Cap de Formentor
Cap de Formentor, 07460, Balearic Islands, Spain
Cap de Formentor is a windswept headland at Mallorca’s northern tip in the Serra de Tramuntana, renowned for its dramatic limestone cliffs, the historic Far de Formentor lighthouse, panoramic walking trails and a sheltered sandy bay — an iconic natural attraction for photographers, hikers and beachgoers.
What Makes It Special
The chain of clifftop viewpoints culminating at the lighthouse — including the famous Mirador Es Colomer — offers some of the island’s most dramatic sea vistas and unforgettable sunrise and sunset photo opportunities.
Insider Tips
Visit early morning or late afternoon to avoid coach crowds and limited parking; consider the seasonal shuttle or a boat from Port de Pollença if you don’t want to drive, and bring sturdy shoes, water and sun protection since paths are exposed and not wheelchair-friendly.
