Situated on the west coast, 16km (10 miles) from the airport and the capital Ibiza, San Antonio is the largest and liveliest tourist resort on the island. Known as "San An" to the thousands of British clubbers who descend here each summer, the resort's proper name is Sant Antoni de Portmany. Its long, wide bay is lined with bars, restaurants and apartment blocks catering mainly for young British tourists. There are a few small sandy beaches in the resort, and the spectacular beaches of Cala Conta, Cala Bassa and Cala Tarida are a short ferry ride away. July and August are the best months to visit for those looking for buzzing nightlife, while the months of May and June, and September and October are most popular with families, couples and older visitors.

San Antonio Insider Information

  • The real deal for drinking and clubbing. The “West End” is a mass of bars, discos and English breakfasts. You have probably got to go once with your friends. Don’t miss seeing the sunset over the islands from Café del Mar before heading back into the fray.
  • Just outside San Antonio in Sa Vorerea is Pike’s. It is a hotel that has seen some massive pop-style parties and George Michael has visited regularly. If you feel like having a quality meal visit the restaurant.
  • For a taste of fresh local food eat a huge seafood platter at Can Pujol, an overgrown beach shack.
