mediterranean Sea 79 km off the coast of the city of Valencia in Spain. It is the third largest of the Balearic Islands, an autonomous community of Spain.

The island is well known for its summer club parties which attract large numbers of tourists, but the island and the Spanish Tourist Office have been working in order to promote more family-oriented tourism. Though some dispute the island's ability to attract higher income families in large numbers, the island is keen to dispel its image as merely a destination for young clubbers.Noted clubs include Space, Pacha, , Amnesia, Eden, and Es Paradis. The other notable player in the entertainment world in recent years has been Ibiza Rocks who feature more live acts than the established clubs.
