Things to do

Majorca

Memorable moment...

Let a floating orchestra serenade you in the depths of the spectacular Caves of Drach, as musicians in light-strewn boats glide across the underground lake.

Things to do

Lose yourself in Palma's cobbled lanes, discovering the striking Almudaina Palace and the Gothic cathedral, La Seu, which Gaudí helped restore. Descend into the island's famous Caves of Drach, with their stalactites and stalagmites. Escape the hustle and bustle of the livelier resorts with a visit to the historic town of Pollensa to climb the 365 Calvario steps. Take the breathtaking drive to Formentor's soaring heights, at Majorca's northernmost tip. Hire a bike or go trekking on horseback to uncover the island's natural beauty.

Beaches

Majorca is blessed with beaches, and if you look away from the main resorts you may find some less crowded shores, like at Playa Trenc and Cala San Vicente

If you’re just looking for gorgeous water, soft sandy beaches and somewhere to soak up the sun, there’s plenty of choice. The best beaches are in Palma Nova, Magaluf, Alcudia and Cala d’Or.

You’ll be able to test out watersports, sip drinks and have a bite to eat in the nearby bars and restaurants and enjoy the calm water on the main resorts’ beaches while on holiday in Majorca.

Highlights

  • Enjoying beautiful views across the Mediterranean from Cap de Formentor, where you can sometimes spot Menorca in the distance
  • Taking a relaxed wander through the pretty streets of the island’s capital, Palma, which has lots of designer shops to distract you from the pretty sights.
  • Catching a dolphin show and say hi to the animals at the brilliant Marineland in Costa d’en Blanes, with parrots, penguins and sharks with big teeth!
  • Checking out the beautiful Gothic Cathedral in Palma, which rises above the harbour and looks truly spectacular
  • Riding the waves of fun at Aqualand, in Magaluf, where the rides are as thrilling as they sound: Bomerang, Tornado and Kamikazes!
  • Seeing one of the island’s most popular sights, Coves del Drac, while on holiday in Majorca. Here you’ll discover the cave’s history and take in the beautiful limestone rocks
  • Grabbing your clubs on the island’s brilliant golf courses, it doesn’t matter if you’re the next Tiger Woods or swinging a club for the first time, there’s a great choice of courses
  • Partying hard in Magaluf, a resort that’s got legendary status among partygoers for its lively vibe, and its neighbour, Palma Nova, is no party pooper either
  • Relaxing on sandy beaches in Magaluf, Ca’n Picafort and Alcudia, to name a few, it’s easy to chill out on holiday in Majorca

Food and drink

Like the residents of other Mediterranean islands, Majorcans tend to eat a lot of fish and seafood. Other popular dishes include Sobrasada, a pork based sausage; tapas, paella and salads.

There are restaurants serving traditional Spanish foods in the big resorts, like Palma Nova, but there are a lot more international places, serving all your favourites from Chinese to Italian.

Top

Evening Flavour

Good nightlife can be found easily around Palma but, if you really want to party like it’s 1999, there’s really only one place and that’s Magaluf. This resort and Palma Nova, which is right next to it, is where all the serious party antics happen, with loads of bars and clubs. Elsewhere in Majorca, the nightlife is much more low-key with bars and family entertainment.

One of the most popular shows in Magaluf is Pirates’ Adventure, a famous show, where you can eat, drink and watch the pirates perform acrobatics, gymnastics and dancing. If you’re brave enough, check out Pirates Uncut, which is the adults’ version of the show; shiver me timbers.

Top

Shopping

Palma has some fantastic shops selling designer brands, as well as boutique shops selling exclusive clothing. Porto Pi is a large shopping mall on the west side of Palma and also sells all the big names.

Outside of Palma, Festival Park is a big factory outlet selling most things at cut prices. In Inca, there’s a market every week selling lots of products, especially leather. If you’re after ceramics and pottery, head to Marratxi, the heart of Majorca’s pottery industry.

Dates for the Diary

On June 24th in Palma is the Nit de Foc, which means Night of Fire, where fireworks and bonfires light up the sky in a spectacular show.

Top

For the Family

  • Cheering on the buccaneers at The Pirates’ Adventure show in Magaluf is a great show for the whole family, just check you’re not walking into the adult’s show first!
  • Treating the family to a day out at Aqualand waterpark, where there are loads of fun ways to get wet
  • Visiting Marineland for a top day out for the whole family, with dolphin shows, a penguinarium, parrots and sharks
