Car Hire Formentera

Formentera Mini Guide

Formentera is a small island off the east coast of Spain. It is one of the Balearic Islands which include the party destination of Ibiza. In fact in years gone by Formentera was only reachable from Ibiza by boat but now there are lots of ferries there as tourism has increased. The same with hiring a car, your best bet is to book your ferry ahead of time. Nevertheless many boats which are on their way to Ibiza stop at Formentera so that the passengers can enjoy the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea.



One of the main draws for naturists to Formentera is the presence of many beaches which allow nude sunbathing. Formentera is the most southerly of the Balearic Islands and it has a unique culture as a dialect of the Catalan language is spoken there. It is only separated from the nearby island of Espalamdor by a sand bank. In low tide you can even wade across between the two. Formentera has an area of thirty two square miles.

Because Formentera has windy conditions the world wind surfing junior championships were held there in 2007. All in all it is an excellent place to do water sports and have a relaxing holiday. Hiring a car keeps you out of the sun and allows you to get to the beach as quickly as possible so that you don't have to waste too much time travelling.
