Ibiza

Area: 541 sq.km/209 sq.mi

Population: 71,000

Two gently rounded ranges of hills with generally smooth contours traverse the north and south of Ibiza, the largest of the Islas Pityusas, with a maximum length of 48km/30mi and a maximum breadth of 24km/15mi. The southern range, with Atalayasa de San José (476m/1,562ft) as its highest point, is higher than the northern range, which is broken up by a number of depressions. The two ranges are separated by a swathe of lower land extending across the island from west to northeast. The southern tip of the island is occupied by a wide alluvial plain.
