Buying cannabis in Ibiza’s social clubs

In fact, the law in Ibiza is such that it is legally tolerated to consume cannabis within certain limits. For this purpose, there are so-called social clubs. Small cafés, if you will, where you can buy cannabis.

We were in Ibiza for you and this is our little guide for you incl. the best social club in Ibiza!

Welcome to Ibiza: Airport and Island

When you arrive at Ibiza airport, you land in Eivissa. Eivissa is the largest city on the island, next to Santa Eulalia. Both cities are only 20 minutes away from each other. In general, you can get around Ibiza quickly.

Ibiza airport and city:

Eivissa and downtown:

Beach, sun, good weather, party and beach clubs

Most people come for the beach, sun, good weather, parties and beach clubs. All this you can experience in Ibiza, from spring through summer and into autumn. Only. Winter is not a season here (so very, very few tourists). Nevertheless, it is still warm on average 15 degrees. Ibiza itself consists of these two large cities, plus Sant Antoni. Sant Antoni, however, is already a little smaller and also a little more designed for cheap tourism.

In the big cities you can really find everything you need. Beach promenades with small cafes, delicious paella and especially many clubs. You will love the island! A small tropical paradise in the Mediterranean.

Largest cities:

1. Eivissa (airport, southeast of the island)
2. Santa Eulalia (Southeast)
3. Sant Antoni (Southwest)

Laws in Ibiza: Relaxing into the sunset

In fact, the island was once especially popular with hippies and dropouts. This gives it until today this special charm. In addition, of course, the impressive nature of rugged rocks. Even more spectacular than the island world of Mallorca. Maybe that’s why the laws are a bit more relaxed than in the rest of Spain.

Now for the important questions:

Social Clubs Ibiaz: The most frequently asked 7 questions

The 7 most frequently asked questions at a glance:

1. Where can you find social clubs in Ibiza?
2. What does a social club look like from the inside?

4. How do you get into a social club?
5. How much cannabis can you buy?

Where can you find social clubs in Ibiza?

You can find social clubs in the big cities. But there are not many, only a small handful. These social clubs also don’t have a typical entrance in the shopping street, they are relatively hidden and quietly located. After all, this is not about drug tourism, but about a relatively regulated environment in which cannabis is dispensed.

What does a social club look like from the inside?

You can think of social clubs as small cafes. Only without the typical walk-in crowd and the big window facade, like at Starbucks.

You can drink coffee, eat delicious pastries from locals, you get information about cannabis, but also alternatives like CBD. You have the possibility to sit down with friends, music is playing in the background. So the name “Social” is also a bit of a program! Local residents meet here all the time, after all. Like in a small coffee shop around the corner.

So it’s not just about buying cannabis, social clubs are so much more.

By the way, you can find such social clubs not only in Ibiza, also in Barcelona there is this legal relaxation.

What is the best social club in Ibiza?

We have visited all the social clubs in Ibiza for you and according to our experience, there is only one recommendation for the best social club in Ibiza:

GREENtime Ibiza in Eivissa

Below the logo is the counter with the different varieties and products (more on that later).

A small exclusive view (lounge area with café) into the GREENtime Ibiza.

The adresses of the social club are kept relatively anonymous. This is also to avoid ongoing audience, so that the neighbors are not disturbed. This is also part of the concept of the Social Club here in Ibiza. In addition, the founder and owner is really charming. She herself is from South America and has started her own business with this social club. The passion and passion leads one and you can see it in the relatively high-quality equipment.

During the conversation she also told me about the plans she has for the future, I just say yacht, champagne and cannabis! In this social club you should stop by.

Now, of course, the big question arises:

How do you get into a social club?

If you want to become a member of a social club, ideally you come recommended by a friend.

• Recommendation of a member (ideal case)

How much cannabis can you buy?

Purely from the philosophy, it is not about buying and selling cannabis, but about the common, responsible consumption. So on site there are commercial quantities, about 20 grams of each variety and usually five to ten varieties. Usually there is also hashish and small snacks made of cannabis, e.g. cakes or cookies. Perfect with a cappuccino!

• 5-10 varieties
• 20-50 gram each in stock
• Cannabis and hashish
• CBD products
• Snacks and cafe

So you can decide for yourself if you want just half a gram, a gram, 5, 10 grams or even 20 grams of cannabis.

Is it okay to smoke weed outside of the social club?

Smoking cannabis is not allowed in principle, but it is tolerated. So if you take cannabis with you after your social club visit, it is not a problem.

How much does marijuana cost at the social club?

Prices are not fixed, accordingly, each takes its own prices program and, of course, per variety. As a rule, you pay between 11 and 13 euros for a gram of cannabis. For this you have the great advantage that you can consume here relatively undisturbed, so you do not have to worry as in many countries, for example in Germany, France or even a large part of the USA.

• Price: ~ 11 to 13 Euro / gram

So the vacation in Ibiza can begin!

Camping adventures planned: from the idea to the roof tent

The video is about a family called Gittel, consisting of Tino, Yvonne and their daughter Samiya, who are preparing for a camping adventure. Tino has the idea of getting his family excited about camping, although Yvonne has always preferred hotel vacations. In the video you can see their thoughts on how to choose the roof tent from iKamper and plan their trip, including the choice of campsite.

iKamper is a popular brand for roof tents. You can read more about it here:

The fascination of camping adventures: costs, equipment & family

The camping trend is enjoying great popularity, and many people cherish the desire for unrestricted freedom. They long for a vacation in the great outdoors that allows them to sleep in the most beautiful places and move on flexibly, depending on their mood. Whether you opt for a caravan, motorhome or tent depends on your personal preferences. According to a study by the ADAC, there are already 15 million enthusiastic campers in Germany. But how do you find your way around this wide range?

Between skepticism & anticipation: camping on vacation

Tino, Yvonne and Samiya Gittel live in North Rhine-Westphalia. Tino has come up with something special for his next vacation: he wants to get his family interested in camping. He thinks camping is very exciting, while his wife Ivonne is skeptical at first. She is worried that she will have to restrict herself too much in terms of space and comfort. However, their nine-year-old daughter is also enthusiastic about the idea. She has already been on a camping vacation with her aunt and had a lot of fun. So her mother is going to try it out for her sake.

This family tests camping: Ivonne, Tino and daughter Samiya.

Camping solution: roof tent, tent trailer & caravan

Sure, this year the decision has been made to go camping. However, there are different types of camping. Should it be a caravan or motorhome, or would you prefer a tent or caravan? The variety of options is considerable. A motorhome or caravan undoubtedly offers a certain level of luxury. But Tino has heard from relatives and friends who are faced with the problem of having to put their vehicle somewhere at the end of the season year after year.

A folding caravan or tent trailer, which is more compact than a caravan, is ruled out as it is too time-consuming for the family to set up. After extensive research on the Internet, the Gittels finally decide on a roof tent. Most rooftop tents on the net only offer a standard sleeping area of 1.40 meters maximum, which is too narrow for three people. Finally, they came across a suitable option – the X-Cover from iKamper, which is large enough to accommodate four people, measuring 2.10 by 1.90 meters.

Here you can quickly compare the considerations of the Gittel family:

The solution to the space problem: a larger roof tent! (Tip: You can find suitable sizes under: Roof tent for 2 people, Roof tent for 3 people, Roof tent for 4 people and Roof tent for 5 people).

Price of roof tents: Search for bargains

In terms of price, roof tents range between 800 and 4,000 euros. The decisive criteria for buying a roof tent are a sleeping area of at least 1.60 meters wide, quick set-up and an affordable price, with a pain threshold of 3,000 euros. The Gittels’ dream roof tent is somewhat expensive at 3,300 euros. However, you can also find second-hand tents on the Internet, which means you can make considerable savings. They browse for new items and bargains. Tino and Yvonne find what they are looking for: their dream tent now costs just 2,500 euros.

Price: 800 – 4,000 euros (used: around 2,500 euros)

Searching for the campsite: preparation & planning

Tino’s next challenge is to find the right campsite, which is no easy task given that there are almost 2,800 campsites in Germany. But which of these campsites is the right one for the family? The selection criteria are many and varied, because it’s not just about the campsite’s facilities. The family is looking for cleanliness and peace and quiet, which is why Tino believes that it is important to find out about the campsites in advance, for example by reading reviews and ratings.

They also want the campsite to have certain facilities, including a playground and a restaurant, to ensure they can cater for themselves on site. A site with at least four stars is preferred, and it should be a reasonably priced alternative to a hotel. In addition, they need to consider what sights they want to see and what activities they want to do. For more comfort, the roof tent is mounted on a trailer.

If you want to go camping with your child, these criteria can also help you find the right campsite:

• Reviews & ratings
• Cleanliness, relaxation & tranquillity
• Amount of the price
• Sights & activities
• Playground & restaurant?

Not just planning a campsite: buying accessories

Before the journey can begin, Tino and Yvonne have to do some shopping, including two sleeping bags, two sleeping mats as well as pots, crockery and cutlery to ensure that they are well supplied during the trip. Of course, a second-hand camping kitchen is also a must in the trailer. Tino is particularly concerned about the provisions, as he appreciates a certain level of comfort.

You need this absolute basic equipment in any case:

• Sleeping bags
• Sleeping mats
• Kitchen
• Pots
• Tableware
• Cutlery

Tip! You can read about what else you should take with you and other important camping tips here: Camping accessories.

Environmental protection & choice of destination: car & travel

A big advantage for Tino and Yvonne are the operating costs, as they use an electric car. This means that they only have to pay around 70 euros in electricity costs for a 500 km journey, compared to almost 100 euros if they were to use an older petrol car. It is also a more environmentally friendly travel option. For a shorter trip, the family opts for the North Sea coast and Cuxhaven as their destination. Friends of theirs are also camping there, and they like it too.

These tips will help you protect the environment and your wallet:

• Electric car: lower operating costs
• Choice of destination: not too far away

Is it worth it? Camping adventures with the family

In conclusion, the question arises as to whether the financial outlay was worth it and whether a camping vacation can be considered a cost-effective alternative to a hotel stay. The Gittel family is satisfied with their camping adventure. Samiya sleeps restfully in the roof tent and all family members can switch off in the fresh North Sea air without an all-inclusive program and time pressure. This vacation has brought the family closer together and they are ready for more camping adventures.

Here is the conclusion of our tester family in a nutshell:

• Satisfied Gittel family
• Restful sleep in the roof tent
• Relax in the fresh North Sea air
• Strengthening family cohesion
• More camping adventures with pleasure

Dawn in the mountains: try out rooftop tent camping

What does it actually feel like to be on the road with a roof tent? Imagine it’s early in the morning, the sun is just rising and you’re up at 1,500 meters above sea level – with a roof tent! Sounds like a crazy trip, doesn’t it? Today I want to tell you about the adventure night from the YouTube channel Motorreport in the mountains, where bloggers Anja and Matthias spent the night in an iKamper roof tent for the very first time.

You can find out more about iKamper roof tents here:

• IKamper roof tent

You can watch the video here:

On the road in the large version: Skycamp roof tent

The two bloggers had the Škoda Enyaq Coupé as their base vehicle, and on the roof of the car they had a roof tent called the iKamper Skycamp 3.0. As usual with the Skycamp models, the Skycamp 3.0 is available in a Mini Edition and a large version. They had the large version here, which offers space for up to four people. Anja and Matthias slept in it to see how spacious it is.

Tip! You can read more about this roof tent size here: Rooftop tent for 4 people.

Setting up the roof tent: Let the adventure begin!

Anja put up the roof tent for the very first time at the very beginning. To put up the roof, she first had to unlock the eyelets with the key and then fold down the tent. Now they could fold up the roof in pairs. The wind was blowing quite strongly, but the roof almost raised itself. Depending on the dynamic load capacity of the vehicle, the ladder can either be stowed directly on the roof tent or in the trunk. In the video, it was stowed in the trunk. Next, it was locked into place, extended and the roof tent was up.

Once at the top, the awning could be erected, which was surprisingly easy. The awning already came with poles that just had to be inserted into the brackets on the tent. And Anja already had a protective roof over her head.

You should remember this procedure for your first roof tent assembly:

1. Unlock eyelets with key
2. Folding down the base plate
3. Fold up the roof in pairs
4. Ladder in the roof tent or trunk depending on load capacity
5. Engage ladder & set up securely
6. Insert awning poles into brackets

Freezing temperatures & wind: experience & advice

For the overnight stay, Anja and Matthias decided to close the roof tent completely. It has three layers: the outer layer, a fly screen and a blackout blind. This meant they could be sure that they would not only stay dry, but would also be protected from insects. During the night, however, they felt the wind. The thermometer read around 5 °C. They reported that thinner sleeping bags would not have been a good idea.

As a conclusion to their first night in the roof tent, they had these suggestions for improvement: Wrap up thick and maybe put something under the mattress. But challenges aside, the view from the roof tent in the morning was simply breathtaking. When they opened the windows, a breathtaking panoramic view awaited them. Even the wind wasn’t so bad.

For your next roof tent adventure: Warm sleeping bags & put something under the mattress.
