About Baleares
The Balearic Islands are much more than sun and sand: Palma Cathedral, the Serra de Tramuntana, Dalt Vila in Ibiza and Ciutadella in Menorca show their historic side, while coves like Caló des Moro, Cala Macarella or Ses Illetes in Formentera have turquoise waters that are hard to beat.
Frequently asked questions about Baleares
Which Balearic island should I visit?
Mallorca is the most varied (Palma, the Tramuntana, the Coves del Drac); Menorca is the quietest, with unspoilt coves; Ibiza combines Dalt Vila with beaches and nightlife, and Formentera is perfect to unwind.
When is the best time to visit the Balearic Islands?
May, June and September: the sea is already pleasant and it is less crowded than in July and August. In winter many coastal hotels and restaurants close.
What to see in Mallorca in one day?
Palma and its cathedral, La Seu, in the morning and, in the afternoon, a drive through the Serra de Tramuntana to Valldemossa or Sóller.
