To say Ibiza and think of discos is almost automatic: the island has based its tourist fortunes on nightlife, which began as early as the 1970s with a few pioneering clubs that still set Ibizan nights ablaze; discos have since been joined by new entertainment formulas such as beach clubs, sunset bars and boat parties.
Discos and beach bars in Ibiza are concentrated in the areas of Playa d’En Bossa and San Antoni, the nerve centres of the Ibizan nightlife.
The typical Ibiza nightclub is a megaclub with several rooms, capable of accommodating thousands of people every night and impressing them with a spectacular ambience and striking design.
The resident DJ is always an international star who is joined by equally famous guests: we are talking about the likes of Sven Väth, Dimitri and Paul Van Dyk; the musical genres may vary within the same club depending on the night or the rooms, but the ones that are most popular are house, techno and electronic. Light jockeys, bartenders, dancers and image girls are chosen from among the most experienced and sexy in the world.
Given the not-so-affordable entrance fees it’s best to go straight for the best that Ibiza has to offer: take note of the names of the best discos and beach bars in Ibiza that we list below!
Don’t expect access to top entertainment at a cheap price: entry to the most exclusive clubs can cost between 40 and 80 euros and expect to pay 10-15 euros for a beer or 9 for a bottle of water! Beach clubs and sunset bars are generally cheaper.
Nightlife in Ibiza actually already starts in the afternoon, with boat parties or music in the beach bars generally continuing until midnight. Sunset is another highlight, with aperitifs and dinners in beach clubs or sunset bars.
The discos never fill up before two in the morning and close around 6.30 am.
Here is an overview of Ibiza’s most iconic clubs, each with its own unique history and contribution to the island’s legendary music scene.
Founded in 1973, Pacha is the oldest discotheque in Ibiza still in operation. Its iconic logo with two cherries is recognised worldwide as a symbol of glamour and quality music. Its theme nights are legendary, such as ‘Flower Power’, celebrating the island’s original hippie spirit.
With a capacity of 3,000 people, the club offers several rooms, each with its own musical style; the Main Room is the beating heart of the club, while the Funky Room and the Global Room offer musical alternatives for all tastes. Pacha is not just a disco, but an institution that has shaped Ibiza’s clubbing culture.
Amnesia, opened in 1976, is famous for its epic techno and house nights. The club boasts two huge dance floors: the Terrace, flooded with light at dawn thanks to its glass roof, and the Main Room, known for its dark and intense atmosphere.
With gigs and resident DJs that have become clubbing legends such as Sven Väth’s Cocoon and Cream Ibiza, the must-attend event for trance music lovers, Amnesia is the top of the Ibizan nightlife scene. Even its foam parties are way above average: firing from foam cannons in the summer months is none other than Paris Hilton, in double role as DJ and party queen.
If you manage to get yourself a VIP entrance, you can admire from above the spectacular view of the Amnesia people raising their hands to the sky in moments of collective euphoria.
Where else could the world’s biggest disco be located if not in Ibiza? Privilege ‘s main hall could contain most of the other clubs on the island… and this is just one of the rooms of this over-the-top club!
Originally opened in the 1970s as a restaurant with a pool, it has evolved into one of Ibiza’s most spectacular nightclubs. Its most distinctive feature is the huge glass dome that towers over the main dance floor, offering a breathtaking view of the sunrise.

Its most iconic party, ‘Circoloco’, is considered a must for lovers of real electronic music.

An authentic Lio-style evening starts with a sublime dinner, during which acrobats and dancers enchant the audience with their spectacular performances. After one o’clock it is the audience’s turn to open the dancing on the club floor.
Ibiza is not only famous for its legendary discos, but also for its enchanting beach clubs that offer a unique experience of relaxation and fun by the sea. These clubs perfectly combine the relaxed atmosphere of the island’s beaches with a touch of glamour and quality music. From breathtaking sunsets to beach parties, Ibiza’s beach bars have become must-see destinations for those visiting the island.
As VIP as it gets, to cater for its discerning clientele the Blue Marlin beach club has set up a water taxi that takes guests back to their private yachts at the end of the night. Don’t worry if you don’t have a boat: you can also get here by land, but wear your most elegant costume.
The restaurant’s cuisine is first class, with Mediterranean and oriental fusion dishes, but Blue Marlin is not just a place to relax, dine and chat. Get ready to rock: between live music and DJ sets, Blue Marlin’s parties go on until 4am.

Bora Bora, located at the southern end of Playa d’en Bossa, has been an institution in the Ibiza clubbing scene for over 30 years. Known as one of the most accessible and fun beach clubs on the island, Bora Bora offers a more relaxed and bohemian atmosphere than some of its more exclusive competitors.
The club is famous for its beach parties that last all day and go well into the night. The music is mainly house and techno, with DJ sets keeping the energy high from morning until the early hours. It is the ideal place for those seeking the authentic Ibiza spirit, where the party never stops.
An essential element of Ibiza’s clubbing scene are the so-called sunset bars, frequented by the nightlife people warming up for a new club night or people who want to have fun but don’t like mega-clubs.
The formula of these beach clubs is simple and has worked for over 30 years: extraordinary sunsets, cocktails made with the best ingredients, fun. The pioneer of this form of entertainment was the legendary Café del Mar15, opened in the 1980s, whose name is now inextricably linked to the chill-out music compilations produced annually since 1994.
Among the best sunset bars in Ibiza besides Café del Mar are Kumharas, Café Mambo, Savannah, Mint and Kanya.

In Ibiza you can also dance during the day and at sea: on the island of no-limit fun, the concept of clubbing goes beyond the usual discotheque and climbs aboard a boat.
Boat parties have become incredibly popular in recent years, so much so that today you cannot say you have experienced authentic Ibiza clubbing if you have not attended at least one boat party.
These fun cruises usually last between 2 and 4 hours and take place in the afternoon, but there are also some ‘sunset’ versions that are perfect for pre-clubbing.
During the boat party you can drink and dance on the boat together with a multitude of other young people looking for a good time like you. Some cruises also stop for a swim in the sea, perhaps diving off the diving board, or offer the possibility of water sports such as jet skiing.
Have you rented a car to explore the beautiful beaches of Ibiza but don’t feel like driving after a night of fun at one of the island’s clubs? Don’t worry! Climb aboard the Disco Bus and treat yourself to memorable nights out at Ibiza’s clubs!
The Disco Bus, in operation during the summer, is a night-time transport that connects the main tourist areas, San Antonio, Playa d’en Bossa and Eivissa, with the island’s most important discos from midnight to 6am. To reach Pacha, the bus stops about 10 metres beyond the club.
