What to visit Formentera?
Interview: My Formentera
with Anne-Sophie Lamotte, author of the guide
After being lost in the Amazon, having touched the American dream and having walked in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia, Anne-Sophie found in Formentera her quiet paradise located a few blocks from her adopted city: Barcelona! Not a season goes by without her taking off to visit this little Mediterranean treasure. You might even see her in Saint Francesc at breakfast time

Timetable
The few museums and cultural institutes on the island are generally open from 10am and close between 7pm and 9/22pm depending on the season and the establishment. Some of them take a break from 2pm to 4/5pm.
To be booked
It is mainly to take part in the visit of natural areas (boat tour in particular) that it will be advisable to make a preliminary reservation.
Main events
The people of Formentera are quite festive, especially during the summer months. While the calendar of patron saint's day celebrations structures the agenda, the number of small events - musical, gastronomic, cultural, sporting - that punctuate the passage of summer in the four corners of the island is incalculable.
Smokers
Smoking is not permitted in cultural centres. In open-air and natural areas, it is the responsibility of smokers not to disturb non-smokers and to leave the areas clean.
