Balearic Islands
Mediterranean Paradise
This wonderful group of islands is divided into Gimnesias (Mallorca,
Menorca and Cabrera) in the North, and Pitiusas (Ibiza y Formentera) in
the South-West.
Their excellent climate with some 300 days of sun per year, wonderful
beaches, a rich cultural offer and the unusual hospitality of their
inhabitants make Balearic Islands one of the preferred holiday
destinations in Spain. There are more passengers at the airport of Palma
de Mallorca than at the airport of any other Spanish city. Hardly anybody
who has spent holidays here didn't wish to return, in fact, many visitors
have made the islands their permanent home. Each of the islands has a
strong personality all of its own, and each of them offers much more but
the possibility to spend nice holidays at the beach ...
Mallorca - Mediterranean Lady
This elegant island has to offer anything a visitor might dream of.
Tourism at Mallorca started to develop already in the 1920s, and until the
Spanish Civil War it was mainly intellectuals and artists who were
attracted by this island.
Mallorca's wonderful climate, beautiful landscapes as well as its
cosmopolitan ambience make it a privileged holiday resort, with a cultural
offer comparable to the one of many European capitals. The Auditiorio de
Palma, for instance, ranks among Europe's top concert halls. At Mallorca,
you will find relaxation, inspiration, culture and entertainment ...
Menorca - The Windy Island
Legend tells that the winds of Menorca modify the personality of people.
Maybe that is the reason why those who came here once as tourists mostly
return ... Menorca certainly has a very strong personality, and a very
different one to the rest of the islands. Menorca, the "minor" island, as
it was called by Romans, has an almost virginal interior (compared for
instance to the "major" island, Mallorca) and shows interesting remains of
its old history. On the other hand, there are beaches and lonely bays
around it at a length of 216 kilometers. An ideal resort for all those who
are looking for true relaxation.
Ibiza - The White Island
Ibiza, often called the White Island for its typical architecture, became
a major center of touristical attraction during the 1960s, being then
famous for its "Hippie-Culture" and nudist beaches. Today Ibiza has an
ample offer as well for families and older visitors, anyhow, still there
are the young ones who are attracted by the island's rollicking nightlife,
which already starts in the afternoon, at the beaches and in the center of
town, to continue until dawn in the numerous discotheques.
If you leave the beaches behind you to explore the island's interior, you
will find a pure and simple Mediterranean culture, and remains of
populations which inhabited Ibiza thousands of years ago, as for instance
the famous wall-paintings of Ses Fontelles.
Formentera - Pitiusa Paradise
This small island, with a surface of 90 squ.km. and some 5200 inhabitants,
is located 11 miles from the south-eastern coast of Ibiza. The sea is
visible from practically any point of the island, and there are numerous
great beaches and lonely bays, some of them with incredible grottos.
Its favorised climate, with springtime temperatures during almost all the
year, its rich vegetation of pines as well as palms, and its quiet and
relaxed ambience make Formentera a true paradise.
Cabrera - Virgin Nature
When you visit Cabrera, which is located just face to face to Mallorcas
southern coast, and its lonely beaches, you will really feel like Robinson
Crusoe. Cabrera was declared nature preserve in 1991, since then access is
controlled by the Spanish National Institute for the Conservation of
Nature.
