The Balearic Islands are located in the Mediterranean off the east coast of mainland Spain. The three main islands are Ibiza, Mallorca and Menorca. There are also the two tiny and unspoilt islands of Formentera, to the south of Ibiza, and Cabrera, off the southern coast of Mallorca. The islands are a favourite holiday haunt of royalty, the seriously rich and famous and package tourists from all over the world. Each has a different landscape and distinct character; between them, the Balearics offer something for everyone.
