Step into the heart of Formentera's capital, Sant Francesc Xavier, where you'll find our 18th-century church standing proud and whitewashed in the main square. It's more than just a place of worship; its sturdy walls and high windows tell tales of a time when it doubled as a fortress, protecting the island from pirates. After you've soaked in the peaceful interior, wander out into the lively plaza. Here, you can browse the local market, relax at a café, and on some summer evenings, even enjoy live jazz under the stars.
