Can I drive a moped in Ibiza on a UK License ?

Trying to find a little clarity here, as finding mixed results on google regarding pre / post brexit.

Basically, I want to go to Ibiza and hire a moped, but unsure if my UK Issued license covers me ? I have held my License since 1997 and have classes AM, A, B, B1, BE and 'fklnpg' on my license.

Thanks in advance

    Assuming you have a Photo ID Driving licence, then yes you can. Brexit has made no difference in that situation.

    Good idea to check if your travel insurance covers moped use.
    Some years ago holiday companies such as Thomsons (as was) and Thomas Cook stopped their local reps from arranging scooters etc.for customers due to the number of accidents.
    The policy is likely to be null and void if alcohol is a contributing factor, which was often the case.
