Balearic Islands

Mallorca's island group

The Balearic Islands are a Spanish archipelago in the western Mediterranean Sea, comprising four main islands—Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, and Formentera—along with numerous smaller islets.

The islands form an autonomous community of Spain and are renowned as tourist destinations, particularly for beaches, nightlife, and Mediterranean climate.

Ibiza is especially famous for its club scene, while Mallorca and Menorca attract visitors seeking quieter coastal resorts and historic sites.
