The spit of land called Cap de Formentor (Formentor cape) is located in the Pollença municipality on the northernmost tip of the island of Majorca. It is a narrow 20-kilometre-long peninsula which the Majorcans affectionately call the ‘meeting point of the winds’. This is the case because, as a result of its high exposure to the seas, the winds from the Iberian Peninsula, the Alps, the Atlantic Ocean and north Africa have always met there, creating a picture-postcard landscape dotted with cliffs and pine groves everywhere.
