In the Balearic Islands in Spain, the small island of Formentera, just an hour’s boat ride from Ibiza, is one of those paradise locations that’s still untouched by mass tourism. Mostly frequented by designers, artists and vacationers with big budgets, this Mediterranean destination is keen to avoid the mass influx of tourists during the summer months, as seen on the neighbouring islands of Ibiza and Mallorca.

To achieve this, the local authority limits the number of vehicles allowed on the island and its roads.
