Spanish Riviera & Balearics

This blissful retreat is renowned for its healing properties, and celebrities have fallen under its magical spell. Take a mud bath in the hot spring on the adjacent island of Espalmador or dance barefoot in the sand at one on the many beach clubs open day and night. 

Although the island of Formentera is well-known for the magnetism of its natural landscapes, the island also conceals all manner of historical vestiges that show that it was a point in the Mediterranean that has been taken into account by many civilisations since ancient times. 

Formentera has been a traditional wine-growing area since time immemorial. Typical cuisine is linked to the traditional way of life, strongly influenced by the link with the sea and rainfed agriculture. It is characterised by an almost absolute dependence on local products. 

From here, cruise to the protected National Maritime Park archipelago of Cabrera. Once a base for pirates in the 13th century, today access to this unspoilt location requires a special permit. Cabrera has its own Blue Grotto which you can visit and have a dip in its astounding blue water. 

The Bay of Roses is one of the most attractive cruising areas of mainland Spain, with scores of beautiful calas and sandy beaches perfect for anchoring and swimming. Continue south towards Barcelona and stop to explore Port Estartit and the Medes Islands, which are part of a protected marine park. Further south, discover the gorgeous beaches of Sa Riera and Sa Tuna.
