Welcome! In this article we will give you an in depth view into the 15 best sunset bar in Ibiza.
It’s no secret that Ibiza is one of the best places in the world to watch the sunset.
That’s why many cafes, bars and restaurants offer a privileged view of the Mediterranean Sea.
Because the sunsets on the white isle are absolutely breathtaking!
All of our top 15 are unique bars/restaurants from various locations around the island.
Many of these cafes and bars are located around the San Antonio Bay area.
There are some from the west coast of the island, and even one from the pristine northern coastline.
These specific areas have the best views of the sunset during the summer months.
During the long summer days in June and July the sky turns into a rainbow of colours as late as 9:30pm (21:30).
The clear waters of the sea reflect the shining light of the sun all day long, up until a few minutes before sunset.
