If you’re looking for some of the best beach clubs in the world, Ibiza is the place to be. With the glittering Mediterranean Sea, some of the world’s most delicious foods, and a famously excellent DJ scene, there’s a lot to love about Ibiza. And while there are some fantastic parties here, there are also plenty of options if you prefer more chilled-out vibes. So, from the infamously raucous beach clubs to the family-friendly spots, here are the best beach clubs in Ibiza.
1. Blue Marlin, Cala Jondal
Blue Marlin is one of Ibiza’s most glamorous and well-loved beach clubs. It’s a favourite among the island’s celebrity visitors – it even has its own private jetty for that extra touch of extravagance. But Blue Marlin isn’t all about the upmarket flashiness, it’s a genuinely beautiful spot overlooking the island of Formentera. The white sun loungers practically sparkle beside the Mediterranean sea for chilled-out days, sipping cocktails and dining on seafood, while the live DJ sets gets the crowd going once the sun sets. From May onwards you’ll find a themed event on every night, but Sundays are the big one here – they’re known as Showtime Sunday sessions.
2. O Beach, Playa d’en Bossa
A favourite amongst the younger crowd, O Beach has become a classic Ibiza spot since its opening in 2014. Synonymous with its iconic orange decor as much as it is for its owner, Wayne Linekar, O Beach might be the place you hate to love or love to hate. Either way, it’s undeniably one of the best beach clubs in Ibiza for its endless entertainment, raucous parties, and themed events. It’s undoubtedly the place to be if you’re looking for a party in Ibiza.
3. Amante, Sol d’en Serra
Famous for its hard-to-beat location, Amante is one of the most beautiful beach clubs in Ibiza. It’s tucked away into a gorgeous private cove, encircled by cliffs and palm trees. It’s a wonderful place to go from day to night. You could start the day with yoga on the beach before topping up your tan beside the Mediterranean sea, relaxing on a luxury daybed with a friendly waiter topping up your cava. By night, the chic spot is the perfect place for a romantic evening, accompanied by excellent cocktails, chilled-out house beats, and a Mediterranean dinner with a view. Amante is also loved for its relaxed movie nights on the beach – sink into the cosy bean bags and catch a movie beneath the stars.
4. Nikki Beach, Santa Eulalia
With locations in Dubai and Marbella, Nikki Beach is a key player when it comes to beach clubs. Its spot in Ibiza is particularly beautiful, nestled into a pine-shaded cove in the otherwise quiet Santa Eulalia. It’s full of expensive-looking people drinking expensive champagne, but it’s not all about the looks – Nikki Beach puts on excellent parties from April to October that are famous around the island.
5. Nassau Beach Club, Playa d’en Bossa
Nassau is arguably the most glamorous beach club in Ibiza, offering high-class Mediterranean-Asian cuisine, world-class service, and Balinese beds on the beach. While other beach clubs might get lively during the day, Nassau is a gorgeous place to chill, eat good food, sip on zingy cocktails, and enjoy the relaxed but vibrant atmosphere. Come dusk, you’ll find people chatting by the cocktail bar to the ambient house beats until closing time. Nassau is also popular for its monthly moonlit dinner events – tuck into their tip-top menu, watch the acrobatics at work, and soak in the cool atmosphere.
6. Cotton Beach Club, Cala Tarida
As the name suggests, Cotton Beach Club is a glittering scene of white Balinese beds, white mid-century tables, and well, white everything. It’s the picture of the boho-chic side of Ibiza, with beautiful Mediterranean vibes – from what’s on your plate to the chilled-out atmosphere. Lucky patrons can rent out gleaming daybeds and take in the views of the turquoise Cala Tarida, while enjoying first-class service from attentive waiters. When the sun starts to set, the place to be is the terrace – it has a separate menu from the downstairs restaurant with some of the best sushi on the island. Pair it perfectly with a sublime cocktail.
7. The Beach by Ushuaïa
Ushuaïa is a one-stop shop – a hotel, beach club, night club, and more. It has long been one of the most popular clubs in Ibiza and now its own beach club, aptly named the Beach, is following suit. Available to both hotel guests and members of the general public, the Beach by Ushuaïa is the perfect place to soothe your Ibiza hangover – sway in a hammock or relax on the sun loungers and make use of the excellent beach service. Catch the sunset from a sleek table at the restaurant while enjoying the menu of Mediterranean fare and sushi before partying the night away at one of Ushuaïa’s famous parties.
