Espalmador is a small uninhabited islet just off the north tip of Formentera, separated from Formentera by a narrow shallow channel — wadeable across at low tide and a popular swim crossing. The islet is privately owned but the surrounding waters and the beach at Platja de S'Alga on the south coast are public. The shallow channel between Espalmador and the Formentera tip of Es Trucadors is one of the most photographed turquoise anchorages in the Balearics, with sandy seabed in 2-5 metres of water and visibility to 15 metres. Day-only landing is permitted on the south beach; the rest of the islet is closed. Espalmador is 15 minutes from La Savina on Formentera and 45 minutes from Ibiza. Season runs May through October.
One of the island's unique attractions is its natural mud baths. Located in a small lagoon, visitors can cover themselves in the mineral-rich mud, which is believed to have therapeutic properties. After applying the mud, visitors can enjoy the sun and leave their skin feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. It's a fun and relaxing experience that many travelers enjoy during their time on the island.
The crystal-clear waters around Espalmador are perfect for snorkeling and swimming. The marine life is abundant, and the underwater visibility is excellent. Exploring the colorful coral reefs and encountering various species of fish make snorkeling in these waters an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced snorkeler, Espalmador offers something magical beneath the surface for everyone to enjoy.
