Trains to Ibiza Airport
Once you step off the plane and land on Ibizan soil, you’ll understand why there aren’t any trains on the island. Away from the coast the landscape is rocky and steep, with winding roads hugging steep cliffs and a massive great volcano in the middle! Though mostly a party island Ibiza is also a beautiful place, large areas of which have been designated U.N. World Heritage sites. Train lines can’t be run through these areas and the terrain means that railways have never been developed on the island. Thankfully the island’s local bus services are fantastic; regular, efficient, friendly and very good value!
