Once you have settled in to the hotel and taken a dip in the sea at the beach, you must go and see the famous lighthouse, the Faro de la Mola. Everyone who goes has a photo taken of themselves with the landmark in the background that has become an iconic symbol for visitors and Formentera residents alike.
