Isla de Espalmador
Muddy heaven on a small secluded island in the Mediterranean
If you're looking for even more seclusion than the island of Formentera, then you can catch another boat from the port at La Savina in the north of Formentera, to the smaller island of Espalmador.
Privately owned by a wealthy Spanish family although the beautiful white sandy beaches can be visited by the public. Located just a few metres off the northern tip of Formentera, this really is a little paradise. Also on the island are mud baths which you can bathe in and treat your skin.
Sights & Attractions in Isla de Espalmador
One of the more popular reasons to visit the island is the natural mud bath that can be found in the middle. On a wide salt plain you can spend your day wallowing in the cool mud pool, and then wash it off in the sea after. A great way to relax...although there are actually no known health benefits of the mud.
Beaches in Isla de Espalmador
