Sunflower Landscape Guide – Ibiza & Formentera
Until the sixties, Ibiza belonged to the Ibizans, and only a few artists, poets and writers lived in this paradise. Then the flower-children arrived, the hippies and drop-outs. In the last decades however, mass tourism has taken over and unfortunately destroyed much of the charm of Ibiza and Formentera.
But not everything on the islands has been spoiled. ‘Bed and burgerbar’ building has reached saturation point, and a visit to the pine islands (the ‘Pityussae’, as the Greeks called them) is still worthwhile today. There’s an unending wealth of hidden beauty spots to be discovered, and this book helps you to find the best of Ibiza and Formentera by car, bicycle, or on foot.
3 car tours (with accompanying touring map), 27 long and short walks and 5 cycle tours (each with 1:40,000 topo map), 16 picnic suggestions for Ibiza; 6 cycle tours and 1 walk for Formentera (with accompanying 1:40,000 topo map). Plans of Eivissa (Ibiza Town), Sant Antoni, Santa Eulària. Free online update service with specific route change information on the publisher’s website, maintained daily.
The ‘Landscapes’ series, with 50 destinations, has been dubbed ‘the blue Bibles’ by the Sunday Times and led to Sunflower being one of only four publishers (from a field of 18) chosen as a Which? Recommended Provider of Guidebooks.
