Ibiza Town Council has just opened a brand new tourist information office, costing 16,000 €, by the beach at Figueretes. The timely inauguration comes a mere 5 weeks before the end of the tourist season in October, when it will close until May 1st next year! However the tourist hordes in this area will be well served until then, as the office will be open, staffed by a student from the Tourist School of the University, from 11.00 until 13.30, and then from 17.00 to 19.30. It will of course be closed on a Sunday afternoon when all tourists cease to circulate the highways and byways of the parish.
