Ibiza in November and Winter: Weather and What's Open

Ibiza is open in November, at a slower pace than in summer. The big clubs held their closing parties in October, while Ibiza Town and the inland villages carry on through the winter with plenty of restaurants open, and the average maximum temperature in November is 19.6 °C at Ibiza airport, according to AEMET, Spain's state weather agency. Below are the figures for each winter month and the places that keep their doors open.

Is Ibiza warm in November?

Warm enough to eat outside at midday, and cool enough for a jumper after dark. AEMET's reference values for Ibiza airport, the 1981 to 2010 series published on its website, give these averages:

November: highs of 19.6 °C and lows of 12.3 °C, 157 hours of sunshine and 53 mm of rain spread over five or six rainy days.
December: highs of 16.7 °C and lows of 9.5 °C, with 151 hours of sunshine.
January: highs of 15.7 °C and lows of 8.1 °C, and the sunniest of the three months, with 162 hours.

The sea holds on to the summer's heat for longer than the air. Long-term averages published by Seatemperature.info and Whereandwhen put the water at about 19 °C in November, dropping to 16 or 17 °C in December. A swim in November is brisk but perfectly possible on a still, sunny day. By December most people prefer a pool that can be heated, a detail worth checking in the house description before you book.

Days are shorter, so plans move to the middle of the day and the evenings are spent indoors by the fire.

Is Ibiza open in November? What closes and what stays open

The island changes shape after the closing parties. In 2026 Ushuaïa held its last party of the season on Saturday 10 October, as announced on its own website and listed by Ibiza Spotlight, and the other big clubs closed around the same weekend. Many beach restaurants and hotels on the coast shut until spring. The Ibiza that stays belongs to the people who live here all year, and it is well worth knowing.

Ibiza Town has residents all year round, so it is where most restaurants and shops stay open, from the port to the streets around Passeig de Vara de Rey.
Restaurants open all year exist in every municipality. Diario de Ibiza keeps a guide to them by area, last updated in November 2025, and Welcome to Ibiza publishes a similar list; Es Pins, on the road from Ibiza to Portinatx, appears in both. Opening days shrink in winter, so it pays to call ahead or let us book the table.
Las Dalias, the market near Sant Carles, opens all year. According to its own calendar, in November and December it runs on Saturdays from 10:00 to 17:00 and on Sundays from 11:00 to 17:00.

Hotels and villas follow their own calendars. Some owners let their house in winter and others close it until spring, so for any stay between November and March we ask each owner directly before we offer a house.

What to do in Ibiza in November and winter

Winter brings out the side of the island that summer crowds tend to hide. These plans come round year after year:

Lunch in the inland villages. Santa Gertrudis and the other villages in the centre of the island are lived in all year, and a long lunch in one of them is a good way to spend a winter day. We went through the houses around Santa Gertrudis in our guide to villas in the centre of the island.
Dalt Vila in the sun. The walled old town above the port is at its best on a clear winter morning, when you can walk up to the cathedral and along the walls with plenty of room.
Walking the countryside. Cooler temperatures make the inland paths and the cliffs of the north and west pleasant for long walks, which in July would be hard work.
Village wine. Sant Mateu d'Albarca holds its Festa des Vi Pagès, where the valley's farm wine is poured in the village. It usually falls on a Saturday in December, and the date is confirmed each year a few weeks before.

Is Ibiza worth visiting in November?

For a group that wants the island to itself, yes. The roads are clear and lunch can stretch into the afternoon. The villa becomes the centre of the trip rather than a base for the beach. It suits couples, families who travel outside school holidays, friends celebrating a birthday, and anyone who works remotely and wants a few weeks of light.

In a winter house, the heating matters more than the size of the terrace, and a pool that can be heated makes the difference on sunny afternoons. Two examples from our collection:

Villa Ivy is a family house in gated grounds a few minutes from Cala Tarida, on the west coast, about 12.6 km from the airport in a straight line. Underfloor and central heating keep it comfortable well beyond summer, the saltwater pool can be heated (the house details note that this may carry an additional charge), and the roof terrace is where the house gathers for the sunset.
Can Danza is a finca near San José with its own spa: a hammam, a sauna and steam room, an indoor jacuzzi and a gym, along with underfloor heating and a fireplace. It sits about 5 km in a straight line from the airport and 6.3 km from Ibiza Town.

Why November is a good time to choose your summer 2027 villa

The quiet months are when next summer gets decided. Calendars for 2027 are open, and the weeks that go first are usually in July and August, when families and groups can travel together. Choosing now gives you the widest range of houses and time to compare them calmly, once your dates and group are clear.

If you are on the island this winter, it is also a good chance to see Ibiza as residents do and decide which area suits you, the green centre around Santa Gertrudis or the south-west near San José and its calas. Each suits a different kind of holiday, and neither is better than the other.

Next step

If a winter week tempts you, tell us which one through the contact page. Not every owner lets in winter, so we ask the ones who do whether the heating and the pool will be ready for your dates, and send you only the houses that are. To start with summer 2027 instead, browse our villas.
