Mallorca is a sun-kissed slice of paradise where sandy beaches meet rugged mountains, and every corner is bursting with flavor and charm!
Here's a small sampling of the things you can do in the area.
EAT & DRINK
When in Palma de Mallorca, be sure to try ensaïmada, the island’s signature pastry—a soft, sweet spiral that’s perfect with a café con leche. For a savory bite, sobrasada is a must—this spreadable, slightly spicy sausage pairs beautifully with fresh bread. If you’re in the mood for seafood, arròs brut, a hearty rice meaty dish. And to finish, sip on hierbas mallorquinas, a traditional herbal liqueur that’s both refreshing and aromatic, perfect for a laid-back evening in the Mediterranean breeze.
OLD TOWN
In Palma’s Old Town, start with La Seu Cathedral, an awe-inspiring Gothic masterpiece that dominates the skyline. Nearby, explore the Palau de l’Almudaina, a historic royal palace blending Moorish and Gothic styles. Wander through the Arab Baths, a quiet, hidden gem that offers a glimpse into the city’s Moorish past. As you stroll the cobblestone streets, you’ll find charming plaças like Plaça Major, lined with cafés perfect for people-watching. And don’t miss the Can Forteza Rey, a modernist building with colorful mosaics that add a touch of whimsy to the historic streets.
BEACHES
For a beach day around Palma, start with Platja D’illetes, just a short drive from the city, offering a lively vibe and a perfect spot to soak up the sun. If you’re looking for something longer and more bustling, head to Platja de Muro, a golden stretch lined with restaurants and bars. For a more relaxed experience, Platja de s’oratori offers crystal-clear waters and an upscale, intimate atmosphere. If you prefer something a bit more hidden, Cala Comtessa is a peaceful gem with turquoise waters, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. And for those up for a scenic drive, Es Trenc awaits with its wild, untouched beauty and Caribbean-like waters.
