Spanish Mediterranean Adventure

The Spanish Mediterranean is better known for its tourist-packed beaches and all night-partying, but there is a quieter, much more spectacular side to the Spanish Mediterranean coast and islands. The Balearic Isles sit peacefully in the turquoise seas of the Mediterranean, fringed by white sands and rolling cliffs, with some of the best walking in Spain, while the mainland coast holds enticing secrets, stunning national parks and beautiful undulating trails.

For a tranquil coastal hike on Spain's Mediterranean islands, you should head to the sheer beauty of Menorca, to follow the Cami de Cavalls trail around the island. For more drama, the neighbouring island of Mallorca has towering peaks, hidden monasteries and delightful coastal villages. On the mainland there is simply nowhere like walking in the Cabo de Gata National Park, a protected stretch of volcanic coastline, dotted with charming whitewashed villages.
