Ibiza Boosts Safety with Full Guardia Civil Force for the First Time in Years

Ibiza Boosts Safety with Full Guardia Civil Force for the First Time in Years

For the first time in recent memory, Ibiza will see a full complement of Guardia Civil officers dedicated to ensuring public safety across the island. This milestone coincides with the unveiling of 'Operation High Impact Zulu Bravo'. Uniquely among tourist destinations, Ibiza will benefit from this complete security presence for a full four and a half months, rather than just during the peak summer months of July and August.

A total of 100 new officers will join the force this year, with 70 arriving through transfers and securing permanent positions, while 30 are trainees who will serve until June. Key areas around the island, including Sant Antoni and Santa Eulària, will be covered by this bolstered security presence.

Despite this progress, the issue of accommodation remains a challenge for incoming officers, prompting temporary hotel arrangements and plans for permanent housing investments. As Ibiza continues to attract tourists from around the world, these developments are aimed at maintaining the secure and vibrant atmosphere clubbing enthusiasts love.

Farewell to an Ibiza Icon: Es Pi Ver Bids Adieu

Farewell to an Ibiza Icon: Es Pi Ver Bids Adieu

In the heart of Sant Miquel, a beloved chapter of local tradition has come to a close as Es Pi Ver, a charming and cherished café, shut its doors for the final time this Monday. Known for its warm ambiance and rich tapestry of memories woven over three decades, Es Pi Ver was more than just a café; it was a gathering point where locals and tourists alike shared stories over coffee or a frosty beer. Established in 1992 by Vicent Torres and Margarita Guasch, the establishment was named in homage to an old pine tree, Es Pi d’en Noguera, that once stood in the area. Over the years, it became a beloved symbol, drawing generations to its welcoming embrace. The closure evoked a poignant farewell, with patrons expressing gratitude towards Pepe Torres, the esteemed manager who helmed the café's recent era. Despite an upcoming transition to a new business with fresh ideas, the artful contributions of past owner Margarita Guasch were fondly remembered. Regulars like Toni and Bartolo reminisced about decades spent within its walls, with many recognising it as a vital piece of Sant Miquel’s spirit. Even as change is on the horizon, Es Pi Ver’s legacy will linger as a pivotal cultural cornerstone for the island's community and its visitors yearning for a taste of authentic Ibizan life.
