Balearic Islands

The Balearic Islands are a Spanish archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea made up of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, Formentera and Cabrera. Each island has its own character: Mallorca combines beaches with the Tramuntana mountains, Menorca is known for quiet coves, Ibiza for nightlife and the old town of Dalt Vila, and Formentera for Caribbean-like water. Compare the islands and find out which one suits you best in our guide to the Balearic Islands, and explore the largest of them in our Mallorca section.
