Ibiza's Laughing Gas Crackdown: Calls for Tighter Regulations in Sant Antoni

A wave of concern has swept through Sant Antoni, calling for stronger police coordination to tackle the recreational use of nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas. Local residents, families, and tourism professionals have voiced their worries to Raquel Guasch Ferrer, the regional director for the islands, about the ongoing impact of this substance on community life and the island's image. The call for action stresses the importance of prevention and stricter measures, highlighting the need for a cohesive response from national and local authorities. With recent changes in Balearic regulations already tightening controls on the sale and advertising of nitrous oxide, the community's unified stance emphasizes that the issue transcends beyond mere business interests, affecting families, workers, and tourists alike. The focus remains on safeguarding minors and ensuring a wholesome environment for both locals and visitors amid Ibiza's vibrant attractions.

Ibiza Launches Major Clean-Up of Sa Penya Cliffs

This week, the scenic cliffs of Sa Penya in Ibiza are undergoing a significant clean-up operation. Local authorities embarked on this challenging task to clear accumulated waste from this hard-to-reach area, with efforts beginning bright and early. The clean-up is expected to take around two days, though it could extend depending on the amount of rubbish discovered. Previous similar efforts saw the removal of about 30 tonnes of waste, so expectations are set for a hefty haul this time as well. Once extracted, the waste will be ferried away by sea from the bay. The council warns that uncontrolled dumping can lead to fines as steep as €30,000, as they continue efforts to maintain and rehabilitate sensitive areas on the island.

Ibiza Remembers 'Tanit': Celebrated Hippie and Icon of the Island Passes Away

The Ibiza community is mourning the loss of Ferdinand Guy Jocelyn, affectionately called 'Tanit' by those who knew him between the wild decades of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Known for his backward beach strolls and playing paddleball at Las Salinas, Tanit was a staple in the social fabric of Ibiza. Carlos Martorell, a celebrated publicist who organized opening nights for iconic venues like Amnesia and KU (now Unvrs), fondly recalls Tanit as an unforgettable figure on the dance floors. Interestingly, Tanit named himself after the Carthaginian goddess and passed away on World Goddess Day. His vibrant hippie persona, adorned with dreadlocks and feathers, made him a beloved character. Despite a world that moved past the 'sex, drugs, and rock & roll' era, Tanit remained true to the spirit of an era gone by. Remembered for his emotional moment receiving the Llave de Ibiza, his legacy endures as a part of the island's colourful tapestry. Farewell, Tanit.
