From Winter to Full Energy: The Rise of Padel in Ibiza
- Mar 25
- 3 min read
After a rainy winter, Ibiza is coming back to life. The sun is shining again, the terraces are filling up, and the island is slowly waking up into its vibrant, magnetic energy — the kind of energy that makes Ibiza so unique.
With the return of better weather, longer days and that unmistakable island feeling, there’s one thing we see happening everywhere: people are eager to get back on the padel court.
At Ibiza Padel Academy, this shift is something we feel every single day. Our community continues to grow steadily, with more players joining our activities week after week. From early morning Early Birds sessions, to lessons and clinics, to our signature Padel is Life tournaments, the courts are filling up, and the energy is back where it belongs.
What makes this journey special is not just the growth in numbers, but the quality of the community we are building. A diverse mix of locals, expats, entrepreneurs and international visitors, all connected by a shared love for padel, sport and the Ibiza lifestyle.
A New Season, A Growing Community, One Love for Padel
We are incredibly grateful to see how many players choose to be part of this journey. Every new face on court, every returning player, every shared match — it all contributes to something bigger than just sport.
With three fantastic and dedicated coaches, a growing network of strong and supportive partners, high-quality events and tournaments, and an increasingly active player base, we feel more ready than ever for what’s ahead.

Player Highlight: Bob van Affelen van Saemsfoort!
We’d like to give a special shoutout to Bob van Affelen, someone who is truly at the heart of the padel community on Ibiza.
