The other popular destination in the Spanish Mediterranean island group Formentera, there are also a couple of small, mostly un-inhabited islands such as Cabrera.

For most young people looking to enjoy wild and endless nightlife, there is only one Balearic destination. Making Ibiza holidays a rite of passage for young people from the length and breadth of Europe, and a dream destination for twenty-something’s from many other parts of the world.

There can be no doubt that the Balearic’s are a huge tourist destination even in these times of financial problems, making them the most sought after holiday islands in the whole of the glistening Mediterranean.

Officially known as Mallorca, but more commonly known in English as Majorca, is the most popular and largest in terms of tourist numbers, most of which are drawn from Northern Europe, especially the UK, Germany and Scandinavia.

There are many wonderful and beautiful sites such as the stunning Tramuntana hills, which are becoming increasingly popular, as visitors opt for other activities such as hiking and mountain biking that take them away from the traditional two weeks lazing around on the sandy beaches

The trendiest destination on the island is also its capital Palma, which has a real international feel, and offers many cultural delights such as museums and ancient architecture as well as excellent local eateries.  There are also a lot of great all inclusive Majorca hotels to choose from which are a great way of experiencing luxury accommodation without burning a hole in your pocket.

Ibiza is the only destination for any self respecting party animal, as its resorts are renowned for their incredible nightlife that feature huge clubs, including the world’s largest. As such every major DJ in the world never misses summer engagements in one of its world famous venues such as Pacha.

The island also offers a softer side, with some of the finest small bays found anywhere in the Mediterranean. As well as quiet and rustic tiny towns and resorts spread all around its 200 Kms picture perfect coastline.

Travelling from Ibiza town by ferry there just a small channel of water separating it from Formentera, which is the smallest of the inhabited islands in the Archipelago. It is well known for its incredibly soft powder sand, and gentle sloping shores that make it extremely safe for children, and as such a very popular family holiday destination.

The capital of this tiny escape from the excesses of its neighbour is Sant Francesc Xavier; but in reality the resort of Es Puiols is easily the most popular and largest tourist facility, making it difficult to find accommodation at the height of the Season.

In the Far East of the island chain, Menorca is considered to be the most un-spoilt, tranquil and beautiful, of all the Balearic Islands. It has more than its fair share of comfortable beaches and never seem to draw huge crowds.

It also has impossibly quaint fishing villages, as well as amazing and historic architecture that makes the island seem completely timeless and attractive.
