Balearic Islands Spain

Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza & Formentera

Balearic Islands Spain


These very popular islands lay off the coast of Valencia and are just a ferry-ride or short flight away from the Valencia city Spain.

The stunning islands of Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera are very easy to reach.


Flights from Valencia to Majorca, Menorca and Ibiza

At the moment the low cost airline Vueling who are based in Barcelona with additional hubs at Valencia and Madrid airports only have a flight from Valencia to Ibiza.


The flight from Valencia to Ibiza is Vueling's shortest flight as Ibiza is only 107 miles from Valencia.


Other airlines with flights to the Islands are Air Europa, Air Berlin, Spanair and Iberia who all have regular flights to Majorca, Menorca and Ibiza.


Ferry from Valencia to Majorca, Menorca and Ibiza


There are many ferries leaving the port of Valencia for the Balearic Islands.


This can be a very enjoyable way of combining a city break to Valencia with a trip to Majorca, Menorca or Ibiza.


There are very fast ferries from Valencia and also slower routes which cost less. The quick route to the city of Palma in Majorca from Valencia takes about 4 hours and to Ibiza 3 hours.


A one way ticket can often be as little as 19 euros but this is out of season and more expensive during the busy periods. A return trip is necessary - maximum 48 hours at destination.


Language of Valencia and the Islands

Although the Castilian language is the main language in Spain and often used in Valencia, Catalan is also widely used throughout Barcelona and Catalunya, Valencia, the Balearic Islands and Andorrra.

To a lesser extent it's also used in Aragon (La Franja) and Murcia (Carche) and in the Roussillon region of southern France - Northern Catalunya.

Note: The language of Valencia is known as Valencian and although some Valencians say it is a separate language many say it is a variation of Catalan.


Balearic Islands Food & Drinks

Balearic Island food and drinks also have a lot in common with the dishes and ingredients used in Catalunya and the Valencian Community which are all very delicious.
