Rank : 8.5 (average on 2 votes)

Coordinates : 39.994151, 4.039893 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Landscapes (night and daytime), interesting the headlights of the island: Cape d'Atrutx Lighthouse and Cavalry Lighthouse especially. The city of Ciutadella is to visit, very typical although in July and August it is really busy. The best beaches from both a naturalistic and 'holiday' point of view are Son Bou, Cale Macrellata, Cala turqueta, Cala Tortuga, Cala Torreta, Cala Pregonda (albeit crowded), Cala Pilar. Excellent the opportunity to trek along the coast via the Camì de Cavalls, perhaps the true pearl of the island... 185 km of route around the island. Many species of birds although difficult to catch such as the Capychie and the Royal Nibbio. Many folaghe, both in the natural park of S'Albufera and in the small lagoons that border the beach; in these circumstances it is pleasant to contrast with the 'marine' environment.

Recommended equipment : From wide-angle pushed to bird-friendly telephoto. Sincerely, however, I do not want too heavy equipment, in the end this island should be enjoyed as a 'holiday' not only photographic.

Best months : From April to October, but also all year round... depends on the reason for the visit.

How to get there : By plane directly from Italy. Personally I left MILANO malpensa with arrival headed to Maò, then rented moped 125 to explore the island.

Visits : The island of course is free access, as is the natural park of s'Albufera.
