Located at the northern tip of Mallorca, Cape Formentor is a paradisiacal corner that majestically extends into the Mediterranean Sea, offering breathtaking panoramic views.

This cape is known as “The meeting point of all winds” or the “End of the World”, and a visit here will make you feel as if you were on the very edge of the planet. It is so named because here, given its high exposure to the coast, the winds of the Iberian Peninsula, European Alps, Atlantic Ocean, and North Africa have historically met, resulting in an iconic landscape in Mallorca.
Access to Cape Formentor is by car or also by public transport. If you go in high season, there may be traffic restrictions for cars and you may have to take public transport for the last stretch.

If you have a rental car or motorcycle, you can easily access it without depending on public transport, keep in mind that in high season the parking is paid. Once you have parked your vehicle, from the parking lot you will find a small dirt path to the beach, then, you just have to relax and enjoy a spectacular beach day.
