Great Daytrips From Ibiza – Spain – Part 1

Most visitors to Ibiza will find themselves shuttling between Ibiza Town, which is five miles from the airport, and San Antonio, about double the distance away on the opposite, western coast. These two main towns are where almost all of Ibiza’s restaurants, bars and clubs are located, along with other attractions. Like many things on the island, taxis are exceedingly expensive so it pays to hire a car if you plan to be moving about a lot.

A vehicle provides the best opportunity to visit other less-travelled areas of this beautiful island, beyond the nightclubs and the late-night bars. Areas like Sant Joan de Labritjain in the north remain largely untouched by tourism development despite being extremely popular when the island first opened up in the 1960s.

The beaches here sport crystal clear waters but are not subjected to the same crowds that plague the likes of San Antonio during the height of summer, when much of London and the rest of England transports itself to this popular Balearic island. The elevation here is also higher than in many other parts of Ibiza so there are great views out across the Mediterranean.

For a look at the exclusive side of life on Ibiza head to the southern region of Santa Eulària del Riu. This is where many of the large private villas can be found in towns like San Carlos and Port des Torrent, and the beaches here are among some of the best on the entire island. While this is an area of riches, it is also home to a number of popular markets specialising in counter-culture in the likes of Las Dalias and Punta Arabi.

For the best scenery on the island, take a drive to the southern region at Sant Josep de sa Talaia. The area, about six miles by road from San Antonio and close to 10 miles from Ibiza Town, features the island’s highest mountain at nearly 500 meters above sea level. On a clear day, it is possible to see most of the island from here. This area also features the longest stretch of coastline of any of the regions of Ibiza and many areas are protected.

Outdoor activities on offer here include horseback-riding, hiking, cycling and much more besides. The area is home to a cave which tunnels 25 meters into Cova Santa and there are also some historic Punic-Roman ruins in two towns just a short drive away which date back more than 2,000 years.

On the eastern side of the island, Santa Eularía des Río is a town with numerous attractions and makes for an easy daytrip from Ibiza Town. Puig D’Missa is the historical highlight here, a 15th century fort that sits on top of a hill overlooking the town and bay below with its attractive little marina. This is also where you’ll find the fascinating Living Museum which takes a look back at life on this simple little Spanish island before super clubs like Pacha and Space attracted the masses every summer. The town is home to a burgeoning fiesta scene, the best taking place during Easter when the town explodes in a sea of colour and all-night partying without the ubiquitous dance music.

For some, coming to Ibiza without dedicating 100 per cent of a holiday to the night clubbing scene is sacrilege, but those that want a bit of variety and a chance to realise they’ve arrived in a different and very beautiful part of the world will want to explore the island by car.

Making the effort to do so is well worth it and will no doubt make a night at a club that little bit more special when you finally make it back to San Antonio after a day away from the crowds.

Singapore Nightlife Spots You Must Visit

Singapore has really lit up of late and the nights in the city and entertainment areas have never been quiet. There is never a dull moment with beautifully dressed people, disco lights, exotic drinks and even more wonderful events that have kept Singaporeans and visitors busy all the way till six in the morning. Night life in Singapore has transformed since the portrait of stars transposed into its map and now its a bright shining sun – one that only reveals itself at night.

Singapore has also opened its doors to more and more foreigners and the overall tastes of the clubber has been refined of late. No more is it a question of just a bar, some music and some lights, but clubbing is now about a brand, an experience, something different and some of these bars and clubs have really stood out. Places like Clarke Quay is really one huge example of the efforts of the nightlife industry sculpting a name for itself with a landmark to dazzle crowds. Places like IndoChine, with its mystical and alluring theme sit proudly as one of the places that promises an experience like no other. If you are looking for shows to inspire your entertainment, then look out for clubs like Belini Grand or Azzuca, where acts from Europe and Spain will make you want to move with sultry and exciting dances and singing that will amaze you.

Still in Clarke Quay, there are places that can boast a concert experience with some of the best local and international acts from the region and the world doing a whole medley of genres, covers and even some originals. Pump Room, a microbrewery that also has one of the best bands in Singapore, Jive Talking, is one such place. Arena, Gotham Penthouse and Le Noir are also just some examples of the nightlife spots you can visit for a concerto experience.

If your palette is yearning for the latest and most creative cocktails in a swanky environment with plush sounds and even plusher seats then cocktail bars and clubs like the Loof, Alley Bar, Geek Terminal and even Harry’s Bar will definitely impress with their wide selection of cocktails that will have been inspired with anything from cakes, desserts to even movie themes. Microbreweries are also a feature in Singapore with places like Brewerks, Archipelago, Pump Room just some of the names in the vat of ever expanding breweries in Singapore, serving up a foam filled, original and creative concoction in a pint glass.

Dont forget St James Powerhouse, a massive triplex and more – a giant PowerStation converted into a massive club that houses over six different clubs – each with their own theme, music and atmosphere. There is no limit to what you can do at night, when the sun goes down the horizon doesn’t turn dark – it is lit up with hundreds of potential places to get your groove on, sip on a tiramisu martini or just sit back, relax and enjoy a performance like no other.

Reflections: Why travel

Why travel? One reason, one country

While doing a J1 in the states, spending two weeks working on that tan and intoxicating yourself to oblivion in Ibiza or seeing Europe via the rails, there is one destination with elements of all three, its own uniqueness and much, MUCH more that will blow you away.Thailand.

Forget that stubborn friend of yours who will say “no it’s too far away for a holiday”, “there’s too much too organize”, “it’s too dodgy”, “the flights are too expensive”. With return flights as low as 600+ (www.studentflights.co.uk), the unbelievable cheap expense of living, and the variety of once in a lifetime experiences and places to see, a month in Thailand has something for everyone and more at the cost of an uneventful two week sun holiday in Spain.

Bangkok.

Get ready for the Bangkok culture shock. The moment you step out of the Airport you will be surrounded like a celebrity by eager Thai drivers offering you bus, car and even limousine transport to your chosen Hotel. The best place for your short stay in Bangkok is The Khaosan Palace located on the Khoasan Road. With air conditioned twin rooms at 13 per night, The Khaosan Palace offers the basic essentials and comforts of a hotel room with a swimming pool on the roof and a lengthy view of Bangkok. By day, the Khoasan Road is filled with hundreds of stalls, restaurants and street vendors. By night it’s packed with tourists taking advantage of the cheap drink and numerous pubs and clubs.

Bangkok’s nightlife goes way beyond its publicised sleazy sex image. There is a wide range of entertainment venues, pubs, clubs, bars, cafes and massive high tech disco’s. Phuture, Energy Zone and Taurus offer the ultimate clubbing experience that makes clubs elsewhere seem like Bingo nights in the local. Admission to these clubs ranges from 5 to 10. However do watch out on your walk home for the lady boys prowling the streets, women beware also they have no preference.

The Chatuchak weekend market is a shoppers heaven offering a whopping 8672 stalls selling musical instruments, antiques, crafts, clothing, jewellery and any other type of item known to man at extremely cheap prices. Speaking to an English couple on my travels in Thailand last January they commented -”we were meant to spend only three weeks here before our year in Australia, but we have spent just over two months now traveling around, we love it here, how can you leave a country as

Skiing Holidays: Your Dreams and Hopes for the Perfect Slopes

For many people, ski holidays have been a regular holiday activity and for skiers, there aren’t many places they’d rather be than the Alps. Italy is now proving that it is a destination that has great value for money and with skiing routes ranging from the French border to the amazing Dolomites in the east; it is no wonder why people are flocking to Southern Europe to test out the slopes.

In an era where cheap package holidays in the sun have outsold any other kind of holidays, it would have been easy for the ski operators to reduce the level of customer service but it seems that this competition has just urged them on and the offerings are better than ever. The great nightlife and culture of Italy offers the perfect ending to day of skiing where you can dine at many of the first-class restaurants that Italy has to offer.

Many people look for cheap holidays when deciding where to go but the truth is that skiing holidays are not as expensive as some people think. There are some great deals out there at the moment and if you have never been skiing before why not have a different holiday experience and book your holiday today.

All of the mountains and destinations can be reached within a couple of hours of the nearest airport which gives you more time on the slopes. The easiest way to find the best package for you is to shop online where you can compare various deals at the click of a button.

City of the First Sea World

San Diego is a coastal Southern California city located in the south western corner of the continental United States. It lies just north of the Mexican border. The first European to visit the region was Portuguese explorer Juan Rodrigues Cabrillo sailing under the Spanish Flag, who sailed his flagship, the San Salvador, from Navidad, New Spain.

San Diego has a fairly large gay population and gay culture. The annual Gay Pride Parade usually draws crowds in excess of 100,000 people.

The Gas lamp Quarter in downtown San Diego is where the city’s nightlife is. Some would say that before the Gas lamp hit its stride in the mid-1990s, San Diego really did not have much of a night life. From martinis at Martini Ranch, to dancing at Tsunami Beach Club, nightlife in the Gas lamp Quarter is about as lively as it gets.

The San Diego nightlife scene, including lounges and bars, has never been as vibrant as it is today. The clubs now bring some of the worlds best DJs, boast fabulous decor, and cater to a growing range of beautiful patrons. Aside from the large night clubs in the city, bars are not to be overlooked for affordable, fun nightlife in San Diego. Those seeking to avoid the crowds of the bars, as well as the sometimes over whelming energy of the nightclubs, can make any night magic by grabbing a table for some VIP bottle service at one of the many fine lounges.

The Old Town, now a state-designated historic park showing the citys Mexican heritage. Old adobe houses surround court yards overflowing with bougainvilleas, weathered fountains, and crowds dressed in striking colours. There are over thirty restaurants to choose from, along with a number of rancho-themed hotels, specialty shops, and art galleries. For a thrilling twist, visit some of the communitys famous haunted places, such as the Whaley House and the Villa Montezuma.

The area also offers countless cultural attractions, from trolley tours to historical sites, like the Victorian-age settlement Heritage Park. Several times a year, the park explodes in music to celebrate cultural festivals and holidays, drawing revellers from all over.

The San Diego Sea World was the first Sea World in the world. You can see first hand various types of animals such as orca whales, beluga whales, a pilot whale, polar bears, dolphins, penguins, manatees, and much more. When it comes to the rides they are short and slightly disappointing.
