🏝️ Isla Mayor (Murcia)

Isla Mayor is a Spanish island located almost at the center of the Mar Menor, in the municipality of San Javier in the Region of Murcia. As its name indicates, it is the largest island both in that inland sea and in the entire Murcian region. It is an extinct volcanic cone, which gives the island its distinctive conical shape and roughly circular perimeter. The island is private property. It takes the name Isla del Barón from the Barón de Benifayó, who built a Neo-Mudéjar-style palace on the island, known as "the baron’s house."
