Ibiza

Ibiza is far more than a party island. In this new volume, bestselling photographer Michael Poliza turns his lens on the Balearic icon, from dramatic cliffs, pine forests, and hidden coves to its layered cultural history and world-famous nightlife. Spectacular aerials and intimate close-ups are paired with first-hand voices from locals, long-time residents, insiders, and island lovers. Author Maya Boyd further enriches the book with intimate portraits of influential people who call Ibiza home, adding depth and personal perspective. Together, they reveal the real Ibiza: a place where wild nature, boho spirit, and high-end hedonism collide – and invite readers to experience the island in a completely new way.
