Balearic Islands

Overview

Take a trip to Balearic Islands on your Spain vacation.

The Balearic Islands are part of an enchanting archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea, comprising Mallorca, Minorca, Ibiza, and Formentera, all offering an exciting array of experiences. 

Mallorca is the largest of the Balearics, with fascinating landscapes and historical landmarks. Explore the Almudaina Palace, once a Moorish fortress and royal residence in the Island's capital, Palma de Mallorca, before visiting the main square of Palma Old Town, Plaza Mayor, once the headquarters of the Inquisition. Relax on several splendid beaches near Palma before exploring the island's coastline, enriched with secluded coves between rugged cliffs and fragrant pine groves. Indulge in water sports like scuba diving, windsurfing, sailing, and surfing before venturing inland to Mallorca's picturesque landscapes, featuring a nature reserve, hiking trails, and charming villages. 

Embrace Ibiza's more exciting lifestyle and discover why the island is known as the Party Island. Be sure to visit the ancient Phoenician site of Sa Caleta and the historic village of Eivissa and discover how the island earned a UNESCO World Heritage Site designation. 

The isles of Minorca and Formentera offer more tranquil escapes, with both coastlines featuring rugged shores and golden sandy coves, all surrounded by crystal-clear waters. Sailing, windsurfing, water skiing, and scuba diving enthusiasts will find their haven in Minorca, and travelling inland will reward you with incredible landscapes for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding. The S’Albufera d'Es Grau nature reserve is a haven for aquatic and migratory birds, representing one of Southern Europe's most crucial wetland areas.
