There's a tackle shop on Avenida de Palacios, Formentera. They can get one for you and I believe you have to take your passport with you (it is Spain, after all).

From Spain Info, looks like it's not an easy thing to do:
FISHING LICENCES FISHING LICENSES
A regional fishing licence, or rod licence, (permiso/licencia de pesca) is required to fish both inland and sea waters in Spain. The permit should specify if it is for a “catch and release” (sin meurte) area.
For those not holding a foreign fishing licence, a Spanish licence can be obtained from the Ministerio de Medio Ambiente. Applicants must pass an exam in Spanish before being granted a licence. After the exam, it takes over a month to receive the results and permit.
Holders of an existing foreign licence will not be required to take an exam in Spanish and may obtain a fishing licence online from Telelicencia. (google this they keep changing the page address)
