Where to See the Meteor Shower in Ibiza (2025)
Ibiza is magical all year round, but during summer it becomes one of the most special places in the Mediterranean to observe astronomical phenomena.
One of the most anticipated events by both locals and visitors is the meteor shower in Ibiza — a natural spectacle that turns the night sky into an unforgettable experience.
Watching shooting stars in such a natural setting allows you to reconnect with nature from a different perspective. If you stay in the right accommodation, you can even enjoy it directly from your terrace or garden.
On the Ibiza My Villa website, you’ll find luxury villa rentals in Ibiza located in peaceful rural areas with very low light pollution — perfect for stargazing.
Below, find out when to see the meteor shower in Ibiza in 2025, where to go, and what to keep in mind for the best experience.
When to See the Meteor Shower in Ibiza in 2025
Every year, between late July and mid-August, Earth passes through the debris left by the Swift-Tuttle comet, creating the Perseids — also known as the Tears of Saint Lawrence. It’s one of the most visible and spectacular astronomical events of the year.
In 2025, the peak of the meteor shower in Ibiza will occur between August 11 and 13. During those nights, more than 60 meteors per hour can be seen under clear, dark skies.
What Are the Tears of Saint Lawrence?
The Tears of Saint Lawrence is the popular name for the Perseids, due to their coincidence with the feast of Saint Lawrence on August 10.
In Ibiza, this tradition is well loved — locals and visitors gather in the countryside, organize night picnics, or simply lie back to gaze at the sky in silence.
Where to See the Meteor Shower in Ibiza
Choosing the right place is essential for a perfect view. Here are some of the best spots to see the meteor shower in Ibiza:
Cala d’Hort
Facing the islet of Es Vedrà, Cala d’Hort is one of the island’s most iconic places. At night, when the beach is empty, it offers breathtaking views of the open sky.
Es Amunts
The northern area between San Mateo, San Miguel and Santa Agnès belongs to the Es Amunts Natural Area — full of hills, forests, and no artificial light. One of the best places for stargazing in Ibiza.
Puig de Missa
In Santa Eulalia, this natural viewpoint offers wide views of the night sky, especially later at night when the town lights fade.
Your Own Villa
If you’re staying in a private house away from the towns, you can simply lie back on your terrace and enjoy the show. Many Ibiza My Villa properties have gardens and chill-out areas perfect for this.
Tips for Watching the Meteor Shower in Ibiza
- Check the weather forecast to ensure clear skies.
- Avoid bright areas and car lights.
- Bring a blanket or towel to lie comfortably.
- Don’t use your phone for 15 minutes before — let your eyes adapt to the dark.
- Be patient: meteors appear randomly, so relax and enjoy.
Other Meteor Showers Visible in Ibiza
Besides the Perseids, you can also see the Leonids (November) and Geminids (December), although less intense and in cooler months.
Any time of year is good for stargazing, but August remains the most magical period to experience a cosmic Ibiza.
Enjoying the Experience from Your Villa
One of the best ways to enjoy this moment is from the comfort of your own villa. At Ibiza My Villa, you can find properties surrounded by nature, with sea or mountain views, far from light pollution — some with panoramic terraces perfect for watching the sky.
