Spring is in the air, it’s in our steps and it has hit the island in a big way – and we’re not just talking about flora and fauna. While the island itself is looking resplendent in full bloom, another transformation of sorts has been taking place right here at White. We’ve had the equivalent of a seasonal makeover, adding new features, photos, blogs and more in order to bring you the very best Ibiza has to offer in 2009.
It’s not just us – our favourite restaurants, beach bars and stores are all adding a fresh lick of paint and preparing to re-open, making now the perfect time to take advantage of our fabulous pre-season hotel offers (and the glorious sunshine!). And speaking of the weather, sunny spring weddings in Ibiza are proving to be as popular as ever for 2009 – need some inspiration for yours? That’s what our all-new Weddings & Events section is here for… |

San Jose Flower Power Festival
These days Ibiza may be famous for hedonistic clubbing, beautiful beaches plus its thriving gastronomic scene and languid lifestyle, but let’s not forget it was originally the clued-up hippies of the ‘60s that led us down the (very floral) garden path that got us to where we are today.
So it seems only fitting that as part of the spring celebrations in San Jose this week, a tribute to our free-loving forefathers (and mothers!) was in order, in the form of the much-hyped, much-loved and hotly anticipated annual Flower Power Festival, giving island residents get the chance to frock up and say it with flowers… in their hair anyway!

Aparagus – The Wild Bunch in Ibiza
Ibiza rocks. And I don’t mean a bunch of indie bands rocking out in San An - I mean Ibiza ROCKS! Where else can you walk out your front door and pick your supper from a hedgerow? Asparagus is one of the many wild harvests here on the island and now is the time to go out and get some. It is everywhere.
Spotting it at first seems slow but the more you pick it, the easier it is to see. It’s a bit like picking magic mushrooms – at first they seem to be hiding but by the end they are waving at you. And winking…
