If you would like to try some typically authentic Ibizan food you should start with sofrit pages, a delicious thick and hearty stew comprised of many meats and vegetables. Although in the past this was only served during special festivals and occasions, it can now be found all over the island in restaurants serving traditional Balearic dishes. As Ibiza has many local variations of Spanish food, paella should be near the top of your sampling list. Usually made with fish on this island because of the many and varied local options, this is a fresh and delicious menu staple that deserves to be enjoyed in the sun with a glass of chilled white wine.
Another fish dish that tastes incredible is the bullit de peix. It is a stew which usually contains grouper, monkfish and rotja, topped off with garlic potatoes. If you can't wait to sample these Balearic delights on your holiday to Ibiza, make sure you book one of our low-cost holidays as soon as you can. We can't wait for you to find out how delicious the local food is on this wonderful island.
What to bring from Ibiza?
Sadly, all holidays must come to an end but buying souvenirs is one way to keep the memory alive. If you have been enjoying yourself at one of the iconic clubs on the island, you could take something back from one of their dedicated souvenir shops; Pacha has a particularly extensive one next to the pier in the town. If you would rather something a bit more indicative of the general feel of Ibiza, why not try some Sal de Ibiza rock salt from the Concept Store. Extracted from the lakes of the Evissa Nature Reserve just off the coast, you can't get anything more authentic to remind you of your holiday to Ibiza.
If you would like something a little different, try the streets that rise above Ibiza Town known as the Dalt Vila. Up here you will find many individual and independently-owned shops that have beautiful local items for sale, from wicker baskets to clothes and wine.
