A taxi is the most straightforward option and you'll find the rank right outside the terminal. Fares are charged per vehicle (up to 4 passengers), not per person, with a small airport supplement and a higher night-time rate. Approximate daytime fares: around €15–20 to Ibiza Town or Playa d'en Bossa, €30–35 to Santa Eulària and €25–30 to San Antonio. For groups it's great value; in the early hours and during August, expect a queue at the rank.

The airport bus is the cheapest way to go: the route connects to Ibiza Town and, in season, to San Antonio and Playa d'en Bossa for just a few euros, though it makes stops and offers less scheduling flexibility. A pre-booked private transfer means a driver waiting with your name on a sign and a fixed price — ideal if you're arriving late at night or with a lot of bags. A shared shuttle sits in between: cheaper than a private transfer, but with stops along the way.
Car hire and how to choose the right option
If you're planning to explore the island, picking up a hire car at the airport itself is the most practical choice — just book well in advance, as availability dries up fast in summer and prices climb. Here's a quick guide to choosing: if you're in a group or arriving in the middle of the night, go for a taxi or private transfer; if you're travelling on a tight budget with minimal luggage, take the bus; and if you want total freedom to roam throughout your stay, grab a car from the moment you land. It's also worth having some cash on you just in case.
