⛵ How to get to the island of Formentera?
Formentera is accessible only by boat from Ibiza. Ferries depart regularly from Ibiza's port, and in 30 to 40 minutes, you'll arrive in this little Mediterranean paradise. Arriving at La Savina, the main port, already gives you a taste of what awaits: turquoise waters and a bohemian atmosphere. To explore the island, scooters, bicycles, or electric cars are the most popular modes of transport, as Formentera is small and perfectly suited to eco-friendly travel.
Some of the most beautiful beaches in the world
Formentera is famous for its idyllic beaches, often mentioned as the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. The water there is incredibly clear, thanks to the Posidonia seagrass meadows, an underwater plant that naturally filters the water.
- Playa de Ses Illetes : A strip of white sand surrounded by an azure blue sea, worthy of a postcard setting.
- Cala Saona : A small cove with turquoise waters, perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
- Playa de Migjorn : A wilder and more unspoiled beach, ideal for those seeking absolute peace and quiet.
Tip: Rent a boat or kayak to discover secret coves accessible only by sea.
Local cuisine and bohemian atmosphere
Formentera has preserved its culinary identity , inspired by local produce and the sea. In the chiringuitos (beach restaurants) , you can enjoy specialties like bullit de peix (fish stew) or fideuà , a local version of paella made with vermicelli noodles. All accompanied by a good glass of Hierbas Ibicencas , the typical liqueur of the Balearic Islands.
In the evening, the atmosphere is relaxed: dinner by the sea, cocktails at sunset. Craft markets , like the one in La Mola , are perfect for finding a unique souvenir, from handmade jewelry to bohemian clothing.
Spectacular sunsets
Formentera is also famous for its unforgettable sunsets . One of the best spots to admire this spectacle is Cap de Barbaria , a solitary lighthouse offering breathtaking views of the horizon.
