How to get around

The official Formentera tourism website is committed to sustainable, non-polluting and environmentally friendly transport. We especially recommend the use of the bicycle to move around the island, which, for the most part, is accessible and flat, and the use of public buses for longer or more tiring journeys, such as the climb to La Mola. By bicycle you can get to know the most authentic Formentera, the parts that cannot be seen from the road, and appreciate it from another perspective and at a different pace.
