EIVISSA in IBIZA .. most expensive city of the Balearic Islands

The porto of EIVISSA: pier for the big ferries to Valencia and Barcelona, ​​and for many millions expensive private yachts, and also the capital of IBIZA and the most expensive city on the Balearic Islands. Who wants to spend some days in EIVISSA must pay more than 50€ per night in the most hotels.

Along the harbor there are lots of restaurants and cafes. There they want to get the tourists into their restaurants to get their money by much too high prices. A small meal is mostly already about 20€ and the quality and quantity of the food is not well.

At the porto of Eivissa is also a McDonalds. There costs a Big Mac or Big King more than 6€. And these are the highest prices for fast food, I have seen in Europe. Going down a few hundred meters in the city of EIVISSA, you can find cheaper and usual restaurants and fast-food, such as Cheeseburgers for 5€ or Salat for 5€. There are also the usual Spanish supermarkets like EROSKI and MERCADONA with their normal prices, prices similar to those in the countries of the mainland in Europe.

In the evening until late at night, it is here in EIVISSA very busy. The tourists choose the expensive restaurants near the harbor. In a few cocktail bars you see as Transvestite dressed animateurs, who try to get the tourists into their restaurants.
