For many visitors, Formentera is still the most beautiful island in the Balearics.

This is ensured by the offshore seaweed beds, which have been granted World Heritage status due to their uniqueness. Formentera also offers an international, cosmopolitan flair. In the summer, the yachts of the rich and famous cavort in front of Ses Illetes and other such bays. However, those in search of peace and quiet will also not be disappointed.
