Forget DJs and dance-floors, if you want to unwind Ibiza style, head for Anita’s Bar, which juts unapologetically into the main road through Sant Carles as if to say to passing traffic: “Slow down – take it easy.” Arrive early to nab a table on the narrow terrace facing the island’s most beautiful church and watch the sun sink low over the tangled vineyards and pine-clad hills of the surrounding countryside.
The star drink here is Anita’s legendary homemade hierbas, the typical fennel-scented liqueur of the island. Make like a local and sip it over ice while you gossip and watch the stars emerge.
