About Formentera
Reachable only by ferry from Ibiza, Formentera has some of the clearest, most turquoise water in the entire Mediterranean, thanks to the seagrass meadows just offshore. Its low-key, barefoot beach-shack culture and near-total absence of high-rise development make it feel like a different era of island travel — ideal as a day trip or a slower overnight escape for groups looking to unplug.
