White Lines has premiered on Netflix, introducing viewers to an intoxicating story of hedonism, danger and corruption set in the UK and Ibiza.
A co-production between the UK and Spain, the show stars Laura Haddock as Zoe Walker, who travels to the White Isle to investigate the fictional murder of her brother Axel, who disappeared 20 years prior.
Written by Money Heist showrunner Alex Pina, the drama utilises the beautiful sunshine and clear water of the Balearics.
While we won’t be travelling to these places any time soon, here’s a breakdown of White Lines’ filming locations, which you can save for travel research further down the track...
The Balearic Islands
As the series is set in Ibiza, many scenes utilise the beautiful sunshine of the Balearic Islands.
The series showcases the lush tropical settings, as Zoe investigates the seedy underbelly of the party-oriented lifestyle in the popular vacation destination.
The larger island of Mallorca is used a number of times in the series. The exterior of the key nightclub in the series is on the seafront road of Palma in Mallorca.
Meanwhile, Marcus' (Daniel Mays) house is a house in Cala D’or, a small town on the east coast of Mallorca.
The place where Zoe’s brother Axel’s body is found is the arid Tabernas Desert, near Almeria in Southern Spain.
The Tabernas Desert has historically been a top filming location for spaghetti Westerns and other films recreating the cowboy genre.
The only true desert in Europe, film crews have utilised its landscapes since the 1950s, and its cinematic history is a significant draw for tourism in the area.
Madrid
Meanwhile, the interior of the nightclub is actually filmed in Madrid.
Bolton
A portion of the action of White Lines takes place in Manchester, where Zoe is based, and filming took place in the town of Bolton, Greater Manchester.
Eustace Street is where Axel and the boys are seen chatting ahead of their court appearance in season two, while Zoe’s dad Clint’s house is a residence on Woodgate Street.
Manchester
A number of phone calls with Zoe’s mother Jenny were taped in Catalan Square, making use of Manchester’s canals.
Meanwhile, the illegal warehouse rave where Axel DJs was shot at Mayfield Depot in Baring Street, Manchester.
