San Antonio (San Antonio) - the second largest city of Ibiza and, according to British clubbers, the capital of club life in the world. For 2000 years, this resort was a small fishing village, but since the 50s of the last century it joined the number of resorts of the island, designed for mass tourism.
In the 80s the tourist industry began to take positions due to the "influx" scandalous British hooligan players, but since the mid-90s things have recovered, and San Antonio again received the status of the best British resort with excellent nightclubs and invited stars of world house life.

Entertainment and attractions of San Antonio
In May, June, September and October, it is usually quite calm here: mostly young lovers and not very couples are relaxing, watching the sunset in Café del Mar.
High season - July and August - a hot season for British "holidays", hot parties and a bustling nightlife. Recently, British tourists have been added to the Germans, Italians, Scandinavians and the Dutch.
San Antonio became famous for his "Sunset Strip" (in the west of the city in the area of Calo d'es Moro ) - the sunsets here are incredibly beautiful, so usually tourists take a cocktail and enjoy a beautiful spectacle.
In the central square grow blossoming exotic trees and "sing" fountains. From here it is best to watch salutes on St. Bartholomew's feast day on August 24.
Even in the heart of the city stands an ancient 14th century church, and nearby the legendary "Christopher Columbus Egg" representing the ship of this discoverer of new lands "Santa Maria". The egg itself is associated with the legend that Columbus managed to "put the egg" vertically (slightly breaking it at a larger base). The legend gave rise to a winged expression, meaning to overcome a problem that initially seems insoluble.
Passeig de ses Fonts alley is part of a coastal promenade along which palm and rubber trees grow, and in the evenings fountains are illuminated. On the opposite side of the alley are cafes and restaurants.
Most of the bars and small clubs (Viva, Hush, Koppas, Tropicana, Amsterdam Bar, Soul City, Funky Flares) are located on the western outskirts of San Antonio. The institutions work either from 14.00 to 04:00, or from 21.00 to 06:00.
