For many, Ibiza is the definitive symbol of summer hedonism. But in winter, the island is far from going into hibernation....

Many think Ibiza opens its doors in May, welcomes the party-loving masses for five months, and then cheerfully waves goodbye. But its actually much more than just a seasonal destination.

In winter, Ibiza transforms into an altogether different paradise one where the pace of life slows and the streets empty, but one thats still alive with activity.

Only a two-and-a-half-hour flight from the UK, youre practically a hop, skip and a jump away, so if youre looking to banish the winter blues, here are four reasons why you shouldnt delay

1. Hurrah, for the sun is still shining.

You remember the sun! That massive, yellow, hot thing in the sky that you probably last saw a few months ago? Well its still burning brightly in Ibiza. Its now the end of October and the average temperature is 23 degrees. And it will stay warm enough for beach trips and sunbathing until December. Yes, you read that right. Which leads us nicely on to our next point.

2. There are tons of amazing beaches, with no one on them!

Measuring just 220 square miles, Ibiza is a mere speck in a vast Mediterranean expanse, but its coastline is peppered with breathtakingly beautiful beaches more than 50 of them. And this is the perfect time of year to check them out because the crowds have dispersed and the heat isnt too oppressive, so you can go for a stroll and marvel at the cerulean waters, or find a secluded spot to catch one of those world famous sunsets.

3. The best restaurants stay open all year round.

There are a whole heap of top-notch restaurants open to cater for voracious appetites. Dine with a sea view at Cotton Beach Club, eat the best pizza in town at Los Pasajeros in Marina Botafoch, find a cosy nook at Clandestino in Playa denBossa, or go for a hearty roast dinner at Cook Ibizas Sunday Service. Come February, San Antonios pintxos festival kicks into action, so every Thursday for five weeks local bars and restaurants offer a tapas (mini plate of food) and drink for just 2. The best part? You can hop on a train and be taken to each and every one of them. All aboard!
