The OTHER Balearic Island Is Home To A Famous Lighthouse, A Very Quiet Capital, And An Epic Lunch!

[@isking1715]

You really have to start carrying cat treats Steve. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@mypointisyouropinion]

Hey Steve. What a fantastic video, as always. Would you believe I was in Formentera and travelled to that exact lighthouse 2 days before you on Wednesday, January 22nd. I also was the only person there. I took line 2 bus from La Savina and the bus driver gave me about 20 minutes to look around the lighthouse area while he took a break and then I travelled back with him to La Savina where I had a lovely menu del dia for €14 My trip included Ibiza, Formentera and Mallorca and it was fantastic. I t would have been the highlight of my trip had I got to meet you there as I love all your travel videos and you have also inspired me to travel more. I'm also of the opinion that you bring so much joy to so many people who are unable to travel. Thank you so much from Ireland and I'm so looking forward to your next video.

[@bostonrailfan2427]

how nice of the lighthouse’s mousers to ensure that you were alright until the lighthouse opened, the local animals sure do take good care of you 🤣

[@AnthonyHigham6414001080]

Oh wow, what memories. I was next to the lighthouse on a foggy night 45 years ago. The rotating beams were lighting up the fog and it was quite surreal. Have never forgotten it. Formentera then was a throwback to the sixties with hippie's wearing Afghan coats walking around barefoot smoking dope. Lot's of peace and love. Wonderful place. Thanks Steve.

[@Nook747]

Love the way they build around the trees and bushes ( not dig them up and destroy them ). Wonderful place

[@sporkinum]

You are living the dream.

[@elone3997]

That first cat you met at the lighthouse was so sweet - you seem to be finding a lot of mogs lately! As always though ♥️👌

[@debshipard1664]

Love that you stopped and talked to the cats.

[@ColinSlocombe]

Besides a cat 🐈 island the food looks delicious 😋

[@Stoofke777]

We are getting spoiled haha. Lovely place to visit it seems! And all the oranges. Did you tried one (or more :P)? Very quiet place to visit. Looking forward to the next one! Oh and cats... They are everywhere haha. Love them!

[@catieberg2376]

You do find the most beautiful little villages. Thanks for the bonus windmill, the absolutely stunning views from the lighthouse. Your videos are so interesting and educational, as well as entertaining.

[@k.cooley4306]

So happy that the lovely cats were so well fed and looked after. Beautiful video!

[@chrisdeeley3775]

Hi Steve. Another simple little video which conveyed the slow pace of life in Formentera, very enjoyable. The cats sure like you Steve. I hope you got home safely the next day. ATB

[@gavster_999]

Steve just have to mention, your composition and framing are so perfectly spot on. Not sure how much is theory or just instinct but it really makes all the difference! 👍🏻

[@robinwbarrett]

That sunrise behind the lighthouse was epic

[@joesandra1744]

What a cat's best friend you are.

[@suebrown436]

That visit to the lighthouse couldn't have been more perfect - I feel so grateful to have watched this video Steve. You always film in such a way that we could actually be there! I could have spent all day there if that was me. 😊

[@ericdugdale6292]

Always a great start to the day when you post a bonus video. An excellent way for me to relax. Thanks Steve.

[@Nook747]

Stunning Steve ! 🌅.....Thank you so much for taking us along.

[@JohnnysCafe_]

That is a beautiful island, the towns are lovely with the brightly coloured houses. A most enjoyable tour, thanks Steve 👍

[@dennislindenpellinge]

Oh wow! What a paradise! Thank you Steve for a wonderful video! 😍😄👍

[@andrewgalt3964]

Terrific video Steve the Sea Views are awesome ❤

[@lucillewhynot5903]

Thanks for another great video❤

[@matthewcooper7702]

The way you treat cats in all of your videos fills me with such joy ❤

[@chrissimpson-y3p]

Amazing great to see it and the view at sunrise from the lighthouse 🥰

[@RH1812]

Nice protection detail there. Having watched Egger’s ‘The Lighthouse’ over the weekend…runaway!

[@ExploreTheWeekendUK]

What a cool little island! Definitely not on most peoples radar, but looks well worth a visit!

[@jjinwien9054]

It's a great video! Makes me want to visit Formantera, which has never occurred to me before!

[@janwhite6038]

Me too!

[@Moonstar-q4p]

Love the videos I love the smaller towns to opposed to big cities this town is a real gem fantastic lunch to love the cats ❤❤😊😊

[@JohnEdwardBerry]

A great vlog, looking forward to seeing the battle you had getting home, hopefully everyone in Scotland was OK in all the storms, here in my neck of the woods it's just been bloody hot, they reckon inland Australia can expect temps of up to 50c this week 😊😢😅❤

[@ste.h9825]

What a beautiful town & island.Cheers Steve.😊

[@maryhoward2491]

As usual Steve I'm green with envy. What a beautiful place so calm and peaceful. The lighthouse was particularly beautiful in the early morning sunlight. Looking forward to the next one. Roll on Saturday 😊

[@nadinebarnes6431]

Love the mid week video, your a joy to watch, funny, kind, informative & you seem like just a great all round human , would you ever do a Q & A?would love to know more (if not to intrusive) I think you mentioned you lived in NZ (my home) stuff like that but I would watch any of your videos thanks for all you do, much love 💕

[@KeithJones-mw6gr]

Another great video Steve. The ‘capital’ city was so clean and well looked after. The oranges on the trees in the sunshine especially delightful. Plus of course the lighthouse and windmill. I have never seen a selfie stand before! Perhaps I need to get out more. Regards from Julie and Keith🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@jenniferguthrie5031]

Tuesday treat with my coffee ☕️

[@andylane247]

Great Spanish bar for lunch. You can't go wrong when it's full of locals Steve !! That looked a proper chaps portion !!! Seems a typical nice quiet Spanish town. We could do with a bit of sun on us !!

[@Tatia146]

Oh no, now I want calamares! Beautiful island and weather. Certainly could do with some lovely warm sunny weather about now!

[@ColinSlocombe]

Nice views stevie 😊

[@ParanormalFun-i1i]

Typical finds a Los Greggs😂 Then goes on a magical mystery tour! The lighthouse was amazing and Alicja would have loved all those cats! Great video Steve

[@tommann7178]

I have been to Formentera with Steve. I have experienced the winter warmth, and the peace, not to mention the beauty of the island. Thanks a bunch Steve!! ! !

[@andydinwoodie1497]

Another great video Steve. The lighthouse looks very similar to the Formentor lighthouse on Majorca

[@frederickmuhlbauer9477]

Earthquakes on Santorini are scary We can feel them from our home in Marmaris near Rhodes

[@susannaemmerich1166]

Lovely place. I was drooling for that lunch. Thank you soooo much!!!!! Say Ola to Alijca.🎉🙃🙏👌

[@covvy]

Haha, as soon as I saw 9am-3pm I thought: "No way it'll open on the dot of 9". Island life!

[@StreakyP]

It is a sign of a chilled way of life. In Scotland we have "Highland time" which is similar... There is an old joke that there is no direct equivalent to the Spanish word manana in Gaelic as they never had need of a word for such urgency!

[@RichardFelstead1949]

I'm enjoying your travels , Steve. Greetings from Albury NSW Australia.

[@stevenweaver9753]

Would not be a Steve's video without visiting a Light house. 😃👍Great view at the end of the world. Thank you for getting up early and we all get to see the sun rise. Still not seen you visit the Bell Rock Light house yet. Just a thought. And you hunting down Calamari... So glad you found some. Would it have been funny if you found a Shell shop and google says the nearest place which sell Calamari was on Ibiza! 😆Only joking. Tuesday bonus video. Just have time for a break to watch. Thank you Steve. Safe travels and we will see you in the next one. 😃👍

[@unixbhaskar]

Oh, the bakery....food galore!!! Nice cliff at the edge of the sea ...scorching sunshine ....cool ...busking in the sun :) Aha! Oranges in the tree....lovely! Wooohoooo ....what a lunch plate ....bloody good man! Wonderful .....those plum trees ....enjoyed....thanks a bunch.

[@michaelsaayman2802]

Great video Steve thanks for the bonus video

[@alioscopy-glasses-free-3D]

Great video, Steve… you've created a successful KZbin channel and a nomadic lifestyle! Travel well, my friend - see you in the next one!

[@butchscott7227]

Hi Steve thanks for the video enjoyed the trip to the light house and the old windmill it's a beautiful island and your lunch made my mouth water 😂 can't wait to see if you get home ok take care and safe travels .

[@petracollins8623]

What a beautiful view from up there. Like the rustic setting with prickly pears

[@Christine-xq9ep]

The beaches there are like the Caribbean! Stunning. We had a tropical storm I've never been so scared in my life, but it soon passed and was back to baking xx

[@carolinegreenwell9086]

that was a gut-busting meal indeed

[@paulinemcfarlan-ug5pd]

Dark, overcast and surprise, surprise Steve's video arrives😂 Lighthouse looked very interesting,❤the cat. The town looked tidy and clean, and what a meal you had, got me in the mood for a bite to eat. Boring, just tea and toast. Thank you once again for an interesting video

[@carolgeraghty3488]

Great video Steve 😊

[@Laura-f2s9w]

Hey Steve, loved your little fur friends at the lighthouse 🥰. It is so beautiful and so laid back there 🤗

[@laurelrogers3176]

Greetings from a very soggy Sacramento! What a wonderful treat. Waking up to a beautiful sunny video that’s helping me to start my day off right 👍 Thank you for doing what you do 😎🤗😎

[@briangentle5515]

So interesting to see Formentera which I will probably never visit. Shame about the locked church, but it's more common, as people cannot be trusted any more. Always enjoy your style of presentation; I'm sure you are safely home now but will enjoy the video about it when it comes out.

[@iocat]

When you said El Faro I suddenly realize I knew the word for light house in Spanish from El Faro and El Farolito -- two amazing taquerias in San Francisco.

[@simonwhitlock9189]

Stunning as always Steve, the lighthouse and your new feline friends the towns all bright and clean, best of luck on your journey home . As always stay safe and well, cheers from Oz.

[@IamValentina66]

If you ever come to the US, come to Arizona (Grand Canyon State) never ending stuff to do. Sedona is here. Mountains, lakes, herds of wild horses, famous artists and down south , just beyond Tucson (too sahn) we have a beautiful adobe cathedral called St Xavier del bac. The pearl of the desert, several hundred years old and built in Spanish style. Lots of Native American art around the state, you could end up in Northern Arizona at Monument valley where many western were filmed.

[@janetmorgan4334]

Thanks Steve, injoyed the viedo, lunch was epic ! Good views from the lighthouse

[@alasdairmackenzie905]

Looks like a very beautiful little place Steve - thanks for taking us there.

[@AndreaDE-ep1iq]

Just the right time to arrive at the lighthouse, stunning view! But you were walking pretty close to the cliff, I shouted: be careful - to my phone, silly, I know😅. Calamares, I think I need some for lunch now, love'em! Great again video, thanks Steve!

[@singalong7649]

O wow, that morning light. What a beautiful lighthouse!

[@robertsutton8264]

Greetings from snowy(seldom) Vancouver Island, and after watching your video I got some weather relief! I was in awe of the alien looking landscapes and the haunting images you presented with the lighthouse and windmill. Don Quixote were art thou? Cats addition was satisfying and a great lunch to boot. Keep it comin' Steve. Safe flight home!

[@chillnophone2024]

Thanks for another great vlog❣️💯☮️🐈 and yes, I could live in that wee dwelling also. Was thinking the same when you said it❣️💯 💙🌞

[@Satninsatnin]

What a Beautiful wee Island the Lighthouse was smashing and great views from there. However my favourite part by far was the Windmill what a Gorgeous structure and it still looked in good shape. Thanks for sharing take care. 😎

[@MaryPothoven]

Lovely video, thank you!

[@rogatk8842]

A great video, as always Steve.

[@debdiehl415]

Steve Marsh, Cat Whisperer! We say it nearly every video, how beautiful, but today's was spectacular! My husband, lighthouse fanatic said " Oh, let's head to Nubble Light ( cape neddick maine) for a sunrise breakfast by the light, and then up to Portland Head for a sunset picnic by the sea!" Sure hubby, but we should wait a few months? We're due for and ice and snow nor'easter...lol. Thank you Steve for sharing the world with us.

[@stephentalas1940]

Fab scenery again. You and that Scooter- could be ' Fast and Furious in the Ballerics'- story of a desperate Scotsman raiding local Bakeries and hunting the elusive Callimaris !

[@hanshartfiel6394]

When I saw the windmill I was half expecting Don Quixote to turn up and start a fight. Great video, Steve.

[@biking-viking-claus-andersen]

Nice to see that the cats are being fed and looked after.

[@Garyandfiona]

Nice one Steve, was thinking or is it just me that your bus driver was a double of the picture on the monument at light house of Jules Verne 😁👍

[@steve-marsh]

Haha you’re right!!!

[@Garyandfiona]

@steve-marsh 😂👍

[@MarkoPoloCB]

Done Spain a few times and thoroughly enjoyed it, always looks so clean and fresh, even the more touristy bits, could certainly live there myself. Great vid as always Steve

[@BlueSpark-vy3fd]

Lunch looked spectacular! 👍

[@markt9531]

Just what i need... Hasnt stopped raining here on the Emerald Isle!!🙄

[@jamesrea329]

Wow in 16 minutes comments from Shetland, Australia, and now Los Angeles (me). I really should be asleep, but there’s a new Steve Marsh video! 🎉

[@fraeris68]

Thank you for a nice bonus video 👍😊

[@PhilipAlvers]

A really good video, stunning photography, warm and enlightning narration. Glad i subscribed Steve. Lucky cats looking for their grub!

[@mikewest2428]

Great video steve😂

[@eirrog]

Nice bonus for us , cheers 😊

[@louisajones3535]

Loved it ALL! Thanks so much 🎉

[@Tripreporternet]

Hola Steve, super interesting to follow you´re Balearic adventures. The Faro de la Mola is also new to me. Such a nice place with lot´s of gato´s/cat´s!. Well done et Hasta Luego, Markus

[@lindashoemaker8940]

Mornin Steve epic island the visuals are warming me up won’t be warm when you arrive in Montrose from New Jersey 😘☕️🦎🐈🐈‍⬛

[@hjkroeze]

Nice to see Formentera again Steve, but I didn't recognise any of it anymore. Could it be because I was there 55 years ago??? 😊😊😊

[@janwhite6038]

Loved the museum.

[@michaelorr9107]

You just reminded me of our trip to Portugal last Spring when we visited Cabo da Roca , Westernmost point of Europe. You did it again!!!! Another 1st. Although after doing these things the rest is such an anticlimax 😮🎉

[@brianhall3586]

Guard cats 🤣 love it

[@katiestuart764]

Yes when you go there again take some cat treats. I am so glad the cats at the light house were being fed. That makes me very happy.

[@pamchurcher8833]

Lovely video again Steve I also think you should carry cat treats as they seem to like you.❤❤❤

[@jimmcintosh9045]

Avoided calamari when I ate it thinking it was onion rings! Had a walk to a lighthouse North of Portinatx in Ibiza. The footpath was a bit disjointed and rough but the lighthouse was tall and impressive.

[@Newfoundmindset2.0]

Wow Steve now that's a shot

[@andylane247]

You're as bad as me Marshy !!! I've got a habit of identifying high flying jets as well !! Cracking video again.

[@bdxfhsf]

I noticed there were no major chain stores or cafe's on this Island!? I was a little expecting a Costa coffee or mini Mac's in the town centre. I assume they do not allow major chains which is obviously very good for local trade. A very pleasant and tranquil place to visit based on this footage so Great upload again :) Another place I was not fully aware of, too 😎 Thanks Steve

[@scotbotvideos]

At 5:30 they made this into a cracking, if not somewhat brutal in places, film called The Lighthouse At the Edge of the World starring Kirk Douglas and Yul Brynner. Great adventure as always, Steve. I wonder if the island is suitable for a multiday thruhike exploration, seeing as how you made it seem so easy to get there.

[@annasutton8078]

Oh goody, something to watch at lunch time. This reminded me of our time in Almeria. Rural scenes, cats, scrubby land. I thought there was no chance of finding calamari. It looked pretty good, not out of the freezer. We are so polite when speaking Spanish. Where I lived no one said please or thank you. I guess to Spanish ears it sounds weird..

[@kathrynmcintosh2726]

Hello watching from Perth Western Australia 🦘🌏🦢🌞

[@philhoultby]

I'd love to see you take a look around Helgioland. Ferry out, Islander back. Right up your street!
