BALEARIC ISLANDS

Mention the word ‘Balearics’ to those who have travelled there and expect a volley of replies, for the colourful islands of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, Formentera and Cabrera are full of just about everything, and they appeal to different people in very different ways.

For example, if you plan a holiday steeped in history and culture, you’ll be charmed by Palma’s medieval cobbled streets and peaceful courtyards, and the 14th century castle on the natural park island of Isla de Cabrera. If, on the other hand, you’re a sun-loving ‘beach’ person, you can plan your cruise to wash up on the shores of Cala Salada, Cala Binirras, Cala Fornells, the island of Es Palmador, Cala Saona (which is the best beach in Formentera), or you can even dare to bare on Es Trenc – one of Mallorca’s best and
longest beaches.

However, if it’s local colour and traditional character you’re after, you can happily steer away from the crowds and find quaint and traditional island villages the likes of Soller, Pollensa, Porto Colom, or Val de Mossa, Mallorca, where Chopin lived when he was exiled. But for many people, the Balearics is a place to see and be seen, whether in the exclusive restaurant at Andraitx, the lively bars and pubs of Mahon, in Palma’s top boutiques, or in the ancient town of Ibiza, which has it all – charming flower-decked balconies leaning over cobbled streets by day, and bohemian nightclubs and bars beating through the night. Whatever your pleasure, the Balearics will oblige!
