Here at Islas we're not trying to sell you an holiday to either Menorca,
Majorca, Lanzarote or Tenerife. We do not operate any on-line booking service,
and we are totally independent from all Travel Agents and Tour Operators.
Our mission is simple, to provide you with practical first hand advice from real
paying visitors to the resorts, hotels and attractions that the islands have to
offer.
So sit back, relax and let your journey begin......
Menorca - Peace and Relaxation
Although only 25 miles from its neighbour Mallorca, Menorca is more peaceful
than any of the other Balearic Islands and remains an oasis of sandy coves with
over 120 sandy beaches of clear azure seas.
Menorca is often claimed to be one of the most beautiful islands in the whole of
the Mediterranean, with strong British links dating back to the times of Nelson.
For the energetic, the island offers a superb selection of water sports, and for
lovers of history there are mysterious, archaeological remains that date back to
prehistoric times.

Majorca - Love Island
For over 30 years Majorca or Mallorca, whatever way you choose to spell it and
pronounce it, has been the most popular holiday destination in the Mediterranean
for both the British and German tourist.
Majorca is able to offer a wide variety of attractions and nightlife to suit all
tastes, ranging from the wild clubs and bars in Magaluf and Palma Nova in the
popular south of the island, to the relaxed and charming family orientated
resorts of Puerto Pollensa and Cala Millor on the north and east coasts.
A combination of both outstanding natural beauty and professional tourist care
will ensure that it's popularity will continue well into the future.

Tenerife - The Island of Contrasts
Located off the north coast of Africa, a little way to the north of the Tropic
of Cancer, Tenerife is a sub-tropical paradise that offers something for
everyone.
The island is dominated by the now dormant volcano "Mount Teide", which at
12,000ft is the highest mountain in Spain.
To the south, the ever popular resorts of Playa de Las Americas and Los
Cristianos are basked in year round sunshine, whilst the north of the island is
a lush green tropical paradise of banana plantations, palm trees and flowers.
Tenerife is truly a unique island of startling contrasts.

Lanzarote - The Island of Fire
Created around 35 million years ago, Lanzarote is the most easterly of the seven
major and six smaller Canary Islands, all of which lie in the Atlantic Ocean
between 60 to 190 miles from the north western coast of Africa.
Originally the Canary Islands were only a winter sun destination, but the unique
combination of warm sunshine and fantastic modern holiday developments, has
firmly put Lanzarote on the holiday map 12 months of the year.
Almost one third of the island is covered by the Timanfaya National Park, which
is a spectacular lava flow that was formed by a series of volcanic eruptions
during the 18th and 19th Century.
Volcanologists still recognise that Lanzarote is considered to be "active",
although even with the best technology available to them, it still remains
impossible to predict with any accuracy when the next eruptions are likely to
occur.
