Things to see & do

Holidays in the Balearic Islands centre around the beach, but there's plenty to do besides swimming and sunbathing. Boat trips, water sports, hiking, horse riding, sightseeing, golf, shopping and water parks are all available, depending on where you stay.

Nightlife in the Balearics varies greatly, depending on where you choose to stay. Ibiza is synonymous with clubbing, thanks to the worldfamous venues in and around San Antonio. Elsewhere on the island, the pace of life is slower and more suited to couples and families. On Majorca, Magaluf and Palma Nova are party hotspots, with big name clubs and plenty of bars to choose from. On Formentera, nightlife is very quiet and tends to be hotelbased. Menorca has a good choice of bars and discos in its larger resorts, but these tend to be more familyorientated and don't attract crowds of revellers. Throughout the Balearic Islands, you'll find a good mixture of resorts with lower key nightlife suitable for families and couples.
