Formentera, Spain
Just nine miles long, Formentera is the smallest of the Balearic Islands and has a population of 5,000. Unlike some of the other islands, Formentera’s strength lies not in history, culture or tourism, but in its landscape, with more than 60% of it protected by law.
Ferries bring visitors from Ibiza all summer long to enjoy the some of the most unspoiled beaches in Spain. We were only able to spend one day here, so we made the most of it and rented a scooter to see the island.
While there are cars on the island, there are more scooters than we have ever seen in such a small area. The island’s landscape is beautiful, with vineyards, pine trees, wheat fields, dramatic cliffs, tiny charming villages, beaches and beach bars.
