Rainy Day Ibiza: 7 Things to Do in Ibiza When It Rains

Ibiza storms are very impressive, but can really mess with your plans. So here are a few ideas of things to do in Ibiza when it rains.

Wondering what to do on a rainy day in Ibiza? While the island is famous for its sunshine, spring showers and occasional Ibiza storms can happen, and they can be spectacular! The good news is that rain in Ibiza rarely lasts long, and there are still plenty of ways to enjoy your holiday.

If you’re looking for ideas for a rainy day in Ibiza, here are seven great ways to make the most of it.

The beauty of Ibiza’s weather is that storms tend to pass quickly. Thanks to the island’s small size, weather fronts often miss us altogether. Interestingly, San Antonio tends to see less rain than other parts of the island, making it a great base if you’re visiting in Spring or Autumn.

1. Spa Day – The Perfect Rainy Day Ibiza Activity

If you’re wondering what to do in Ibiza when it rains, a spa day is one of the best options. Relax, unwind, and return home feeling refreshed from your well-earned holiday.

There are many beautiful spa hotels in Ibiza offering day passes or promotions to non-guests.

Here are just 3 of our favourites.

Can Curreu Spa, San Carlos
Set in a charming agroturismo hotel, enjoy a thermal circuit including a sauna, hammam, heated indoor pool with jacuzzi, cold plunge pool, and sensation showers. Perfect for escaping a rainy Ibiza afternoon. 

Tip: Pair it with a taster menu to give your stomach something to really smile about.

Aguas de Ibiza, Santa Eulalia
Aguas de Ibiza offers a luxurious spa experience that can be enjoyed whatever the weather. If you are feeling really decadent. Treat yourself to one of their signature Clarins treatments.

Stic Urban Spa, San Antonio
Located in San Antonio, this modern spa features a jacuzzi, indoor pool, sauna, hammam, and aromatherapy showers, ideal for a relaxing rainy day in Ibiza, or whatever the weather. 

2. Taste Something Local Over Lunch – Watch the Rain in Ibiza While You Dine

Here are three of our favourite restaurants on the island that specialise in local Ibicencan cuisine. A long, relaxed lunch is one of the best ways to enjoy a rainy day in Ibiza. Watching a storm roll in over the sea while enjoying great food is a truly unique experience.

Tip: We strongly recommend booking ahead, as rainy weather significantly reduces the number of available tables across the island.

Es Boldadó, Cala d’Hort
Famous for its paella and fresh fish, Es Boldadó’s standout dishes include bullit de peix (traditional fish stew) and salmorra (salted fish). All of this is best enjoyed with incredible views of Es Vedrà—making it the perfect setting to experience Ibiza’s dramatic rainy weather.

S’Espartar, Carretera Sant Josep – Cala Tarida
Serving traditional Ibicencan cuisine in a beautiful countryside setting between San Josep and Cala Tarida, S’Espartar is a must-visit for authentic local flavours. Much loved by locals, it’s known not only for its food but also for its warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the tiramisu is exceptional.

Ses Casetes, San Mateo
A fantastic option for a delicious meal at a very reasonable price. This charming restaurant, located near the church in San Mateo, offers a truly authentic experience. The food is generous and full of flavour, and the cosy setting feels just like being at home, with a rotating exhibition of local artists displayed inside.

3. Explore the Caves of San Miguel

Looking for something unique to do in Ibiza when it rains? The Caves of San Miguel are a great all-weather activity.

Once used by smugglers, these caves are now a fascinating attraction featuring stalactites and stalagmites, with guided tours available in multiple languages. Lighting and sound effects make the experience even more memorable.

There are also plenty of nearby places to eat, making it an easy addition to your rainy day Ibiza itinerary.

TIP: There are many steps, so this may not be suitable for everyone.

4. Cap Blanc Aquarium – A Unique Rainy Day Experience

For something a little different, visit Cap Blanc Aquarium in San Antonio. It’s not the largest aquarium, but it’s a great activity to enjoy in Ibiza when it rains.

Set inside a natural cave, you’ll find octopus, rays, and a variety of Mediterranean marine life.

Historically, the cave was used by smugglers and later as a lobster storage space for fishermen. Today, it also helps rehabilitate injured sea turtles before release.

5. Shopping in Ibiza Town

If you’re spending a rainy day in Ibiza, take the opportunity to explore Ibiza Town.

Browse boutiques around the port and Dalt Vila, and when the rain returns, stop off at a cosy bar for a drink and a snack. Shopping in Ibiza is just as enjoyable in between showers.

6. Diving – Turn a Rainy Day into an Adventure

Rain doesn’t have to stop the fun. In fact, diving can be one of the most exciting things to do in Ibiza when it rains.

Diving centres usually operate in light rain or drizzle, although trips may be cancelled during heavy storms due to rough seas. While visibility can sometimes be reduced near the shore, it’s still a fantastic way to turn a rainy day in Ibiza into something unforgettable.

Our friends at Seahorse Diving will be able to assist you with our enquiry no matter the weather. 

7. Dinner – The Best Way to End a Rainy Day in Ibiza

After a day of exploring, there’s nothing better than a cosy dinner indoors while the rain falls outside.

Our sister restaurant Aragma offers the perfect setting, with a warm and inviting interior that makes it an ideal rainy day escape in Ibiza.

Serving homemade Greek and Mediterranean small plates, it’s a place to relax and enjoy great food at your own pace. With a knowledgeable team to guide you through the menu, you’ll experience the same high level of service you’ve come to expect from Tapas.
