National and natural parks in the Balearic Islands protect both the region’s unique ecosystems and cultural heritage. S’Albufera Natural Park in Mallorca spans over 1,700 hectares of wetlands, hosting rare birds like the purple heron, booted eagle, and marsh harrier. Visitors can hike, birdwatch, and explore the interpretive center. Cabrera National Park, a small archipelago south of Mallorca, preserves rare endemic species on land and in the surrounding marine reserve. The Balearics also feature cultural protected sites, including Menorca’s Talayotic settlements, Palma de Mallorca’s Gothic cathedral, and Ibiza’s historic Dalt Vila, blending nature with heritage.
