This is our 5th year of the Ladies backpacking trip, and we thought of a real corker this year: Ibiza!
We had a good early start and everything went to plan with leaving the car, taking the train to Gatwick airport, and had a pleasant flight.
We landed at 12 noon and took a taxi to Cala Conte on the west-northwest coast, then started our walk to Sant Antoni along the coastline. It was sooo beautiful, with perfect sunny breezy warm-but-not-hot weather and gorgeous water. Here is a map showing our full route for the next few days: red is for taxi or bus, blue is our walking route.
We met a Lithuanian-Irish girl called Inga and enjoyed a nice cocktail at the beach with her.
We had booked to stay in an apartment but ended up getting upgraded into a half-board hotel nearby on a sister property
Florencio, and we were SO stoked about this! And the place had a swimming pool that we were able to jump into before they closed it for the night. And we got free dinner! After dinner we ventured out for a wander through town. We had been thinking about going to Cafe del Mar since it is so famous, but we when we got there we found it was pretty quiet although the place next door, Cafe Mambo, was having their season opening party!
It was pretty fun watching people and enjoying the scene, and eventually we got back to the room and called it a night!
