Cabrera is an island 15 km south of Mallorca, the largest of the Cabrera Archipelago, and the only one you can land on. The archipelago and a broad swath of the surrounding Mediterranean are a national park and have no permanent inhabitants, though several dozen rangers, coastguards and support staff are stationed on Cabrera. It's nominally administered from Palma city but that's just because the park offices are in the capital.
Only registered vessels may enter the park, with prior uploads of the passports of all aboard - this is a busy smuggling and human-trafficking route from North Africa.
