Balearic Islands – The Four Beautiful Sisters

PLAY


Discover the many facets of the Spanish islands in the Mediterranean.

Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera are united by their Mediterranean climate, contrasting landscapes and rich wildlife - and yet they are very different. On their turquoise-blue coasts, in small mountain villages and magnificent towns, we meet people who live the modern lifestyle just as much as their traditions. An average of nearly 18 million people visit the Balearic Islands each year.

They are all attracted by the sun, beaches and party fun. The 4-part documentary shows that the islands have more to offer. It focuses on flora and fauna off the beaten tourist track - and the people who want to preserve or even improve these environments.
