Although there are package deals here for tourists, the island has been saved from mass tourism and is relatively under developed, in comparison to its neighbour of Ibiza.
Luckily any buildings higher than four stories have been outlawed, preserving the natural beauty of the island.
While the island is only 84km square, there is plenty to explore, in particular some stunning white sandy beaches.
Es Pujols is the main resort on the island with a pretty promenade hosting small cafés, restaurants and a hand full of bars, not to mention a Caribbean style white sandy beach with turquoise water. Regular boats leave from all the main resorts in Ibiza - see the travel and transport section for details.
