The best September markets in Ibiza

The iconic northern hippy market is a microcosm of Ibiza society, where van-dwelling hippies selling beads and baubles rub shoulders with a glossy fashion crowd (Loewe Paula's Ibiza hosted their summer launch event here last year). With hundreds of stalls, along with live music, food stands and a buzzing terrace bar, Las Dalias is way more than just a shopping trip. Friday and Saturday nights the action moves inside to Akasha, the island's most northerly nightclub.

The original village market is back after a year-long hiatus, bringing sleepy San Juan thronging to life every Sunday morning. Expect to see crafts and local produce a plenty, along with art, jewellery and lots of alternative wellness products. Grab a CBD-infused kombucha, do some people watching and have an al-fresco boogie to the Bob Marley covers band.

An island stalwart, the vast Punta Arabí market near Es Cana was the hippy market of the 1960s and 70s and – despite busloads of tourists - retains its woo-woo, bohemian vibe. You’ll find lots of great vintage if you look hard enough, or else just stroll around beneath the shady pines and enjoy the atmosphere. A scheduled taxi boat from Ibiza Town makes for a super-fun way to arrive.

El rastrillo, the flea market, the hot, dusty and downright brilliant car boot sale that takes over San Jordi’s hippodrome each Saturday morning. This is the market for second-hand furniture, vintage art and quirky objects galore. There are a couple of stalls selling excellent Moroccan ceramics and rugs for a song, and the place is packed with island insiders and interior designers.

Ibiza’s best artisan market, with heritage handicrafts, ecological food and lots of historical interest. The pretty village of San Jose is lined with stalls, offering everything from organic herbs to handmade cheese and local esparto baskets. Many restaurants in the village also offer a special organic menu for lunch.
