This adventure begins in Alicante, a gorgeous port town with vibrant nightlife, exquisite food scene, a well-curated contemporary art museum, and Santa Barbara Castle overlooking the town. From Alicante, we will head north towards Benidorm and turn to the Balearic Archipelago from there.
During the trip, we will visit three Balearic islands - Formentera, Ibiza, and Mallorca.
First, we will sail from the Spanish Costa Blanca to Formentera, and visit Sant Francesc de Formentera and the stunning sandy beaches and salty lakes. Formentera is beautifully pure and tranquil. Tourism there is restricted and environmentally ethical, which results in a perfect get-away from the buzz of Alicante and the upcoming party scene in Ibiza.
Then we will sail to Ibiza, where we will stay in Puerto de Ibiza, visit the picturesque port town Dalt Vila and sunbathe on the beaches Ibiza is famous for (Playa Cala Salada, Cala Bassa, Cala Saladeta). Optionally, we can visit Parque Natural de Ses Salines. The southern part of the island is a hedonist’s dream with a vibrant nightlife scene, whereas the interior and northeast are peaceful.
Next, we will set sail to Mallorca, where we will spend the remaining time of the trip. Mallorca is breathtaking, to say the least. Everyone can find something for themselves, from the nightlife and white sand beaches to visiting caves (Cueva dels Hams, Cueva del Arta, Cuevas del Drach where you can listen to concerts), natural parks (PN de Mondrago
PN d’Albufera de Mallorca), churches and cathedrals (Cathedral de Mallorca, the 365v Calvari steps), indulging in local food and wine (Ecovinyassa, Finca son Bordilis), and our personal favorite - hiking in Serra de Tramuntana mountains! There’s a lot to explore!
