White sand, warm water and the clearest I've ever seen! Highly recomended. However, you can't go to there by foot. You must rent a car/bike or pick up the bus that leaves at the Port.

Took a bermuda boat party trip to formentera, and amazed by what i saw, clear blue water, white sand...its facinating but bit quiet as i went in october.. Shame i didnt get much time to spend on the island, but loved every minute of it...i loved playa den bossa until i saw formentera....
