You know that moment when you finally settle into your spot on the beach, your little one is happily digging moats for their sandcastle masterpiece… and then a cloud of cigarette smoke drifts over from a nearby group? Ugh, no thanks. Or worse — the baby digs up a soggy cigarette butt buried in the sand and think it's eatable. Enough to ruin the magic, right?
Every May, the fortified walls of Dalt Vila, the historic heart of Ibiza Town, comes alive. The Eivissa Medieval Fair 2025 promises four unforgettable days where history and fantasy blend under the Mediterranean sun.
Every May, the kids are all excited and gallop around the house with their foam swords or trusty stick horses 🐴⚔️, already in full knight mode before we've even left the driveway. Then we head straight up to Dalt Vila for what is — hands down — one of the most family friendly annual island events: the Eivissa Medieval Fair. Yes, it’s that time again, when Ibiza’s old town transforms into a magical swirl of knights, dragons 🐉, jesters, and falcons. And trust me, this is not just some touristy sideshow with a plastic sword or two. It’s four days of full-on, time-traveling, giggle-inducing, snack-sampling, puppet-watching mayhem — and you'll love every second of it.
Every year, without fail, we hear the same thing: “Wait, which village is celebrating what now?” 😅 You’ve barely caught your breath from the Santa Eularia 'Marzo' madness and – boom – suddenly it’s Fiestas de Mayo time in Santa Eulalia! But not just any fiesta… this one is THE big one. Like, save-the-date, don’t-miss-it, throw-on-your-best-flower-crown kind of big.

The weather is warming up, the first sandals are making their yearly debut, and the kids are already asking when they can swim again... Yep, it's official: Ibiza is waking up from its winter nap! ☀️
Let me tell you about Parco Ibiza, one of my favorite spots on the island. Now, as Ibiza residents, we all know we’re not out here living the tourist dream—because, let’s face it, unless you’re an early pensioner, most of us still work hard for our money...
Get ready, Ibiza Families! This Saturday, April 12, the island will be buzzing with energy as the Santa Eulària Ibiza Marathon takes over our roads, towns, and hearts! Whether you’ve got a runner in the family, a little one who loves to cheer, or you’re just up for some fresh air and good vibes — this event is one of those feel-good island moments you don’t want to miss.
A Day at the Farm
Hey there, fellow Ibiza moms and dads! 🌞 We've discovered some fantastic, free family activities that have brought endless joy to our little ones—and to us grown-ups too! Here's a bubbly roundup of our top picks:
One of the many reasons we adore living on Ibiza is that, even in the quieter months, there's always something vibrant happening around the island. Small village festivals pop up like delightful surprises, reminding us how joyful and lively island life is all year round! Sant Josep de sa Talaia is now gearing up for its annual festivities in honor of Saint Joseph, a wonderful reason to gather, laugh, and celebrate community spirit together. From octopus frying competitions to hippie-themed parties—there's something delightful for everyone, especially if you love quirky events and family fun (we certainly do!). So, let’s dive into all the exciting activities lined up:
Alright Ibiza parent, in all fairness many of us try to be the ‘no treats today’ type of parent. As parents we actually waited with sugar until our little one was 3 years old. But then our little munchkins give us that puppy-eyed look, and before we know it, we’re handing over a chocolate croissant the size of their head. So, let’s just embrace it: handing out treats is fun, and there are plenty of amazing places on Ibiza where your kiddo can get something tasty without turning into a human bouncy ball. Bonus? You might get to sip calmly on some quality coffee while they indulge.
As a parent living on this vibrant island, I’m always on the lookout for unique experiences that keep my kid feeling this fantastic luxury of being close to nature. If you feel like it's about time to keep yours further away from screens and near to ground earth: Enter *Child of the Wild Ibiza*! This magical initiative, led by the passionate and inspiring Anne Marie, is everything I didn’t know my family needed. It’s where children step out of the everyday and into a world brimming with creativity, exploration, and connection to the wild side of Ibiza.

Every year, winter on Ibiza feels like a little surprise box. Some restaurants stay open, others head off on their winter holidays—but don’t worry! I keep rounding up some short lists of fantastic spots where the whole family can enjoy food, fun, and enjoy some island sunshine. Just a heads up—before you head out, it’s always good to give them a quick call, as some owners like to take surprise vacations during the quieter months.
We continue with the always growing list of which family friendly restaurants stay open and which take a break? I’ve put together a list of awesome spots where you can still grab a bite, relax, and have a blast with the whole crew. Just a quick tip: always call ahead because sometimes the owners surprise us with spontaneous winter getaways! 😎
