The name Balearics comes from the ancient Greek baleárides, meaning “those who throw stones”, referring to the formidable slingers of antiquity who defended the archipelago.
Today, it’s their sunsets we aim for… to never miss!
The official currency in the Balearics is the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted. It’s handy to have some cash for small shops or markets. ATMs (cajeros automáticos) are plentiful.
The inhabitants of the Balearic Islands are called Baléariens and Baléariennes. They share a warm culture, a keen sense of hospitality, and a deep attachment to their island traditions. However, each island has its own identity and even its own name for its inhabitants.
In Majorca, the inhabitants are called Majorquins and Majorquines (Mallorquines in Spanish). In Minorca, they are called Minorquins and Minorquines, while in Ibiza, the locals are known as Ibicencs or Ibicencas. Finally, in Formentera, the people are referred to as Formenterains and Formenteraines, often considered the most peaceful of the archipelago.
They all share a Mediterranean lifestyle characterized by conviviality, a relaxed pace, and respect for the surrounding environment. Their customs and dialect — a form of Catalan called Balearic — vary slightly from one island to another, which contributes to the charm and cultural richness of the archipelago.
In the Balearic Islands, two official languages are primarily spoken: Spanish (Castilian) and Catalan 🇪🇸.
Catalan is very present in daily life, but there are different local variants depending on the islands:
in Majorca, they speak Majorcan,
in Minorca, Minorcan,
in Ibiza and Formentera, Ibicenco.
These dialects are part of the Balearic cultural heritage and are used in toponymy (names of cities, signs, etc.) as well as in local conversations.
However, Spanish remains the common language throughout the archipelago, used in administration, commerce, and tourism. In heavily visited areas, the inhabitants often also speak English, German, and sometimes French, especially in hotels, restaurants, and travel agencies.
In the Balearics, the electrical plugs are of type C and F. The standard voltage is 230V and the frequency is 50Hz. French appliances work without an adapter.
