Destination comparison
Ibiza is the clearer pick — 78 vs 59 on the Atlas Ranger Score, and it leads in 9 of 12 months. Hoi An only pulls ahead in Feb–Mar. If you're choosing on timing alone, Ibiza is the safer bet; Hoi An makes sense mainly for its own strengths or its short strong window (best in February, 88).

Ibiza is the clearer pick — 78 vs 59 on the Atlas Ranger Score, our 0–100 measure of weather, crowds, value, and timing across the year. It leads most of the year, though the month-by-month chart still shows the other's stronger windows.
Ibiza averages a higher weather score (76 vs 53). Weather is the biggest input to the score, but both have strong months and weak months; the month-by-month chart shows exactly when.

Often yes — many travellers pair them. The smart move is to time each leg to its own best months. Check each destination's full guide (linked below) for the month-by-month detail, then sequence your trip so each stop lands in its strong window.
