Answer

What can Ibiza learn from this kind of flooding?

The biggest lesson is that extreme rain is no longer a rare problem and needs better preparation. Ibiza will likely need stronger drainage maintenance, better parking rules in flood-prone areas, more green spaces that absorb water, and clearer warning systems. Long term, the island has to plan for more frequent severe weather rather than treating each event as isolated bad luck.
