The Balearic Islands, with their varied biodiversity and dreamlike landscapes, are an ideal destination for nature lovers who want to enjoy nature responsibly. In fact, Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera share a commitment to environmental conservation and respect for nature, culture and traditions. That's why we invite you to be a sustainable tourist and explore its most emblematic corners while helping to preserve the natural beauty of the islands.

Its incredible coves with crystal clear turquoise water, the picturesque villages, natural spaces and breathtaking landscapes... There are many reasons why the Balearic Islands are one of the main destinations for lovers of the Mediterranean. Visitors feel at home here, and therefore feel increasingly committed to caring for and preserving it. And we want to make it easy for you: in this article, we will explore strategies and practical tips for being a sustainable traveller in the Balearic Islands. 


Transport

Transport is one of the activities that generates the most greenhouse gas emissions. So, whether you are coming here or moving around the islands, try to choose the options with the least environmental impact. Consider arriving in the Balearic Islands by boat rather than by plane. Sailing to these islands allows you to connect more intimately with the Mediterranean Sea and admire the panoramic views of the coastline as you approach your destination. Once here, choose to explore the islands on foot or by bicycle. This will not only allow you to better enjoy its natural beauty, but will also significantly reduce your environmental impact. And if you need to travel further afield, consider carpooling or renting an electric or low-emission vehicle.


Stones... better in place

When visiting a place you fall in love with, sometimes you might not be able to resist the temptation to take something home to remind you of that memorable experience. If so, we hope it is a precious handicraft product... and not stones, shells or plants. These elements are fundamental to the ecological balance and if you take them, this can end up damaging the ecosystem. In addition, creating piles of stones or any other type of disturbance in natural areas can damage native flora and fauna and ultimately degrade the environment. 


Simply the sea

When exploring the crystal clear waters of the Balearic Islands, choose sustainable maritime activities. What are they? Those in which you, or the wind, are the driving force. Choose to discover the coastline by taking amazing kayaking excursions, explore sea caves and cliffs by paddle surfing or feel the Mediterranean breeze as you take to the coastline in a sail boat. All these options will open the door to enjoying the marine environment in a respectful way, minimising the environmental impact compared to activities using combustion engines.


Always local produce

Supporting local commerce is another fundamental aspect of any self-respecting sustainable traveller. An alternative way to make a contribution is to choose local produce, to support island farmers. As you explore local markets, you'll discover a diversity of fresh produce ranging from fruit and vegetables to cheeses, honey, liqueurs and homemade wines. By buying directly from producers, not only will you enjoy more authentic and delicious food, but you will also be boosting the local economy and reducing the carbon footprint associated with transporting goods. 

You can also choose to stay in hotels that are committed to local consumption, recycling and avoiding food waste.

To be a sustainable traveller in the Balearic Islands you don't need much, you just need to want to care for them so that they remain this beautiful for a long time. By adopting these habits, you will not only contribute to the preservation of this Mediterranean paradise, but you will also enjoy a more authentic and enriching travel experience.
