FORMENTERA BUCKETLIST

FORMENTERA BUCKETLIST

Why we love Formentera?
Formentera is one of our top favorite beach destinations in the World! We try to visit at least once a year ever since we went for the first time because we just love it so much! Our favorite time to visit is September, when the weather cools down and the island empties up. We actually think that September is the best time to visit anywhere in the Mediterranean. 
The beaches are spectacular, the food is delicious and the energy is so special! Everyone is friendly, everything flows, its fun, its mysterious, its adventurous.. 
We are especially in love with the beautiful nature, the crystal clear turquoise waters and the breathtaking sunsets.

1-Fly to Ibiza

Fun Fact
Formentera lizards called “geckos” have vibrant blues and greens because they reflect the colors of their surrounding waters and vegetation

Formentera is a beautiful and magical island whether you visit by land or by sea.
It’s also very peaceful and clean.
If you visit the island please enjoy it with mindfulness so that it can be preserved as the special place it is. 
With love,
