Balearic Islands archipelago island, smaller and quieter than Mallorca — UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and the Camí de Cavalls (a 185km coastal trail circling the island). Maó (the capital, with the world's second-deepest natural harbor) and Ciutadella (the western quieter old capital) are the walkable cores. Same Spain DNV (€2,762/mo, 1-year + 3-year extension); Schengen. The structural draws are dramatic cala-beach geography (50+ named coves), a meaningfully quieter alternative to Mallorca, and the Camí de Cavalls long-distance trail. Summer tourist density is real June-September; off-season is calm.

Editorial estimates. Not financial advice. The 4% rule is a planning anchor, not a guarantee — sequence-of-returns risk and tax-jurisdiction friction (US-LLC / FEIE / state residency) can move the real number meaningfully. See our expat tax directory for the cross-border side of the math.
