The larger group located off the northeast coast of Spain are the Balearic Islands and they are an Autonomous Region of Spain, composing Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza.

There are three Spanish islands located near Morocco named Islas Chafarinas, Penon de Alhucemas, and Penon de Velez de la Gomera. They are collectively referred to as Places of Sovereignty (Plazas de Soberania).

The Canary Islands are located in the Atlantic Ocean closer to Africa than to Spain. They too, are an Autonomous Region of Spain.
