Ibiza defies easy categorization. To some it's hedonism headquarters, the island where the world's DJs perform summer residencies and clubs charge more for water than restaurants charge for wine. To others it's a bohemian retreat, successor to the artists and dropouts who discovered it in the 1960s before the party industry arrived. To UNESCO, it's a protected biosphere, its Posidonia seagrass meadows maintaining the impossibly clear waters that make the beaches famous. All of these Ibizas are real, coexisting on an island small enough to cross in an hour but varied enough to support completely separate worlds. The official name is Eivissa - Catalan for a place the Phoenicians knew millennia before the first club opened.

Long before the clubs, Ibiza attracted a different crowd. In the 1960s and 70s, artists, writers, and hippies discovered an island where life was cheap, beautiful, and free from the constraints of mainland Europe.
