Cycle or drive to Formentera's southernmost tip — the wild Cap de Barbaria lighthouse — through fragrant pine and rosemary scrubland, arriving at a clifftop panorama of open Mediterranean that stretches, unbroken, to Africa.
What to expect
After stepping off the ferry at La Savina, collect your e-bike from a portside rental and pedal south on near-flat roads through a UNESCO-recognised landscape of Posidonia and wild herbs. The 12 km ride to Cap de Barbaria reveals layers of Balearic scrubland opening suddenly to limestone cliffs plunging into deep blue. The lighthouse itself is a simple white tower, but the silence and the view — 360 degrees of open sea — are extraordinary. On the way back, detour to the El Mirador viewpoint for a final panorama before returning in time for the ferry.
