Formentor Travel Guide: Tips and Routes

View of the Formentor Lighthouse on top of the cliff

The Formentor Peninsula

Formentor is a narrow, rugged peninsula 12 kilometers long located at the northern tip of Mallorca. Its breathtaking cliffs and untouched pine forests make up one of the largest ecological reserves in the Balearics. You can visit by road, but due to summer traffic restrictions, visiting by boat has become the best option.

How to Get There: Road vs Private Boat?

During the summer months, the road up to Formentor Lighthouse is closed to private car traffic to prevent congestion. This forces visitors to use crowded public buses. By choosing a private boat trip, you avoid lines and enjoy a unique panoramic view of the entire peninsula.

Key Anchoring Points

Formentor beach offers excellent anchorage over white sand bottoms at 4-6 meters deep. It is a highly sheltered spot, perfect for eating on board, swimming, and paddleboarding in complete maritime tranquility.
