Sunny country, or where you can relax in Spain? Mallorca, Barcelona, ​​Seville, Tenerife - where is the best place to relax in Spain? Where is it better to relax: Barcelona or Mallorca? Which of the tour operators makes barcelona mallorca.

Mediterranean Europe is an absolutely stunning travel destination. On the one hand, it is an opportunity to visit European cities and see the sights, and on the other hand, pay tribute to the beach holiday. Agree that if you are traveling for 2 weeks, then such a program will most likely appeal to all participants in the trip.

Today we will talk about how to plan a similar trip to Spain, and more specifically, we will consider the route Barcelona - Mallorca, combining two of the most popular places in Spain.

In terms of popularity among our compatriots, Spain has long been in the top three along with Turkey and Bulgaria. And no wonder, the Spanish coast is famous for its beaches. In 2012, Spain ranked 1st in terms of the number of Blue Flags received, a quality mark awarded annually to the best beaches in the world.

Spanish beaches stretch along the entire coast from Barcelona to Malaga. When buying a ticket, our tourist usually naively believes that having settled somewhere in the Tarragona region, he will easily visit all the interesting things that are in Catalonia, and at the same time drive him to Valencia - they say, how much that Spain is there!

Don't fool yourself. After the first tiring (2 hours by train, a whole day on foot in the heat in the city and 2 hours back) excursion to Barcelona, ​​you will say that well, these sights to hell, we’d better lie down on the beach. Or, if we really want to see something, we will buy an excursion from a tour operator - they will pick it up, take it, bring it back. Expensive, but not so hard, especially for children.

As a result, instead of a trip to Europe, you, in fact, get the same Turkey, but with a Spanish accent. It's a shame.

Planning a trip to Spain

In order not to be “excruciatingly painful” for the money spent and lost impressions, we will try to refuse to buy a tour and plan the trip ourselves. We will omit the technical details about, and, - our other articles are devoted to these issues, but let's talk about how to combine a full-fledged excursion program in Barcelona with an equally complete beach holiday.

First, we are looking for a hotel in the city. Do not try to kill two birds with one stone, arguing that 20-30 minutes on the train is nonsense. Not nonsense! Even if the trip is very short, it is psychologically difficult to make several trips a day, which means that you will go to Barcelona as if you were going to work - there in the morning, back in the evening - do you need it? Trust me, it makes a big difference. If you know that at any time you can return to the hotel to change, relax, leave your shopping bag - you never know! - this allows you to relax, not to check the train schedule and not put an end to night events. To select a hotel in Barcelona, ​​you can use the hotel map below:

If you are going to Spain for a week, then take 2 days to walk around Barcelona. Devote another 2 days to long-distance excursions - to the Montserrat Monastery, to Girona and Figueres or to Port Aventura. Special tourist buses run there regularly from Barcelona, ​​and it is more convenient to get to Port Aventura by train. After the trip, return to the hotel, relax, have dinner, walk around the evening city.

Do not rush to the beach - the second half of your holiday will be devoted to the sea.

From Barcelona to Mallorca

Of the more than 500 Blue Flags received by Spain, 40 belong to the beaches of Mallorca - a solid contribution to the country's reputation, isn't it? Mallorca's beaches are really good: white sand, palm trees and crystal clear water. No wonder holidays in Mallorca are considered prestigious, and its 5-star hotels are often chosen by stars and celebrities for holidays.

Again, we will provide you with the choice of a hotel in Mallorca. And there is plenty to choose from, the whole island is a huge resort. You can live in the city or you can choose beach hotel, but given that the "urban" part of the trip has already taken place, we would recommend a hotel on the coast. By the way, many of them work on an all-inclusive basis. To select a hotel in Mallorca, you can use the hotel map below:

How to get from Barcelona to Mallorca? There is a ferry from Barcelona - it's 6-7 hours on the way and 60-70 euros one way. In our opinion, it is long and expensive, so we recommend flying by plane. There are many flights, the choice is large.

One of the airlines serving this route is the Spanish low-cost carrier Vueling (Vueling or Vueling, as we often call it). They make from 5 to 9 flights a day, starting from 7 am to 10 pm. Fly from Barcelona to Mallorca in 50 minutes.

Since Vyuling is a low-cost airline, be prepared for the fact that you will have to pay extra for choosing a seat in the cabin (if this is important for you) and limit your luggage to 23 kilograms. You will also need to pay extra for checking in luggage, and it’s cheaper to do it online; for checking in luggage at the airport, they charge 35 euros. But as hand luggage, you can take a bag or suitcase weighing 10 kg into the cabin.

As usual, minor payment troubles common to all low-cost airlines are compensated by an excellent price for a flight: the most cheap airfare Barcelona - Mallorca will cost 35 euros one way. For large families (from 3 children) Vueling provides a 5% discount.

You can buy tickets from Barcelona to Mallorca on the official website of Vueling Airlines: . The site is Russified.

By the way, Vueling offers both direct flights from Domodedovo to Palma de Mallorca, and not expensive tickets to Barcelona.

Have a nice holiday in Spain!

I travel and write about travel. I don’t use the services of travel agencies, I don’t like sights that everyone “must visit”, I don’t talk about “resorts with developed infrastructure”. I share my experience on how to travel on my own.

Ancient quarters, interesting museums, iridescent mosaics, Mediterranean cuisine, gorgeous beaches - these are just some of the reasons why you should visit Spain!
As always, my husband and I planned our trip to Spain long before the trip and, of course, on our own. We have not used the services of travel agencies for a long time, as we prefer to develop routes and choose hotels ourselves. Yes, and preparing for the next trip is an extremely exciting thing.
This was our first trip to Spain (usually we choose Asian countries). But this time we were practically persuaded to choose Spain, and we did not regret it. Warm sea, amazing beautiful landscapes, an abundance of fruits, cheeses and jamon, as well as the friendliness of the local population made our stay excellent.

Barcelona


Barcelona

Tickets were bought a few months before departure. The choice was this: either expensive tickets for a direct flight from St. Petersburg to Barcelona, ​​or cheap tickets with transfers. We are not looking for easy ways, besides we travel quite often, so we chose tickets through Helsinki and with a transfer in Riga. AirBaltic airline tickets came out cheap (about 15,000 rubles per person in both directions with a flight from Helsinki), but they had their limitations: luggage was paid separately (we flew with hand luggage), and you had to register online. If you do not check in online, you will have to pay additional fees when you check in at the airport. Hotels in Mallorca were booked almost six months in advance, since in the summer good hotels There is a very high demand here.


Embankment

Travel itinerary to Spain

Two weeks flew by. Five days were allotted for Barcelona. We did not try to cover as much as possible in one trip to Barcelona. Indeed, in the Catalan capital there are so many interesting places: cathedrals, basilicas, monuments, beautiful squares and narrow streets! And I want to consider everything, without hurrying anywhere. In addition, the suburbs of Barcelona: Figueres, Girona, Sitges - also attract tourists from all over the world.
For the first visit, we determined that we definitely want to visit the Gothic Quarter, see the Sagrada Familia by the great architect Antoni Gaudí, climb Mount Montjuic, walk along the main Las Ramblas, look at the Boqueria market and, of course, visit one of the most popular parks in the world entertainment - PortAventura.


Most of all, I like to combine a dynamic vacation in big cities and tranquility in one trip. beach holiday. This time we chose the Spanish pearl - Mallorca, and managed to live on two opposite parts of the island. So, first things first!


Spanish market

The trip was strictly planned by day, and we did not deviate from the plan. Briefly describing our journey, here is what happens:
1 day: departure to Finland. Since we have a Finnish Schengen, a trip through Finland was beneficial for us (we didn’t have to go there specially). So, early in the morning we took a bus from St. Petersburg to Helsinki Airport (we ordered a transfer). On an evening flight we flew from Helsinki to Riga. We had to spend 6 hours at the Riga airport, during which time we had dinner and even slept a little. In the morning we were already in Barcelona, ​​tired, but with the anticipation of a great holiday.
2 day: Barcelona met us with great weather! In the afternoon we checked into an apartment booked in advance on booking.com. Despite being tired, after checking in, we immediately went for a walk around the city. And the first sight on our way was the Sagrada Familia.


Sagrada Familia

Then we went for a walk along the famous Rambla, looked into the shops along the way, visited the old Boqueria market. And already late in the evening we managed to go to the Arena shopping center.


Arena in Barcelona

3 day spent in the amusement park Port Aventura and the water park. And it was a very emotional day!


Port Aventura

Day 4 We didn't plan it ahead of time. We just went for a walk in the city center. And we found an amazing place - Citadel Park.


Barcelona

Walked along the old streets gothic quarter and, of course, could not pass by the Picasso Museum.


Picasso Museum

Day 5 On a morning flight, we flew from Barcelona to a heavenly place - Mallorca. We took a taxi to the hotel, located at the westernmost point of the island. Sant Elm - picturesque and quiet place for a beach holiday.
6, 7, and 8 days we spent at the beautiful hotel Universal Aquamarin & Aquavilla. The main attractions of Sant Elma - beautiful beach, walks through several streets and amazing cuisine in the hotel.


Day 9 In the morning we packed up and took a taxi to the eastern part of the island of Mallorca - the small town of Porto Colom. Here is located popular with tourists sand beach Cala Marsal.
9 - 11 days we lived in the JS Cape Colom hotel, located among the picturesque cliffs. His calling card is an observation platform on the top floor, from where a breathtaking view opens. The hotel has an all-inclusive system, but the kitchen was not at all pleased. But I was very pleased with the presence of a good tennis court, the use of which was included in the price. Please note that this hotel is adults only. And rightly so, since the beach near the hotel is very peculiar, entering the sea is by stairs from a cliff.
Day 12 In the morning we moved to a hotel in the capital of the island - Palma de Mallorca. Here we spent only a day. On the first day we saw the main sights of the city - Cathedral and the central square, as well as Bellver Castle.


Day 13 Walked in the morning main square Palma de Mallorca, devoted a couple of hours to shopping. After lunch we flew to Barcelona. We spent a romantic evening in Barcelona in one of the restaurants in the Gothic Quarter.


Seafood in Spain at every turn

Day 14 The last full day in Barcelona was very eventful. In the morning we went to the Laberinte d'Orta park, located next to the hotel where we were staying.


Barcelona

Then we went to the center, planned to visit the great creation of Gaudi - Casa Batllo. But due to the huge queue, we postponed his visit until the next trip to Spain. Instead, on cable car got to the famous castle of Montjuic, admired the beauty National Museum art of Catalonia, walked around Olympic village, and even had lunch in the cafe of the Olympic stadium.



Barcelona Olympic Park

Also on this day we saw Spain in miniature at Poble Espanyol. This so-called Spanish village was actually just a large cluster of overpriced outlets and restaurants.


spanish village

We spent the evening, of course, in our already beloved Gothic Quarter.
Day 15 In the morning we stocked up on cheese / jamon in the shops closest to the hotel. In the evening we flew to Riga. It turned out that on this very day - August 13 - Riga celebrates the day of the city. We hardly found our small hotel, had a delicious dinner at a local restaurant (the food seemed insanely delicious to us compared to Spanish). We did not go to the square to watch the fireworks, as we were tired and did not want to freeze.
Day 16 In the morning we walked along the central streets of Riga, looked at all the disgrace that was happening on the streets after the celebration of the city day. After lunch we flew to Helsinki, from where we finally got to St. Petersburg by evening bus.

Prices in Spain

Holidays in Spain left a lot of positive emotions. What I especially liked was the general goodwill and openness of the Spaniards. And their language is just music to my ears! I even wanted to learn it in order to understand not only the well-known ones - “gracias”, “ola”, “buenos dias”, etc.


Barcelona from the observation deck

Of course, during the trip, we involuntarily compared holidays in Spain with Asian countries that we managed to visit. And everywhere there are pluses and minuses. The biggest disadvantage of Spain are enough high prices for food, transportation, souvenirs, excursions. But it's all in comparison! But the pledge have a good travel- do not compare with the previous holiday. But when planning an independent trip to Spain, take more money! The average bill in a cafe is 30-60 Euros for two without alcohol, a taxi around the city is 10-20 Euros, entrance tickets, for example, to Aventura Park - 47 Euros per person.

A little about food

The only thing we were a little disappointed in Spain was the local food. Perhaps because of too high expectations. Before the trip, we read that Spanish cuisine can be considered one of the main attractions of the country, it is so good. We had lunch and dinner in many restaurants of different price ranges, from cheap cafes to a famous restaurant in Mallorca. But they didn't enjoy it much. Paella, gazpacho, tapas (various appetizers), chorizo ​​- it's all, of course, delicious! But after a few days, I want something completely different. This does not apply to our beloved brie cheese, jamon and, of course, sangria!


Spanish salad

When it comes to holidays in Mallorca, here everyone can find something to their liking. Either a quiet beach holiday and an evening promenade along the local streets (as, for example, in Sant Elm), or unbridled fun for young people in the Arenal resort.
In a short travel time, we saw a large number of sights of Barcelona, ​​rested on the famous island Spain and even managed to see Riga a little. We will start our next trip to Spain from Madrid, and then we would like to see Seville, Zaragoza, Valencia, and the island of Tenerife. But even in Barcelona, ​​we didn’t see all the sights, besides, we want to visit the Port Aventura amusement park again.

Thousands of tourists from year to year choose Spain for a long-awaited vacation with the whole family. Before them the question arises: where is it better to relax? Fabulous Barcelona beckons with its Gothic buildings, museums and shops. Mallorca teases with beautiful landscapes, beaches, nature reserves and ancient castles. To make a choice, you need to know about the features of recreation in these resort centers in Spain.

The first thing that comes to mind at the mention of Barcelona is the famous architectural monuments this city. Sagrada Familia (Sagrada Familia) became the life work of Antonio Gaudi, who declared a taboo to straight lines in architecture. Besides grand structure there are many other creations of his in Barcelona. They forever changed its appearance and made it unlike any other European city.

But in the capital of Mallorca, Palma, there are also unique buildings in the Gothic style. The Cathedral also did not go unnoticed by Gaudí during its reconstruction. The appearance of Palma was affected by the influence of the Arabs. A vivid example of this is the fortress of Almudaina.

History buffs will love Barcelona. It has many museums: historical, military, art. Many of them are located in medieval buildings. There are also favorites for tourists: the Gaudi Museum, Picasso, the Egyptian Museum, the Spanish Village complex.

Palma also has museums. Some are located in private medieval houses. Urban historical Museum located in the only round Gothic palace in Europe, Bellver.

If architectural sights are more to the liking of adults and teenagers, then little travelers will like the aquarium in Barcelona. Thanks to the tunnel through the huge Oceanarium, you can see the life of underwater inhabitants from the inside.

In the vicinity of Barcelona there are 8 water parks, the nearest one is 30 minutes away. They have entertainment and attractions for all ages, both for adults and children.

Mallorca also boasts the presence of several water parks, there is also a zoo, an aquarium.
Beach holidays are the main goal of many tourists. Barcelona has many beaches for relaxing family vacation, and for youth with noisy discos. In most cases, they are crowded, have a developed infrastructure for entertainment and games.

More than 80 in Mallorca white sandy beaches with turquoise water. They encircle the island around the perimeter. In most cases this sandy beaches, there are calm bays, protected from waves and wind. The most popular among young people and surfers is Magaluf with its wild nightlife and discos. For families with children more suitable: Palma Nova with a gentle entrance to the sea, Paguera, Santa Ponsa, Alcudia, Cala d'Or.

Mallorca is one of largest islands, which are part of Spain, located on the Balearic archipelago in the middle mediterranean sea. I believe that this is truly a heavenly place where you can enjoy picturesque landscapes, clean beaches and forget about all everyday problems.

This small island, whose area is only 3.5 thousand square kilometers, is a little different from the resorts of Spain we are used to, and all because in its entire long history it managed to be at the disposal of the Phoenicians, Romans, and of course, the Arabs. Therefore, the culture here is really very rich!

My acquaintance with this wonderful island began with its capital - Palma de Mallorca. It is here that all its main attractions are concentrated.

As soon as I left the airport, I was struck by a long palm avenue that led arriving tourists to the parking lot. Palm trees there are truly majestic, the size of three-story houses! You look and do not believe your eyes that just 4 hours ago you were in a gray rainy city, and now you are already among such beauty!

And when you drive directly into the capital itself, your eyes begin to run wide. You look to the left - a turquoise sea, you look to the right - a majestic cathedral, and right in front of you - high mountains.

Here you want to photograph absolutely everything, so I advise you to free up memory on your phone, tablet and camera in advance, because you will constantly have a desire to capture this or that place!

How to get there

There are two modes of transport to get to Mallorca: air and water.

By far, the most commonly used and comfortable option is air. In the island's capital, Palma, international Airport, from where every half an hour take off and where the liners of various European airlines land just as often.

As for water communication, Palma has the main port of the island, where ships from various parts of Spain arrive daily, which is very convenient for tourists who spend most of their time relaxing on the mainland, for example, in Barcelona or Valencia, and go on an excursion to Palm.

You can get around the island by bus, car or train.

By plane

The main and only airport of the island, which bears the name Son San Joan , located 8 kilometers from the capital of Palma de Mallorca. It is here that both external and domestic flights. The airport has a very good connection with various European countries, including Russia.

Flights from Moscow

There are direct flights to Mallorca from Moscow (Domodedovo Airport): S7 airlines, the average cost of a round-trip ticket is 20 thousand rubles. In addition, you can fly to the island by flights with one or more transfers, which are operated by the Spanish airline Iberia also from Domodedovo Airport for the same price (about 20 thousand rubles). It is worth noting that there are several other European airlines that carry transfers to Palma, for example:

  • Finnair;
  • Lufthansa;
  • Swiss;
  • Czech Airlines;

But then the flight time will be more than 20 hours, which is completely inconvenient and not worth the money. Therefore, I advise you to choose a direct flight!

In this case, the travel time will be only 4.5 hours, so I recommend not saving on tickets and not spending the whole day on endless transfers.

You can compare prices yourself, for example,.

How to get from the airport to the city

You can get from the airport to the city center either by bus or by taxi.

Definitely the cheapest option is the bus. Routes No. 1 and No. 17 constantly run here, which will take you to Palma for only 3 €. If you need to resort town Arenal, then bus number 21 leaves from here directly to its center.

But a taxi will cost much more - the average cost of the trip will be 20 €, and if you are traveling in a group, you can order a minivan for 40 €.

In addition, you can rent a car directly at the airport, there are a wide range of car rental companies (Hertz, Avis, Europcar). The average rental price starts from 50 € per day. Details below.

By ferry

So, the second way to get to Mallorca is to sail from another part of Spain by ferry or by high-speed catamaran. The latter depart daily to the island directly from:

  • Barcelona (4.5 hours drive)
  • Valencia (4-6 hours drive),
  • Menorca (2.5 hours drive),
  • Ibiza (3 hours drive)

The average ticket price is 40 € and depends on the features of the vessel.

How to get from the port to the center

The port of Palma de Mallorca is located 6 kilometers from the city center, if you wish and are in good physical condition, you can walk to the center from there along the promenade, enjoying beautiful views and a light breeze, or take bus number 1 for only 1.5 €.

The bus stop is next to the port. Of course, you can catch a taxi and get to the Cathedral (the trip will cost 10 €).

When is the season. When is the best time to go

According to local residents, the island of Mallorca opens up to tourists in all its glory at the end of spring and continues to please the eye until mid-autumn. This is the best time to relax!

As for winter, the Spaniards believe that in given time years, their life becomes very calm, quiet and even a little boring. Although the weather here is favorable in winter (about +14 ° C), there is absolutely nothing to do. Because you won’t lie down on the beach, you won’t swim, and you won’t enjoy seasonal fruits and vegetables. Therefore, it is not worth going to Mallorca in the low season (that is, from November to March). The only tourists on the island at this time there are employees of companies who arrange business meetings, trainings or business trips here.

Mallorca in summer

Like all resorts, Mallorca is especially beautiful in summer. It is at this time of the year that the air and water temperatures reach their maximum and all the most beautiful flowers and shrubs of the island bloom everywhere. By the way, it was in Mallorca that I noticed a very large number of those flowering evergreens, and this cannot but please the eye!

Of course, summer (especially July) is also a vacation time, so there are a lot of tourists here, in fact, like everywhere else. But since Mallorca is still an island and holidays on it are not cheap, wealthy Europeans love to come here most of all, and most often those who are over 35, or young families with children. It is believed that holidays in Mallorca are quite calm and the pace of life is measured, so all young people who prefer nightclubs to evening boat trips go on neighboring island, Ibiza. But at the same time, it cannot be said that Mallorca is a remote place suitable only for pensioners: here you can also have fun and actively relax. But the most important treasure of the island is the incredible beauty of nature! Such landscapes as here, you will not see anywhere else!

By the way, the climate here is very pleasant, in summer the air temperature reaches around +30 °C, and in winter - +15 °C. But unfortunately, there is nothing to do in Mallorca in winter. Locals say that at this time of the year they have a lull. In fact, the island is inhabited by about a million people, so at a time when all the tourists go home, the island becomes empty and almost deserted. Residents quietly go about their daily business, and nothing special happens here. Therefore, I do not advise you to go here in winter, although if you are tired of the bustle and noise of the city, then here you can definitely be alone with yourself and nature. No wonder it is here that the residence of the Spanish royal family is located! Celebrities such as Claudia Schiffer, Michael Douglas and Gwyneth Paltrow also bought villas in Mallorca. Since Mallorca has pleased the pretentious taste of the stars of the first magnitude, then you will definitely like it too!

Mallorca in autumn

The beginning of autumn in Mallorca is considered the velvet season, so until the end of September you can enjoy bright sun and warm sea. But since October, the sun sets at 7 pm, and it becomes noticeably colder, the temperature reaches + 7–8 ° C.

Even in the period from late October to early November, rains and thunderstorms become more frequent on the island. Therefore, at this time it is no longer worth relaxing in Mallorca.

Mallorca in spring

In the spring in Mallorca, the high season gradually begins, already in March - April the air temperature reaches + 20–23 ° C, the warm pleasant sun shines, and flowers begin to bloom. At this time, you can’t swim yet, but you can already take sunbaths.

In spring, the island is good because there are still few tourists here, and you can spend a quiet relaxing holiday.

Mallorca in winter

Winter in Mallorca is a time of complete silence and serenity. Here the sun often shines, and snow falls only in the mountains, it rarely reaches the lowlands. December is considered the month of rains, but January and February are characterized by pleasant comfortable weather. average temperature during the day it reaches +14–15 °C.

The only caveat is that it is very boring here in winter, and this is the favorite time of the year for pensioners to relax.

What are the prices for holidays

As I mentioned earlier, holidays on the island of Mallorca can be classified as luxury, and therefore here you will find hundreds of villas and apartments for rent, the price of which starts from 1.5 thousand € for 10 nights.

In principle, if you compare this price with hotels, the difference will be insignificant. For the same 10 days in a 3-star hotel in any area of ​​the island, you will give an average of about 1.7 thousand €, and in a 5-star hotel - about 4 €.

If you take into account that you will cook on your own in your apartments, and use the all-inclusive service in hotels, then your costs will be approximately the same.

So it's up to you to decide which is more convenient, but I personally lived in a good 3-star hotel, where in addition to the all-inclusive food, there is a free gym, bar, pool and, of course, theme parties!

TOP 5 best hotels on the island

I want to present you my TOP 5 the best hotels islands:

  • Globales Simar 4 * (from 1.7 thousand € for 10 days for two).
  • Barcelo Ponent Playa 3 * (from 1.3 thousand € for 10 days for two).
  • Globales Palmanova 4 * (from 2.1 thousand € for 10 days for two).
  • Insotel Cala Mandia Resort & Spa 4 * (from 4.2 thousand € for 10 days for two).
  • Blue Bay Hotel 3 * (from 1.2 thousand € for 10 days for two).

You can navigate the prices for ready-made tours (with flights, transfers, accommodation and insurance) to hotels of different categories in the Trevelask section.

Expenses

So, if you decide to stay at a hotel, then there will be no problems with food, and if you decide to rent an apartment or a villa, then you have the option to buy in supermarkets, of which there are quite a few on the island. One of the most popular, often caught my eye - Eroski. This is a popular supermarket chain in Spain where you can buy everything from bread to hand cream at average Spanish prices.

If you buy groceries for a week, the average check will be about 60 €. You can also visit restaurants and cafes, which will turn out to be quite expensive, given that the average bill will be 50–60 €.

You can go on excursions both on your own and with a guide. Mallorca is a small island, from Palma you can get to Alcudia in just an hour and a half, that is, it will not be difficult to travel around the entire island up and down in one day.

You can rent a car for 50–70 € per day and go explore the island yourself, or you can travel by bus for only 6 €. Group tour with a guide on your own rented bus will cost about 100 €. A trip around the island by taxi will cost about 80–90 €.

Main attractions. What to watch

Mallorca is famous for its variety of attractions and incredibly beautiful places to visit.

If you like to find out all the smallest details and interesting facts about certain sights, you can hire a guide or book a full tour. And if you like to walk independently on beautiful places and independently discover something new, you can explore everything on your own.

It is worth choosing a day for the tour in advance, it is advisable to select one of the weekdays (except Friday), because on the weekends the locals have a siesta and rest, and there are too many people on the streets that will prevent you from seeing everything properly. Bad weather is extremely rare in Mallorca, so you should not be afraid of rain and cold weather, but you can still look at the forecast before the walk, just in case.

The island's capital, Palma, is no different large area, so you can walk around the city and see the main sights.

The map below shows the main tourist spots, museums, galleries, bus stops and more.

I bring to your attention my version of one day in the capital of the island of Palma, I advise you to travel by Citysightseeing tourist bus (ticket price 18.5 €):

  • 10:00 - we go to Bellver Castle, which is located a couple of kilometers from the city. Here we will spend about 2 hours.
  • 12:00 - we are on our way to the Spanish village.
  • 13:30 - stop for lunch at the author's restaurant Sadrassana Restaurant Cocteleria (Placa Drassana, 15).
  • 15:00 - we go to the cathedral. Since this place is considered the main attraction of the city, we will spend about 2 hours here.
  • 17:00 - we will go out to the main tourist streets of Palma and take a walk, go to the ice cream parlor Rivareno (Plaza Llotja, 1) and enjoy the most delicious cold dessert of the island.
  • 20:00 - dine with seafood at La Parada del Mar restaurant (Avenida Joan Miro 244 Marivent) and celebrate the end of a great day with a glass of sangria.

Top 5

Below I will give a list of places that, in my opinion, you should definitely visit in Mallorca in order to truly experience the atmosphere and culture of the island.

Cathedral

It is he who is one of the most iconic buildings on the island of Mallorca. The construction of the cathedral began in the 13th century, so now it is officially proclaimed a cultural and historical monument of the island. This place is truly extraordinary!

Inside, the cathedral is decorated with colored stained-glass windows by various masters, the main altar with four columns, which is decorated with a canopy made by Gaudí himself. Also here is one of the largest organs in Europe. Agree that this place should not be left unattended!

Address: Plaza Almoina, s/n, 07001 Palma de Mallorca.

Opening hours: Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 18:15.

Ticket price: 7 €/person

Cape Formentor

This is one of the most visited places on the island! To visit Mallorca and not come to Formentor is a real crime. Formentor is located near the town of Pollensa and its main port. Its length is about 300 meters above sea level, so the views here are incredible: such that it takes your breath away. It is impossible to explain, you need to evaluate it with your own eyes!

Address: Cap de Formentor.

Opening hours: around the clock.

Free admission.

Bellver Castle

A couple of kilometers from the city of Palma, on a hilltop, is the medieval castle of Castell de Belver. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that it is the only round-shaped Gothic castle in Europe built in the Middle Ages.

It used to be the summer residence of the King of Spain, and later served as a prison, the prisoners of which were such famous personalities as the writer Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos and the widow of King Jaime III. The castle has a large observation deck, which offers a beautiful view of Palma and its surroundings.

Address: Carrer Camilo José Cela, s/n, 07014 Palma.

Opening hours: 8:30-20:00.

Ticket price: 2.5 €/person

spanish village

Museum of Ceramics

In the northeast, not far from Palma, is the small town of Sa Cabaneta, which is considered the center of ceramics production.

nearby islands

If you will be relaxing in Mallorca, then I advise you to choose a day or a whole weekend and dedicate it to a trip to Ibiza.

Balearia ferries leave from the main port of Palma to the port of Ibiza several times a day. The duration of the trip is approximately 3-4 hours, the average ticket price ranges from 50 to 70 euros per person. There are also Transmediterranea ferries from Mallorca to Ibiza, but keep in mind that they only run on Sundays in the summer.

Details and schedule can be found on the official website of the company.

In Ibiza, you can walk around the capital of the island of the same name and look at its protective walls, which were erected here in the Middle Ages. It is also worth visiting the Punic Necropolis, and be sure to visit picturesque bay Cala d'Hort.

Food. What to try

At first, you might think that there are no traditional dishes in Mallorca, and that the usual Spanish gazpachos, tapas and tortillas are eaten there. But how surprised I was when I found out that this small island has its own national dishes that you will not try on the mainland.

Majorquina soup

It is a broth with vegetables and pork and is served with sliced ​​bread.

The soup is insanely delicious and very satisfying, which is why it is so loved by the locals.

Tumbet

It consists of vegetables, namely: potatoes, eggplant and onions.

And also meat or fish is added to them to taste.

Sobrasada

Be sure to try it - this is a moderately spicy minced pork and bacon sausage, very reminiscent of chorizo, popular in Spain, since their cooking technology is very similar.

Ensaimada

And for dessert, don't forget to enjoy this delicious Mallorcan puff pastry. It is rightfully considered the most favorite sweet of the locals.

Ensaimada dough is airy, melting in the mouth, the pie itself is filled with whipped cream or delicate syrup, and sprinkled with powdered sugar on top.

Beverages

Liqueurs are popular among local drinks: Herbas secas (dry) and Herbas dulces (sweet). They are infused with anise with the addition of various fragrant herbs.

A very popular aperitif on the island is the Palo drink, which is made by mixing sweet caramel with bitter cinchona bark.

San Rua carnival

A special holiday in Mallorca is the Sa Rua carnival. Here it is held in winter, in the first half of February.

Elegant residents in costumes take to the streets of the capital and arrange a procession. The carnival is held before the beginning of the Catholic Lent.

Mallorca Day

This holiday is celebrated on September 12, it was adopted by King James II back in 1276, when the island of Mallorca was liberated from Muslims.

On this day, concerts and fairs are organized on the island.

Safety. What to watch out for

Mallorca seemed to me very calm and safe place. Of course, pickpocketing, which is widespread in Europe, should not be ruled out, but in general, walking around Palma and its environs in the evening is not at all scary, because in summer life is in full swing until late at night.

In large stores and supermarkets, you will definitely not be deceived, and in small souvenir shops you can count your purchase amount and the change received just in case, although it is generally not common here to openly cash in on tourists.

Therefore, in Mallorca you should not beware of something serious, but still the basic simple safety rules should be observed.

Things to do

Mallorca has a lot of entertainment, you can explore all the beaches of the island and go snorkeling, or you can immerse yourself in its cultural life and visit the most important museums, temples and other historical sights of the island.

You can also go to Cape Formentor, admire the wonderful scenery and arrange a photo session there. Or go to the eastern part of the island to meet the owners of local farms and try their traditional dishes. Do not forget about shopping, you must definitely go to the center of leather products - the city of Inca. There are a lot of options, choose what you like about your soul and enjoy your vacation!

Ski holidays

conditional areas. Descriptions and Features

Mallorca is divided into 7 main areas:

  • metropolitan,
  • central,
  • northwestern,
  • south,
  • southwestern,
  • southeastern,
  • northeastern.

metropolitan area

Located closer to the southwestern part of the island, it is here that the main attractions and the residence of the royal family are located. If you want to be in the center of all events, then it is worth settling here.

The city itself is quite noisy, there are crowds of tourists walking around, it is very hot and stuffy during the day, so I recommend renting an apartment or staying in a hotel, which is located a few kilometers from Palma. I lived in the vicinity of Cala Major beach - this is a typical Spanish resort suburb, there are many hotels, cafes, shops, a large public beach and several museums. In general, an ideal place for those who like a measured, but not too boring holiday. Housing here will be more expensive than in other areas, since this is the capital, that is, the most important area of ​​the island.

southwestern region

This area of ​​the island is the most densely populated. Here are located such large cities as Illetas, Portals, Santa Ponsa, Paguera. It is best to come here with family and children, because in these places you can relax and enjoy the tranquility.

It is also here that the large golf club Bendinat is located, so the area is considered very prestigious and by no means cheap.

Northwestern region

Along the coast, in the shade of trees, townhouses and villas are located, which, if desired, can be rented for the summer, and here you can also observe beautiful mountain landscapes. Why not a heavenly place?

northern region

This area is famous for its unforgettable views and the cleanest beaches. It is here that the most high point islands - Cape Formentor, which offers a magnificent view of the sea. Housing in this place will be quite expensive due to the extraordinary beauty of nature and due to the proximity to the "star" villas.

The major cities of the region are Alcudia and Poyença. There is a port near Pollença from where you can sail around the island on a yacht.

Northeast of the island

It is distinguished by its beauty and serenity. Settling here, you will forget about all the problems and the bustle of the city.

In the area, you will find a large number of traditional rural houses and farms, and you can also interact with friendly locals, and they may invite you to taste oranges grown in their garden or home-made jamon (pork jerky).

Southeast

It is essentially very similar to the northeast, the occupation is also common here. agriculture and sailing, so if you want to get to know the local way of life and taste fresh fruits, vegetables and seafood, as well as immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the island, get to know its cultural and historical component, then this is a great option!

Southern part of the island

But it is famous for its long beaches, sports bars and noisy discos. The largest resort town is Arenal. It is here that the largest water park of the island is located, an amazing aquarium with sharks and rays, and many more bars. The place is considered quite budgetary for recreation, so all young people live in this part, respectively, the prices for living here do not bite compared to the costs in other areas.

If you like bright fun holiday, then you are here. A little to the south is the longest beach of the island - Es Trenc. It is characterized by white sand and light blue sea.

central part

These are picturesque estates, almond orchards, pastures and olive fields. Another great place to relax in peace, while being only half an hour from Palma.

Here is located Big City Inca, which is famous all over the world for the production of quality leather goods, as well as the city of Sineu, which is worth a visit to look at the magnificent churches and the former royal palace, as well as go to the largest fair on the island, which is held on Wednesdays.

I usually look for hotels on Booking - but you can check if there is a more attractive price anywhere.

Offers for renting private apartments can be viewed at the link.
