The windmill will open for public visits until the end of May, Wednesday to Saturday from 10.00am to 2.00pm, closed holidays, while the FEC will open year round (except holidays and for staff leave), Tuesday to Saturday from 10.00am to 1.30pm. As part of Covid-19 safety protocol in place, capacity at both sites is capped at 6, with the FEC additionally requiring all multiple visitors be from the same household.

This winter, the Formentera heritage office teamed up with the windmill’s owner, the Balearic Islands Foundation, to restore sails and assorted parts of the structure. Last year both parties signed an agreement giving local government direct control over opening hours and visits for the next six years.
