How to get to Ibiza port from the airport

Getting to Ibiza Port from the airport is very simple, given the short distance of about 10 km. You have two main options:

• Taxi: in our opinion, taking a taxi is the most convenient and often the quickest solution. If you’re traveling in a group of five, it might even be the most economical option if you take a larger taxi. The average cost is around €18, traffic permitting, and the journey usually takes less than 15 minutes. The only potential issue, especially during peak season, might be queues.
• Bus: this is an excellent alternative, particularly favored by travelers who aren’t in a hurry and wish to see the center of Ibiza. You’ll need to take Bus Line 10. The ticket cost is €3.60 per person, but the journey duration is significantly longer than by taxi, potentially exceeding 40 minutes. You can purchase your ticket directly from the driver on the bus.
  From May to the end of October, during the peak tourist months, the 10E (express) line has been introduced. This direct service takes less than 20 minutes to reach the port, offering a great balance between cost and speed.
