Es Vedra Islet
Let’s start with probably the most famous one, the magnificent islet of Es Vedra, which is said to be the third most magnetic spot on earth. This mysterious rock gives birth to several legends, for the Carthaginians it was the birthplace of the goddess Tanit, than was said that Es Vedra is where the Greek hero, Ulysses, is lured from the deck of his ship and enchanted by the seductive song of the sea sirens. The most recent one regards priest, Father Don Francisco Palau. As a Carmelite monk, Francisco Palau, was confined on Ibiza during the 1850s. He took refuge in a cave on Es Vedra in order to meditate. According to his books, he had very powerful mystical visions here.

Festival Club
The abandoned space of the derelict Festival Club in the hills near San Agustín is a hotspot for urban explorers. Over time graffiti writers and nature have done their work to the crumbling amphitheater. Looking like a scene from a dystopian movie, the grounds are perfect for exploring Instagrammers. From the sprawling wall art to the spectacular views of the mountains, there’s plenty to frame and photograph.
