12 Best Beaches of Formentera

Formentera is renowned the world over for its spectacularly pristine beaches, which are often compared with their Caribbean counterparts, because of the quality of the sand and the amazing clearness of the water. Although the island measures only 83km², it is home to several magnificent beaches and coves, and as Formentera is everything that its sister island, Ibiza, is not, it is the perfect place to “get away from it all” and chill out and soak up the sunshine in the most relaxed manner possible.

Depending on what you’re looking for - facilities, restaurants, bars, naturism, or untouched and unspoiled playas - some beaches will appeal to you more than others, but there’s something for everybody!
