These are probably the most important European peninsulas.:

Scandinavian peninsula (Norway, Sweden, ...)

Iberian peninsula (Spain, Portugal)

Italian peninsula (Italy)

Balkan peninsula (Greece, etc.)

The exact extent of peninsulas is not very well defined. Does the Scandinavian peninsula include Finland? Does it include the Kola peninsula (in Russia)? I don't think there is a clear answer to such questions. The Pyrenees mountains make a convenient boundary for the Iberian peninsula, and the Alps for the Italian peninsula, but these definitions are still debatable, and Scandinavian and Balkan peninsulas are even less well-defined.
