About Mallorca from Formentera: the back story

Mallorca is reached by sea via Ibiza: Baleària gives Palma–Formentera as 150 km and about 4 hours, with a stop in Ibiza, as there are no regular direct routes (balearia.com). Our sister guide covers the island in depth.

Getting there

Baleària: Formentera–Palma via Ibiza, about 4 hours. Check timetables on the operator’s site.

What to see
