The Islands are preferred by tourists from northern Europe, partly because the southern coast is built to a large extent and is full of hotels and apartments.  Away from the coast, however, the story is different. There are particularly respected unspoiled Tramuntana hills.\u00a0Recently, the entire island had a general ordering.\u00a0In crowded neighborhoods such as Magaluf, old hotels were literally swept and replaced in an attempt to add a new quality to the island.\u00a0The capital\u00a0Palma is now one of the most visited and popular small towns of Spain.  Ibiza\u00a0has long been thought to be good for its rave scene, which is concentrated in the charming hippie-chic town of Ibiza, San Antonio Canyon and resort Playa D'en Bossa.\u00a0However, if you go away from these places you will find that the island is incredibly rural.  A narrow channel separates Ibiza from Formentera. Formentera is the least inhabited Balearic Island and it looks like it is sprinkled with soft, white sand. Moreover, it is accessible only by ferry.\u00a0Although Majorca and Ibiza have excellent beaches, Menorca is famous for its bays.\u00a0Tourists who come to Menorca are mainly families with children because the atmosphere on this island is much calmer and quieter than on the other two islands.  Attractions  The greatest attraction is probably dancing in some of the fantastic landscaped discos such as Pacha in Ibiza and Abraxas in Palma in Majorca.  A good place for visiting is Palma, a charming town situated in the Bay of Palma.\u00a0The golden sandy Cathedral is a masterpiece while the castle Belver from the 14th\u00a0century from which you can see the whole city, is stunning.  The most beautiful view of Majorca is from the Serra de Tramuntana. Sit on the old train from Palma to Solera and enjoy the short ride.\u00a0Feel the atmosphere of the former capital of Menorca - Siudadela, visit the Cathedral, the elegant palaces and medieval churches.  Shopping here is also excellent.\u00a0The second part of the island, Mahon, is also worth visiting.\u00a0Beach lovers should bring their best swimsuits to pose on the Las Salinas in Ibiza. However, they can also have great time on the lonely beach on Formentera or a small bay such as Cala or Cala en Turqueta Macarella on the Menorca.  Find out why Majorca is known for its caves, especially the exceptional Cuevos del Drach (Dragon's cave), in which there is an unforgettable underground lake.  Do not miss out a yacht ride, Balearic Islands are known for beaches, snorkeling and scuba diving.\u00a0Ibiza Town should not be neglected since it is in the UNESCO list of protected heritage. It offers a medieval fortress and Dalt Villa (Upper Town), narrow cobbled streets, beautiful squares and chic shopping.  Climate  The islands enjoy mild Mediterranean climate.\u00a0Maximum temperatures are not extreme, even in the peak of the season due to the refreshing influence of the sea.\u00a0In winter, the weather is generally mild and dry with occasional showers."}
