Formentor is the name of the former privately owned peninsula on the northeastern tip of Mallorca. Here, a good hour's drive from Palma, it is much quieter from a tourist point of view than in other parts of the Balearic island. The landscape is also different - sandy beaches are a little rarer, instead steep cliffs often dominate the picture. This means that bathing holidaymakers are rarer here and that more hikers and nature lovers come. However, there are also several beautiful bays where you can lie in the sand and swim, many of which are also suitable for families with children thanks to a shallow entry into the water. But above all, the eye is on holiday here. Along the only road that opens up the peninsula in several turns and that starts at Port de Pollenca, there are numerous wonderful view points. Those who are on the way here will want to stop every few metres and let their gaze wander. Nature lovers also like to come here, as at the steep coast, different kinds of seabirds can be observed. The road finally leads to the most important sight at the very end of Formentor.
