Ibiza, also called Eivissa in the Catalan language, lies in the western Mediterranean, off the northeast coast of Spain. It's the third largest and the farthest west of the Balearic Islands, and is located 80 kilometres south-west of Majorca. It's part of the autonomous community that makes up the four islands, which shows a distinct Spanish influence. Valencia is five hours away by ferry, and it's about nine hours from Barcelona. You can also travel by ferry to Majorca and Menorca, allowing about two hours for each island hop.
