Formentera

1861 lighthouse on the 142 m vertical cliff at the eastern tip of Formentera, the easternmost point of the Balearics. Famous from Jules Verne's Hector Servadac novel. Leashed dogs welcome on the entire exterior platform and the surrounding clifftop paths; lighthouse interior is closed to visitors.

1972 lighthouse at the southern tip of Formentera, reached by 7 km of unpaved dirt track through juniper scrub and Bronze Age dwelling ruins. The most cinematic sunset spot on the island, with no built environment in any direction. Leashed dogs welcome the whole way and on the cliff platforms around the lighthouse.

The slim northern peninsula of Formentera, with white sand and turquoise water on both sides, regularly voted Europe's best beach. Dogs banned 1 June-30 September; outside that window the salt-flat causeway and the dirt service road across the peninsula tolerate leashed dogs and offer the iconic photo without the beach itself.

The white-washed capital village, anchored by the 1726 fortified parish church that doubled as a refuge from Barbary corsairs. The main square hosts the Wed/Sat craft markets and is ringed by café terraces welcoming leashed dogs; the church interior is closed to dogs but the exterior steps and walled garden are dog-friendly.

Historic 5 km dirt and stone path climbing from Es Caló de Sant Agustí up the cliff face to the La Mola plateau, used since Roman times. Pine groves, stone-walled fields and sweeping north coast views. Leashed dogs welcome year-round; gentle gradient suits older dogs.

The bohemian inland village famous for its hippy-era heritage, where Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell drank at Fonda Pepe in the 1960s. The shaded village square in front of the 1883 church is the social hub, with dog-friendly terraces year-round and weekly live folk music in summer.
