How To Plan A Wedding In Ibiza

by Randolph Quan

The Mediterranean island of Ibiza, about 80 km off the coast of Spain, is a beautiful place to plan a wedding. With only a two-hour flight from the United Kingdom, it’s a little piece of paradise without the extensive travel to get there. Like every foreign country, though – Ibiza is part of Spain, for those who were uncertain — there are some complications and hoops to jump through in order to have a dream wedding in Ibiza.

Unfortunately, Spain makes it very hard for non-residents to get married in their country. (I suppose they don’t want to share all that beauty with us foreigners?) To circumvent all the red tape, many UK couples choose to have a civil legal ceremony before departing to their symbolic wedding in Ibiza.

The actual wedding in Ibiza is more of a blessing, but for many couples, it works just as well. For many people, it has to work because if you’re not an Ibiza resident or if you’re not Catholic, you cannot have a legal wedding in the country.

If you do happen to be Catholic and would like a legal wedding in Ibiza, then be warned to get started on the process early so you’re well aware of everything required of you. typically be requested to provide these documents:

Whale Watching – One of the Many Adventures in Cabo San Lucas

by Paul Garnett

Cabo San Lucas is located at the tip of the Baja Peninsula in Mexico where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez. With these huge bodies of waters, whales often find Cabo San Lucas a haven. Magdalena Bay in Cabo is a favorite place for whales especially during mating season, which is the best time to go whale watching in Cabo.

Indeed, there are a lot of choices when you are looking for great adventures in Cabo. Many touring companies are also offering whale watching tours in Cabo especially during the months when whales visit Cabo.

This activity is also ideal if you are vacationing with the family and you are bringing along the children. Especially for kids who are still young for some water sports, whale watching could be a great alternative.

Whale watching tours include services in fetching you up in your hotel and sending you off to the marina for a boat ride to the Magdalena Bay – the bay where whales takes shelter in some particular times of the year. This is also where these enormous creatures mate and give birth, so you will be able to see their young during those times.

The excitement of whale watching comes when these huge mammals are spyhopping. This happens when they tend to be ’standing’ in the water, their bodies submerged except their heads, and they tend to observe their surroundings.
