Ibiza is one of the smaller Balearic Islands, situated in the western Mediterranean Sea and governed by Spain. Ibiza’s landscape appears, even today, beautiful and unspoilt. On many of the exposed coastal projections are peculiar shaped towers that served as watchtowers and defence towers against pirates. These were essential because for centuries the Pitiusas were a popular target for pirates from all nations. The economy now is more than 95% dependent on tourism.

Ibiza has a relatively mild climate throughout the year. During the year Ibiza enjoys an average of 300 days of sunshine with a daily mean of five hours in winter and more than ten hours a day in summer. Humidity is stable, remaining about 70 per cent throughout the year.
